PROPERTY TAXES: $837.86 in 2025 with ag use exemption
DESCRIPTION: It is pure magic driving the ranch roads in the springtime when the wildflowers are in bloom. The contrast between the shade in the heavily wooded areas and sunshine in the open meadows; the elevation changes from the hill tops to deep draws is a study in diversity and provides a natural sanctuary for white tail deer, wild turkeys, and all sorts of other native wildlife. Sandstone outcroppings add interest and improved grasses in the lower fields offer the opportunity for excellent grazing and hay production. The land naturally has the habitat and native forage for both grazing and browse animals. There is no traffic noise; only the sound of the birds and wind in the trees. Come see!!!

TOPOGRAPHY: A topographical map shows that the County Road 131 on the east side of the ranch has an elevation of 1260 feet. There is an abrupt 100-foot elevation change up to the top of the bluff where the house is located and the reason for the incredible views. The land drops more gently toward the west side of the ranch to the edge of Turkey Creek with an elevation of about 1270 feet. Excellent tree cover of mostly oaks with juniper, mesquite and other native brush filling in. There are many potential home sites perfect for building your dream home or would be great to just keep it as a family get-away and a place to hunt.
SURFACE WATER: A nice water tank (pond) is located to the west of the house and Turkey Creek courses through the northwest corner of the ranch. Two tanks (ponds) are located at the base of the bluff, water capacity unknown. There are many other potential locations for additional tanks to capture rainwater runoff.
IMPROVEMENTS: An old but serviceable 3 bedroom/2 bath mobile home is located near the edge of a steep drop-off allowing amazing views of the surrounding countryside. A second metal roof covers the home and extends the length of the house on both the front and back providing covered porches and storage on both sides of the house. This second roof helps insulate the house and protect it from the weather. Stairs extend from the rear covered deck upwards to an elevated viewing deck. The view from the lower deck is wonderful but the distance you can see from the upper deck is truly amazing. The house is heated with space heaters and cooled with window units. House water is provided by Richland Springs Utility District. Propane tank is included. Septic system in place. Some furnishings including kitchen appliances will go with the house. A metal storage building and an old rock water reservoir are situated near the house. The ranch has very good perimeter fencing.
This is going to be someone’s favorite place. Call and make arrangements to see if it checks all the boxes on your wish list!
