The owners have been good stewards of the land and have selectively removed cedar over the years. Other areas have been left undisturbed, which has left exceptional cover for the native wildlife. The landscape has a nice roll, dotted with live oak trees. There is a nice combination of rolling terrain with about 180’± of elevation change.

The ranch is well watered with five ponds on the ranch, two of which have been reliable over our most recent summer. The largest of the ponds is nearly one acre on the property's north end.

The ranch house is perched up on one of the main hills of the ranch, featuring 2,451± sf with four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The house was originally built around 1958 and added onto in 2002.

An attached single-car garage and a 300± sf workshop are nearby. Other improvements include an older dirt floor barn used to store hay.

Wildlife is in abundance with frequent sightings of whitetail deer, turkey, dove and feral hogs.

There is one operational water well on the ranch. The state well log indicates the well is capable of producing 100± GPM at 700'± deep. Additionally, there are five ponds on the property, two of which have been reliable over this past summer. The largest of the ponds is nearly 1± acre in size.
