Acreage:                  4,550+

Address:                  Off of Salem Road Victoria,TX 77901

Location:                  This ranch is located ~5 miles east of Victoria, near Loop 463. With the growth of Victoria continually increasing in the eastward direction, this property rests in a prime location.

Terrain:                    The ranch terrain consists of flat prairie, gently rolling coastal prairie and gently rolling dense brush and trees. Soil type consists mainly of dark clay and sandy loams which contribute to the dense amounts of grass and forage this property sustains.

Vegetation:               This property is covered in native brush, consisting mainly of Live Oak and Post Oak with the intermingling of many other types of trees and brush. The native grasses include, but are not limited to, Bahia, Bluestem, Bermuda and an improved portion of Bahia.

Recreation:               The area in which the ranch is located supports many different species of wildlife. The Ducks Unlimited Pond contributes to excellent winter duck hunting. There are many species of birds, including quail, dove and turkey. This ranch has outstanding potential to be a remarkable deer hunting property. Deer are very abundant, in addition to feral hogs. High fencing this ranch could make for a five star hunting and management program.

Utilities:                    Electricity

Water:                      Water on the ranch is ample. Garcitas and Willow Creek run through the property and continually shed water. In addition, there are 5 submersible wells and 1 windmill that feed 8 or more troughs. The water table on majority of the property is only 100 ft deep or less. The ranch is also improved with a Ducks Unlimited Conservation pond which holds water nearly year round.

Improvements:        The headquarters of the ranch consists of a ranch house and a large set of working pens with a built in scale and loading chute. In one particular area on the property, there is a set of small sheds and barns supplied with electricity. An old homestead and domestic water well also lie in this area. The perimeter fencing is in good shape, and in some areas, the fencing is new. The current owner is continually building new fences to replace old, worn out sections. Many of the interior roads are gravel and are in pristine condition. There are many low water crossings constructed of concrete. In one area, a concrete bridge crosses Garcitas Creek.

Taxes:                      Approximately $10,000 per year.

Minerals:                 Surface only.

Agriculture Use:     This ranch was used primarily for cattle operations in the past, however, the current owner has not grazed the property for quite some time. The ranch was one of the original gathering places for cattle in the early 1900's for the surrounding Victoria county area.

Flood Plain:             The majority of the ranch is located in the 500 year floodplain. A small portion of the property surrounding the creeks resides in the 100 year floodplain. There is positive runoff on the ranch during times of rain.

Additional:              Words simply cannot do this ranch justice. Seeing the ranch for yourself would be the optimal way for visualization. With many ranches being divided up and sold in smaller parcels these days, this property remains unique in that it is a sprawling 4,500 acre tract only minutes from a large city.

Price:                       $3,400 per acre
