Description of the Land
|
LOCATION: This quaint, bed and breakfast set up lies about 20 miles west of Fredericksburg on a quiet, paved country lane in an area of farmsteads and ranches that is delightfully rural. Driving distance is 11 miles to Harper (groceries, feed, limited supplies), 11 miles to Kerrville (hospital, big box stores and many restaurants) and nearby Fredericksburg is a mecca of fine restaurants, shops and interesting culture. San Antonio is about 60 miles SE and Austin is about 90 miles east.
LAND: The site is a clean rectangle, with the eastern end fronting on the paved county road for about 1,100’. The road frontage is appealing, with oak-studded pastures and clean field land. The terrain gently rolls into the central drainage with a rise and fall of about 80’ from top to bottom with great views of the surrounding Hill Country. Soils range from rocky clay to slightly deeper clay loam closer to the drainage, with limestone outcrops along the creek bed. These soils support adequate strands of native grasses, forbs and shrubs, and there is a small food plot near the primary drainage.
Hardwoods include several types of oak, and coverage varies from fairly thick to beautifully scattered motts, to open glades. Vegetation
provides excellent habitat for whitetail deer, turkey, dove, and songbirds. Other wildlife include, fox, coon, ringtail cat, skunk, opossum and bobcat. This would be a great place to roam with a 22 caliber rifle on a warm summer evening.
IMPROVEMENTS: The site is nicely improved and is currently operated as a rustic bed and breakfast rental when not used by the owners(recent income has been about $11,000/year).
Your 2,000 sq. ft. ranch cabin is decorated in a comfortable Texas Ranch décor and is situated in a grove of mature oaks, with three outbuildings to the rear, accessed by a crushed limestone base all-weather road. A real wood burning fireplace greets guests as they enter the dwelling. Gus & Woodrow from Lonesome Dove would be jealous of this 3BM/3BA cabin with Great Room, complete Cowboy kitchen, and dining hall with enough sleeping room for 8 without bumping elbows. Each bedroom features full, king or queen beds, most made by Texas craftsmen. The dining hall has two built-in recessed bunk beds, perfect for those little cowboys or cowgirls.
The Great Room is complete with entertainment center that holds the satellite television and VCR as well as your rifle or shotgun on the side. Your tired feet and worn out boots can rest on the rustic door coffee table. Your Stetson can rest on several handmade hatracks as this is a completely furnished ranch.
Outbuildings include an implement shed, storage building and 5 car/truck garage. The layout of the HQ area is well designed for efficiency of use as an access. Other improvements include adequate ranch roads, a nice pipe entrance with road front fencing, perimeter fencing of good quality including one side deerprooof.
WATER: The property is watered by an Edwards well with submersible pump, believed to be about 200’ in depth which serves the headquarters compound. There is also a seasonal creek passing through the site, with a permanent spring located in one section that always holds a small pool of water. For more information on ground wells, contact the Hill Country UWCD.
FINANCIAL/TITLE: PRICE REDUCED!!! Asking $955,00 cash to seller, mineral rights negotiable. Seller to provide current survey and basic title insurance. There are no known easements other than electric utility service line. The property is located in the Harper School District, and the 2008 taxes were $2575. The property is under an agricultural tax exemption.
SUMMARY: If you are looking for a well located, rural farmstead with easy access to all of the best of the Western Hill County, please consider a tour of this offering. The manageable size, charming improvements and useful recreational attributes combine to make 6M Ranch a solid opportunity for the family looking to make an affordably sized investment in this sought after area. The added benefit of rental income makes it all the more sensible!
