This 156 acre north Brown County property is a MUST SEE. Direct access is via county road 417 just a short distance off of paved FM 2273. Trophy whitetail deer, hogs, turkey, predators, and varmints abound. Huge live oaks, post oaks, blackjack oaks, red oaks, and elm trees cover the property from one end to the other. There are numerous dewberries and a thicket of hog plum trees that the current owners harvest each year for jelly (or homemade wine). There is a 30x40 metal building with a 20'x40' covered extension for parking trailers or side-by-sides. The entire barn is insulated to keep it cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The main part of the barn has a large roll up door for south breezes and there is even a wood stove in the barn to take out the chill on cold winter days. Inside the barn are also living quarters with kitchen, bathroom (with toilet and shower) and sleeping quarters that will easily sleep 6 (and could easily be rearranged to sleep more). There is a rain water collection system with large water capacity that could be increased, though the current owner has not had a need to do so. There is also a solar equipped well that feeds a water trough for wildlife and cattle - this well could be piped to the barn if the new owner desires. Property is fenced and condition ranges from fair to excellent. The property currently is used for running cattle and has ag exemption, which could be converted to a wildlife exemption if the new owner so chooses. There is one flood control stock tank on the wet weather creek that does not hold water long and a separate stock tank that has held water even during dry periods. The current owner feeds corn year round and has also fed protein from early winter until fall each year for the past 4 years. Deer are allowed to mature and several deer 5+ years of age have been seen through the years. The current owner harvested a deer that scored in the mid 160's and larger deer have been captured on camera. During the spring, turkeys roost in the trees surrounding the living quarters and the early mornings are filled with the gobbles of excited toms. Trails have been cut and maintained to provide access to all parts of the property. This is truly a turn-key, ready-to-go hunting ranch. Living quarters will be sold mostly furnished, with only a few personal items to be reserved. Owners are willing to convey 50% of owned minerals with a full price offer. Come see this Brown County beauty!
