Located in one of the most fertile areas of Northeast Texas, River Oaks Ranch is a property that cattle producers dream about!
Boasting over 2.5 miles of Sulphur River frontage, and lying within its basin of fertile soils, the acreage is ideal for producing forage. An average annual rainfall of 46 inches maintains water for stock tanks and grass growth. Current ownership has carefully sculpted the landscape to maximize production and utilization of the property. Fencing is well above average and has been meticulously maintained. Miles of cross-fencing and lanes increase carrying capacity and functionality. Grasses are highly improved and a rigorous herbicide spraying program has been implemented. Two sets of covered cattle working facilities are strategically located on the property. Property has a carrying capacity of approximately 500 AU.
A carefully-constructed and well-maintained ...
A carefully-constructed and well-maintained road system leads to the majority of the ranch structures. In extreme seclusion, at two miles from the highway and behind a gated entrance, the ranch home is of quality construction and just over 2,100 square feet of heated and cooled space. The house has another 1,000 square feet of covered outside space and a nice patio. Additional structures include a large multi-bay shop, equipment shed, three quality hay barns dispersed across the property, and feed storage tanks. County water has also been introduced across the majority of the ranch for additional livestock watering sources. While the property has all of the adequate, high quality infrastructure needed to facilitate a successful operation, it has not been over-improved with structures that carry high tax bills and maintenance requirements.
The property's terrain can be described as gently rolling with scattered mature trees for shade and aesthetics. Adding to the recreational value and livestock water needs of the ranch is a 50-acre lake. This water body could also easily accommodate irrigation needs if desired. It is a huge attractant to waterfowl traveling the river corridor. Multiple other sizable water features and smaller stock ponds add to the landscape of the ranch. Riparian corridors and selective tree mottes have been selectively left as wildlife habitat. White-tailed deer are numerous and of trophy quality and bald eagles are regularly viewed.
Six miles from eating and gas in Roxton, TX, less than twenty miles from all the amenities of Paris, TX, and only ninety miles from downtown Dallas, TX, the ranch is in an ideal location.
