Location: This property is located in west central Fayette County, about a mile west of the small rural community of Muldoon, TX. It is a 100-mile drive from Houston and a 60-mile drive from Austin. Flatonia and La Grange are close drives (10-20 minutes) for supplies and restaurants. The ranch has 2,000 feet of frontage on paved FM 2237.
Terrain: The terrain is made up of gently rolling hills with elevation changes over 75 feet, the highest elevation being 380 feet. The soil ranges from clay loam in the fertile bottoms to loamy and fine sand on the hilltops. Over 65% of the ranch is heavily wooded with large live oak, post oak, elm, and cedar, with the balance being large live oak scattered pasture. One live oak tree in particular is 26 feet diameter, and estimated to be 300 years old. Live Oak Creek makes up the western border of the property with nearly a mile of seasonal creek frontage. The topo changes offer several natural drainages flowing rainfall to the creek bottom, as well as some beautiful views from the hilltops. There is some flood plain along the creek, but most of the ranch is high and dry.
Water: The ranch has good surface water, including a 1.5 acre bass lake near the house, and two other ponds ranging from 1/4 to 3/4 acres in size. There are 2 water wells on the property, one equipped with an electric submersible and one that is capped, with 3-phase power nearby. Water is supplied to the house from Fayette County Water line. Live Oak Creek flows water in normal rainfall years, and in drought years, holds pools of water up and down the creek.
Hunting: The ranch is very lightly hunted. There are whitetail deer, turkey, and hogs on the property. The ranch has plenty of water and fertile habitat and is surrounded by wooded properties, so retains its wildlife quite well. One can also do some dove hunting and duck hunting around the lakes.
Improvements: Overlooking the lake, the ranch house is a 1,700 square foot 3 bed/2 bath brick house, which was updated 7 years ago with flooring, countertops, fixtures, and appliances. It has an attached 2 car garage, and 500 square feet of covered porches. The furniture is negotiable. The perimeter and interior fencing is in excellent condition, consisting of 5-strand barbed wire, and segmenting the ranch into 4 pastures for cattle rotation. There is 3 phase power available on the property. The interior road system is great, with over a mile of improved gravel roads on the ranch, as well as well-cut trails through the more heavily wooded areas.
Minerals: Seller owns a portion of the mineral rights, which are negotiable with an acceptable offer. No current lease, and no production currently on the property.
