Location: The Lazy Lake Ranch is 68 miles east of Dallas, 8 miles northeast of Canton and less than 5 miles from Grand Saline in a desirable area. The address is VZ CR 1223, Grand Saline, TX 75140.

Directions: From Dallas, take I-20 E to FM 17 (just east of Canton, TX). Go 5 miles on FM 17 until County Road 1222. Go right on County Road 1222 and travel approximately 1 mile before turning left at the 'T' intersection.

Water: There is a good water well for household use and running water to the Horse Barn and Shop. A total of six bodies of water are located on the property and include 2 stock ponds, 1 brood pond, 1 deep pond (believed to be ~20-25 feet deep), a 10.6+/- acre lake and a 26+/- acre lake.

10.6+/- Acre Lake: The 10.6+/- acre lake is adjacent to the house which offers wonderful aesthetics and superb bass fishing. Artificial and natural structures have been added in years past to enhance the fishery. The previous ranch owner spent approximately $65K in fish and artificial structures. Several 8-9 lbs. bass have been caught. There is also a nice boat dock with a rope swing and stairs. An overflow pipe in the dam of the lake has been recently added. The drainage the lake is on carries a tremendous amount of water and there are believed to eb springs up above. The lake does slightly fluctuate during dry times; however it typically stays at a near constant level.

26+/- Acre Lake: The 26+/- acre lake is shared with a few neighbors who have residences across the lake. There is a Restrictive Covenant Agreement for homeowners to uphold the quality of the area. The lakefront homes are very well kept. The owner of Lazy Lake has approximately 1/2 of the lake frontage. The dam has been recently reconstructed and is setup nicely to support this fine body of water for years and years to come.

Wildlife: The ranch has not been hunted for whitetails in at least the last decade, but probably longer than that. The timber cover and abundant water offer a great habitat for whitetail deer and other wildlife species. There is one free choice feeder located on the pine covered hill that is covered with deer rubs.

Residence: The 1500+/- square foot home overlooks the 10.6+/- acre lake and has a nice back porch with scenic views. The attached garage is in great condition and offers buyers with the flexibility for additional storage space, or the option to expand the current living space. The home has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, with one bedroom serving as a bunk room which can accommodate 6 sleepers comfortably. The home has been recently remodeled and is in great condition.

Putting Green/Tee Boxes: For the golf enthusiast, or simply buyers looking for quality activities to entertain guests, the putting green and tee boxes offer great fun for all ages. The putting green is right at the water's edge, and adjacent to the house and campfire area. It is nicely landscaped and very high quality. There are 6 tee boxes in strategic locations to challenge even the most skilled golfer. There are scenic shots across the lake, through the woods and each tee box is landscaped with sandstone and artificial turf.

Fencing: The entire property is perimeter fenced, with several pastures/meadows for running cattle. There is also a significant amount of pipe fencing and cross fencing is good. The pipe fencing makes for an impressive drive to the house.

Topography: Topography on Lazy Lake Ranch ranges from a high point of 520' above sea level near the SW corner of the property down to a low of 420' above sea level at the 26+/- acre lake. The SW corner has great timber cover, and with selective clearing, could make for a very impressive home site in the future.

Both individuals are interested in continuing to assist if the new owner(s) so desires.
