891 County Road 139, Palestine, TX 75801 - Anderson County

Located only 2 hours southeast of Dallas and just over 2 hours north of Houston, this +/- 413 acre ranch has it all! The beautiful rolling pastures converge into a pristine lake teeming with a variety of fish. In total, the ranch offers approximately 200 acres in grazable pasture and the remainder in mature plantation pine mixed with pockets of hardwoods. In addition to the central lake, the property includes 3 stock ponds for ample watering sources.

The residential compound is located on the north end of the ranch and features a 5,000+/- SF residence, indoor entertainment area with indoor swimming pool, multiple barns and workshops.

The Ranch is crossed by Anderson County Road 139 with the main hilltop Headquarters, barns, shop, guest apartment, indoor pool, outbuildings and orchards situated on the north side of the road. Sunsets (and sunrises) are amazing from the front and back porches.

The larger portion of the property is on the south side of 139. The cattle pens are accessed easily from 139 at the hilltop and have an excellent design for moving livestock, The fencing bordering the road is metal pipe fencing. The ranch perimeter is fenced with 9 strands of barbed wire. It has cross fencing which makes it easily used for rotational grazing. There is a large coastal hay field, a central lake stocked with bass and crappie, two catfish ponds and several other stock tanks and creeks that run through the eastern and western quarters and eventually join up below the lake, winding down through no mans land.the southern tip of the ranch covered with lush pines. There are several places to expand the lake or build another one.

The view from the hilltop (a great building site) behind the working pens, you can look out and down the hill, across the ponds and hayfields, fences and lakes, past layers of pines and meadows to the crest of the next hill on the horizon to the rows of maturing pines planted in the 90s that circle the entire ranch. Appx. 150 acres of pines were planted along the creeks and low areas and around the ranch perimeter, considering the view in the process. Everything you see is part of the ranch. On a summer night, the only lights you can see are the stars. This is a priceless experience. In the winter in the east you can see a tower through the bare trees. And this is all just a 7 minute drive from town and the hospital. It feels like you are the only ones for miles around. Of course, the reverse view is completely different. Riding horses or four wheelers to the top of the back hill, sitting on a bench in the shade and seeing a working ranch with barns, cattle and a tower (a source of rental income).
