Nestled deep within the countryside, Double LJ Ranch cuts through significant land holdings with little to no thru traffic. An entrance at the end of a dirt road accesses the driveway leading through the headquarters and just far enough up the hill to provide vast countryside views without the hilltop winds. This remodeled house comes adorned with charming farmhouse architectural features and has a roomy kitchen and dining area. A sizeable primary bedroom lets one set out gear and unload quickly and comfortably. Guests have plenty of room, with two bedrooms fitting two sets of full-sized bunk beds currently used as bunk rooms. A unique extra, especially for Texas, is an elevator-accessible basement! A backyard extra is the nearby Catfish Pond, which has yet to dry. This extraordinary body of water sits within one's eyesight from the house with giant cottonwoods and a fishing dock.
A large, flat-topped hill encompasses the northwestern portion of the property and provides an oasis of seclusion for the charming house. A short drive from the house, further up the hillside, reveals dramatic views and another fishing pond loaded with bass and a dock. Postoak-covered hills hold ample wildlife and provide another draw with more surface water potential. Rolling elevation throughout the southern portion of the ranch offers multiple draws, supplying four other ponds with runoff. As the terrain rolls, the tree cover turns to a mix of elm and mesquites with large live-oak clusters. Another post oak thicket creates a natural barrier to holding wildlife on the ranch, even when riding through with family and friends.
Double LJ comes with new 6-strand barb-wire fences and a path around the perimeter. A pipe fence encloses the headquarters, including a metal shop with remodeled living quarters, concrete flooring, and insulation. Each of the four pastures is cross-fenced with UTV roads, providing access to the other ponds and hunting blinds. This portion of Young County, just south of the Brazos River and north of the Clear Fork of the Brazos, is well known for its outstanding whitetail and abundant wildlife. Double LJ Ranch is a turnkey ranch offering the kind of privacy most desire in a ranch purchase, yet only a few ever acquire the pleasure.
