Exceptional High-Fenced Game Ranch Offering - 392 +/- Acres of Prime Hunting and Agricultural Land--- This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well established high-fenced ranch, encompassing two adjoining tracts that have been in the same families for over 60 years. This 392 +/- acre property is offered as a single package, combining a 284 +/- acre tract and a 108 +/- acre tract-both meticulously managed for wildlife and agricultural use. These two parcels have been closely integrated over the years, with the owner of the 284-acre tract leasing the 108-acre parcel for nearly 30 years. As such, the two must be sold together. This property is divided between Caldwell County and Gonzales County. This walk-away offering includes everything you need to step in and start enjoying the property immediately, with the seller leaving behind an extensive array of tools, equipment, furnishings, deer stands, feeders, and more. Among the property's many improvements is a well-maintained 28'x60' modular home featuring three bedrooms and two bathrooms, as well as a 12'x30' bunkhouse. Additionally, you'll find a 30'x60' open-front metal barn and an 8'x10' walk-in cooler for processing game. Property Highlights: **Infrastructure and Equipment: The sale includes a 50 hp, 4WD Kubota tractor with loader, two Kawasaki Mules, and two Honda 4-wheelers, all of which contribute to the property's functionality and ease of operation. **Land and Terrain: Roughly 70% of the land is covered in brush, with 30% open for agricultural or recreational use. The soil varies from sandy loam to iron ore-covered areas, providing a unique landscape with a mix of natural beauty, large boulders, and utility. Four stock tanks are strategically placed across the property, two of which can be consistently replenished by well-fed water sources to ensure year-round availability. **Water and Utilities: Water is supplied by two private wells feeding two of the stock tanks, with additional access to Aqua Source public water on both tracts. The property is also fully electrified, making it easy to build a home or additional structures on the most scenic sections of the land. **High-Fenced and Wildlife Management: The entire perimeter is enclosed by high fencing, and a 13-acre high-fence trap is located at the northern end. The property serves as a sanctuary for an impressive variety of wild game, including an estimated one hundred fifty whitetail deer, sixty axis deer, sixty blackbuck antelope, one hundred red stag, six red sheep, and seventeen scimitar oryx. All feral hogs have been removed from the property. The seller maintains a modest hunting program with selective sales. The animals are supplemented with high-protein feed in addition to grazing on native grasses and brush. **Access and Location: The property is easily accessible, with approximately 4,689 feet of paved county road frontage along the southern boundary and 609 feet of paved county road frontage on the northern end. This ensures convenience for transportation and future development. **Additional Features: Runway: A 2,800 +/- foot grass airstrip is located on the property. While it has not been used in many years, it could be revitalized with minimal effort for private aviation needs. **Tax Benefits: The property benefits from a wildlife exemption, keeping property taxes at an attractive rate. This stunning ranch is a hunter's paradise and a versatile property for various uses, from wildlife management to agricultural production, to development. Whether you're looking for a recreational retreat, a working ranch, or a long-term investment, this offering provides exceptional value and potential. |
