Description
Summary: Rolling Oaks Farm is a wonderful example of a labor of love and what sweat equity can produce. The original vision was to utilize the natural contours of the land in conjunction with construction of a residence to produce protected but aesthetically pleasing views. The vision was well executed, and what exists today is a testament to their forward thinking. The family farm is improved with a nicely appointed home situated on a ridge above a small pond and has a large barn with a second, small living area that would also function well as a man cave or an office. Overall, this is a wonderful property with very appealing features that need to be seen to be appreciated.
Land Characteristics: The property was recently surveyed and consists of 74.97 acres which are slightly irregular in shape. The property is estimated to have approximately 23 acres of rolling pasture and 51 acres of mixed timber as well as a half-acre pond with fountain. The pasture areas are located in the eastern and southwestern portions of the property, with mixed timber throughout the bulk of the central and northern portions of the property. Trails intersperse the mixed timber and offer access to most portions of the property for enjoyment of use. In addition to the mixed native timber, the caretakers of this property have planted many trees consisting of White Oak, Pecan, and other mast-bearing species, some of which are located close to the improvements and irrigated. The eastern portion of the property is bounded by CR 2525, which is a county-maintained blacktop road. The frontage portion of the property has wood rail fencing with additional field fencing wire added and a gated entrance with an automatic gate. The entire perimeter of the property has field wire fencing, which was added in an effort to limit access to the native wild hog population. The result of this is a property that is rich in wildlife but without the headaches related to hog rooting issues.
Terrain: Elevation on the main portion of the tract ranges from an approximate low of 280’ ASL near the southeast corner of the property to an approximate high of 360’ ASL. The higher elevations are located in the western and southern portions of the property and slope downward towards the main drainage where the lake has been constructed. A pond has been constructed in the northeastern portion of the property just below the main residence. This pond is estimated to be approximately a half-acre in size and is reportedly stocked with Perch and Catfish. This feature is a focal point for multiple rooms of the residence as well as the front patio and an outdoor sitting area situated on a ridge behind the home. The current owners have many wonderful stories of time spent observing the pond area and the wildlife that frequents the area.
