Land: An abundant diversity of landscape is packed into this ranch featuring beautiful creek bottoms lined with large legacy oaks, productive hay pastures, and thick hardwoods.

Built in 1990, the home was made for hosting large groups and entertaining with numerous large gathering rooms and split living spaces. There are three separate stories in the house that can all accessed by the built-in elevator. The main floor features the master bedroom, kitchen, two living rooms and a professional office space, while the bottom story can also be accessed from the outside separately and can serve as a stand-alone living space. The front porch overlooks a gorgeous section of the creek tucked underneath large live oaks and the back porch has an elevated overlook of the back pasture creating a perfect vantage point to watch the wildlife pour out of the hardwoods into the fields at sunrise and sunset.
Water: The abundant water features on the ranch not only the idyllic setting for the ranch and the main house but provide plentiful year-round water sources for the wildlife and any livestock. Quihi Creek winds along the Eastern side of the ranch and has numerous deeper pockets and a string of several ponds run alongside the creek and pecan orchard before funneling into Quihi creek on the South end.

There are submersible wells and one windmill supplying water for the ponds and some irrigation for the pecan orchard.
Wildlife: The ranch holds a great number of whitetail deer and is also located in one of the best dove hunting regions in Texas.
