362 acres in Franklin County

The ranch sits just north of Mt. Vernon in Franklin County, Northeast Texas. It is about 1.5 hours from DFW, 1 hour from Texarkana, and 10 minutes north of Mt. Vernon. Lake Bob Sandlin and Cypress Lake are about 20 minutes away. The property has paved road frontage with gravel internal roads, and town is only 6 miles away for hardware and grocery stores.

The land rolls through highland meadows with rich, lush grass that has supported over 100 head of cattle with ease. Massive hardwood bottoms run through the lower ground, providing good cover and habitat. Open pastures offer wide views across the ranch. The mix of meadow, timber, and creek bottom gives this place versatility for both cattle and wildlife.

Water is well developed across the ranch. There are four spring-fed lakes suited for fishing, plus frontage on White Oak Creek. Duck sloughs have been developed with food plots and blinds. Nearby off-property fishing includes the Sulphur River, Lake Bob Sandlin, and Cypress Springs Lake.

The main home is a 4-bedroom, 3-bath house of approximately 2,100 square feet. It sits with sweeping views of the ranch and lake. Recent updates include a brand new roof, new heat pump, new storm cellar, and new generator. A 2-car garage provides storage space and includes a gun room.

The ranch is well set up for cattle and equipment. Fencing and cross fencing are in place along with working pens that have a covered area. A 40x100 hay barn holds up to 400 bales. A 65x80 equipment shed handles large machinery. There is also a 24x30 cabin with an open loft and a separate 20x24 garage.

Deer, turkey, wild hogs, ducks, and geese all use this property. The hardwood bottoms provide good deer and turkey habitat, and the developed duck sloughs with food plots and blinds are set up and ready to hunt. The four private lakes fish well, and the Sulphur River, Lake Bob Sandlin, and Cypress Springs Lake are all close by for additional fishing options.
