Description of the Land
|
Location. Situated on one side of Salt Gap, this is one of the most spectacularly beautiful ranches in the northern Texas Hill Country. It sits astride the Brady Mountains, with over 250 feet of elevation change.
Terrain. Elevations reach 2030 feet on this gem of a ranch, giving it a climate much nicer than many areas in Texas. A high ridge runs east and west for 2 miles on the ranch, with stunning 30 mile views from end to end. There are a number of canyons and deep draws, making it really scenic. Numerous hardwood trees beautify the place; red oaks, shin oaks and live oaks abound. About 10% of the ranch is in improved grasses including klein grass and B. Dahl bluestem, plus 160 acres can be planted to wheat as well.
History.The region was pioneered in the 1860's, and countless head of cattle were trailed north in the cattle drive days through Salt Gap.
Improvements.The list of improvements includes 2 houses, 2 sets of pens, 3 barns, and a large shop building. The main house is an attractive rock home with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. The bedrooms are in a split design. The kitchen is roomy with an island and plenty of counter space. The den has a rock fireplace and great views. Just outside the den is a patio with a metal firepit. The house has an attached garage as well.
The large horse barn has an office and a restroom, and is in very good condition. In addition, there are 2 other barns; a sale barn with 2 restrooms and a hay barn. There are 2 sets of pens, very useful additions to a ranch.
Water.This is a well - watered property. The houses are supplied with community drinking water, plus there are 4 functioning water wells. For wildlife and stock water, there are 12 stock ponds distributed around the place.
Wildlife.This is excellent game habitat. Whitetail deer are plentiful, and quality bucks have been harvested here, up to a 188 inch deer. Free-ranging Axis deer can be seen, as well as turkey, dove, and many other native species.
Minerals. Some mineral interests may be included with the sale and are dependent upon negotiations.
Taxes.Less than $6000 a year. Price. $1995 per acre.
Comments. This is such a great ranch. It has all the improvements most people would want, plenty of water, gorgeous scenery, and lots of recreational opportunities. If I could afford it, it would be off the market quickly. |
