Go to CR 186 and turn left at the stop sign. Turn right onto CR 194. The ranch will be a short distance on the right. This is a corner property with a gated entry, located in the Jim Ned CISD.

The land runs flat to rolling with post oak groves throughout. The terrain has a Hill Country feel, which is uncommon this far west in Taylor County. The current sellers have put in serious work clearing land and planting a large variety of grasses. That effort earned them Conservationist of the Year recognition. The property is cross-fenced and well-managed for year-round use.

There are two large stock tanks on the property. Both tanks carry blue catfish, including some big ones. The tanks support livestock, wildlife, and recreational fishing.

The ranch house was built in 1984 and offers 2,467 sq. ft. of living space. It has 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths. The kitchen is large and well-appointed. There is a spacious dining room and a fireplace. The garage is a full-size attached unit with additional covered parking. Out back, there is a saltwater swimming pool with open ranch views and plenty of room to entertain.

The ranch has three barns: a 50x50 barn, a 50x38 barn with roll-up doors, and a 16x46 barn. The property has a gated entry and is cross-fenced. The home has been updated with all-new features throughout.

Wildlife on the ranch includes whitetail deer, turkey, hogs, dove, quail, and varmints. The current sellers feed year-round and manage selectively, which has produced healthy populations across the board. The combination of good grass, oak cover, and water makes this place hunt well in every season.
