A 3,250± sf metal barn, constructed in 2022, is in immaculate condition and ideal for a car collection, workshop, and much more. The east side of the property boasts Marshall Creek, which runs for 1,450’± and is a beautiful attribute with sycamore and cypress trees lining its bank. The southwest side of the ranch has a section of Middle Creek frontage which adds to the allure of the ranch. The landscape on the ranch is fantastic, with massive post oaks dotting the terrain and a thick selection of native grasses. Tremendous attention to detail results in a park-like setting. Underground utilities are in place. There are improved crushed granite roads that tie in all of the improvements. The ranch is under an Ag Exemption. There are three water wells. This is an incredible opportunity to own a turnkey ranch just minutes from town.

Property Details

OVERVIEW

Rare opportunity to acquire 248 +/- acres in the Willow City area, less than 12 miles from Main ST, 1700+ foot of frontage on HWY 16 plus access to the western portion of the property from Weidenbach Rd (privately maintained, paved road). Very diverse soil conditions ranging from sandy loam/heavy clay/ caliche with very little rock. Some coastal bermuda pasture is already in place but much more could be added to increase carrying capacity of cattle and there are multiple areas for the horse enthusiast to construct an arena without having to bring in soil. Approximately 15 acres near the western portion is high fenced and planted in grapes and part of the highway frontage also had grapes but have been removed due to age and attrition, infrastructure is still in place for irrigation and trellis. There is outstanding potential for several ponds to be installed along the southern boundary where a draw carrying a significant amount of runoff transverses the property from the west to the east. The home on the property is certainly very livable but needs updating, nice setting with post oaks. Pool, detached garage, even sml greenhouse. There are multiple sites for a new home, one of those has great views, electric in place and two of 5 wells right there. Three of the wells are permitted for irrigation, wells range from 30-100 GPM! Located near the vineyard is a 2600 SF metal building for equipment & supplies. Corrals & working pens. Property also has several access points along Weidenbach Rd (a paved private road) via an easement giving you an easy route to those home sites with views and the western portion of the ranch. About half of the southern boundary just received a new fence.
