Description

LOCATION: The ranch boasts excellent accessibility with asphalt road frontage along County Road 4560, approximately 4.5 miles southeast of Winnsboro, TX, 14 miles northeast of Quitman, TX, 16 miles east of Lake Fork Reservoir, and 90 miles northeast of Dallas city center. Given its proximity to these locations, the ranch offers a balance of rural and urban convenience. Residents can easily commute to Dallas for work, dining, and entertainment while enjoying the ranch environment. This blend of accessibility and seclusion makes the ranch attractive for those seeking a peaceful lifestyle without sacrificing the benefits of urban amenities. The well-maintained asphalt road ensures smooth and reliable travel to and from the ranch, enhancing its appeal for potential buyers who prioritize both convenience and reliable access.

OVERVIEW: The 153.5+/- acre Wood County recreational ranch is a versatile and well-balanced property ideal for wildlife production, general recreation, and as a prime location for either a primary or secondary home. Its convenient proximity to the D/FW Metroplex area and the quaint town of Winnsboro, TX, add to its charm, providing easy access to small-town amenities and a welcoming community. The ranch's diverse landscape and abundant natural resources make it perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and wildlife management. Additionally, the property holds significant potential for future investment while providing a scenic, functional retreat with excellent privacy. Its unique combination of recreational opportunities, wildlife habitat, and strategic location ensures that the ranch remains a valuable and enjoyable asset for years to come.

IMPROVEMENTS: The notable improvements to the property include the centrally located pond and electricity running through the property.

TREES, GRASSES, FORBS AND SOIL: The property features a diverse tree canopy comprised primarily of hardwood and oak species throughout the landscape. The trees' varied age structure of 20-25 years creates an ideal environment for wildlife habitat. The mature oaks assist in wildlife food resources and provide nesting sites for various bird species, while the younger hardwoods offer shelter and cover for small mammals and other wildlife. This well-managed forested area enhances the property's natural beauty and supports a thriving ecosystem, making it an excellent choice for a recreational ranch buyer. The forested areas add to the property’s recreational and aesthetic value while providing a serene, picturesque setting for outdoor activities and wildlife observation. Native grasses blanket open areas, and rich forbs, including Illinois Bundleflower, thrive in transition areas. Tree cover comprises approximately 80% of the property. The soil composition on the ranch consists primarily of deposits of the Wilcox soil groups, which generally exhibit sandy surface layers with clay-dominant subsoils. The soils are fertile and lend well to wildlife food plots.

WATER: The pond’s coloration and central location on the property offer a visually appealing feature that potential buyers will find attractive. The pond’s aesthetic charm enhances the overall landscape, making the property more inviting. While the pond’s water level may fluctuate during drought periods, it still provides substantial recreational value while contributing to the property's ecological diversity and appeal. Stout Creek further adds to the property's outstanding features. It maintains water year-round, which is a significant advantage. The creek contributes to the ranch's scenic beauty and provides a reliable water source for wildlife. Its perennial nature ensures that even during dry seasons, there is a continuous water flow, essential for maintaining the health and vitality of the land. The presence of the ponds and Stout Creek makes the property an ideal investment for those seeking a ranch with water features.

TOPOGRAPHY: The ranch's topography undulates east to west, creating an appealing landscape. The highest point is located on the eastern side at approximately 580 feet, offering excellent vantage points and scenic views. The lowest point is on the western side at 470 feet, resulting in a total elevation change of 110 feet.

WILDLIFE AND FISHERIES: Abundant tree cover and forbs foster a robust Whitetail Deer population. Feral hogs, dove, and other smaller game can also be found on the ranch. Duck hunting opportunities are supported by the pond located central to the property. Fishing opportunities exist within the pond and creek located on the property. Trophy bass fishing abounds on nearby Lake Fork Reservoir. Due to fishery management efforts of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, which began stocking the reservoir with Florida largemouth bass in 1978, the lake is a world-renowned trophy bass haven. The current state record largemouth bass weighing 18.18 pounds was caught from Lake Fork Reservoir in January 1992.

FENCING: Fencing is in fair condition on two sides of the property.

UTILITIES: Rural electricity runs into the property and is provided by Wood County Electric Cooperative.

EASEMENTS: The only easements known to the Broker are for residential electricity.

PROPERTY TAXES: Ask Broker for details.
