Salt Gap Ranch

Enjoy beautiful 2,000± asl views at the top of the Brady Mountains, which run along the south boundary of the ranch. The current owner enjoys sharing the scenery with friends and family from a picnic area located at one of the highest points. Elevation at the base of the mountain rests at 1,800± asl and gently rolls in a northeast direction to 1,700± asl across the remainder of the property. The terrain provides a tremendous amount of diversity. There are nice pockets of bottomland with tillable soils that could be transitioned into food plots. Quality brush cover with a nice mix of mesquite, oak, and juniper for wildlife. A healthy selection of native grasses sprawl across the landscape. The seller has created nice food plot areas on the land.

The headquarters includes a fenced-in main home, a quaint guest house, and a sizeable enclosed barn with an attached covered shed. These improvements have been well thought out but have not been overdone. The 2,400± sq ft main home overlooks the ranch with four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms. Constructed with exceptional taste, the home has a vaulted wood ceiling, spacious living room, sizeable kitchen, and upstairs loft. The centerpiece of the cozy living room is a stone fireplace that is sure to be a favorite spot in the wintertime. The kitchen includes an island bar, a walk-in pantry, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of cabinet space. The two bedrooms located downstairs each have their own bathroom. The upstairs loft is sizeable and perfect for overflow guests with two additional beds. The private wing of the home includes a spacious master bedroom, master bathroom, and office with a separate bathroom. Outside the home is a nice covered porch area with an outdoor fireplace. The guest house, referred to as Casa Verde, is a cozy two-bedroom / two-bathroom house equipped with central heat and air. Casa Verde has a small kitchen, a full bathroom, and two bedrooms. This is a perfect additional space, optimal for overflow guests. The 2,000± sq ft corrugated steel tin barn is built on a concrete slab. The insulated structure has electricity and a 10± ft roll-up garage door, making it easy to pull in a vehicle or ATV. Connected to the barn is an 800± sq ft covered equipment shed. The shed is lighted and makes for a nice covered skinning area that is out of the weather.

Wildlife on the ranch includes whitetail deer, excellent quail hunting, dove, and a healthy turkey population. The current blinds and feeders on the ranch will convey with the sale.

The ranch is on the Millersview-Doole rural water system, which provides water to the main home, Casa Verde guest house, and 4± troughs that are strategically located across the ranch. Quality surface water with 4± stock tanks, the largest located in the northwest corner.
