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.

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