Wild Life: The ranch has abundant wildlife, including whitetail deer, turkeys, dove, Axis deer, and wild hogs. Wildlife is fed year-round and not hunted.

Water: There is a 982 deep well. The owner built a 12X12 pump house with no expense spared and installed a whole home & cabin reverse osmosis system. To ensure ample water storage, the owners have placed a 1,000-gallon water tank that stores the purified water and a 4,000 gallon 4 concrete ring cistern for the raw water. There is also a 700-gallon constant level concrete water trough for the cattle and wildlife.

Vegetation & Habitat: The ranch has excellent elevation transitions from level terrain where the house is located to seasonal creeks and hills at the back corners. There are beautiful hill country views everywhere. Live Oaks are abundant throughout the property, with a mix of other native Oaks, Mountain Laurel, and Persimmon. The owner cleared 15 acres of Cedar, and the rest of the property has Cedar clearing in process. The open fields are now returning to permanent native grasses, providing grazing for the cattle.
