Skipper Ranch Encino Texas, Brooks County
This rare historic South Texas Ranch is ready for new owners. The Skipper Ranch originated in the late 1930's with over 10,000 acres. For sale today are approximately 815+- acres of prime South Texas habitat that is rarely seen on the market. Along with the acreage is a beautiful 3000sf Spanish Style Hacienda built in the 1930's that has been restored by the current owners. Also situated on the property is a new 3275sf lodge and a completely remodeled 728sf Bunk House. All 3 houses combined will sleep 24 very comfortably. All offer a variety of outdoor spaces for entertaining, BBQ'ing, or just plain relaxing. The 2 no maintenance Bat Houses keep the mosquitoes away so you can have outdoor enjoyment all year long. For cooler nights and within the compound, the large fire pit with seating is a true joy.
Additional improvements to the ranch are the large enclosed barn and the 3 sided implement barn, both with concrete flooring. This ranch is paved from the highway through the housing compound with various parking areas, some covered. Remaining roads out on the ranch are all weather access and easy to navigate. The front pond is ideal for "kid" fishing with its palapa covered dock and seating area. (stocked with Bass, Tilapia and Perch) A lighted fountain helps aerate the pond and provides a beautiful scene from the patios. The 6 acre lake out on the ranch has a beautifully landscaped Palapa style gathering area with a walkway to an additional fire pit. The area is neatly fenced so the animals won't eat the plants and flowers. The lake has 2 docks and a swim platform for tons of outdoor fun, and is stocked with Bass, Catfish, Tilapia, and Perch. This lake is set up with a state of the art aeration system to allow for maximum oxygen flow.
The ranch contains 3 fenced food plots that are set up with sprinkler type irrigation, Cattle Pins, Shooting Range and 4 additional ponds. The property is completely high fenced and contains 4 water wells. Conveying in the sale are 13 protein feeders, 13 electric corn feeders, 8 fiberglass blinds/stands, 5 tripods, 3 fish feeders, 500 gallon diesel tank, 300 gallon gas tank, 18 ton divided bulk silo, 2 ton feed auger cart, 8ft x 8ft walk-in cooler and 2 irrigation reels.
Wildlife is abundant on the Skipper Ranch! Trophy Class Whitetail deer herd, Axis, Blackbuck, Aoudad, Fallow, Javelina, lots of Game Birds as well as many colorful seasonal birds. Hardly a dull moment.
