Land: The 40.21 acres that make up the Arikota Valley Ranch are some of the finest in the hill country. Various Oak, Walnut, Cherry, Cedar, and other types of trees are scattered throughout the acreage creating beautiful scenery and good wildlife habitat. Much of the valley area of the property tucked between 2 hills has been meticulously cleared and maintained making a gorgeous pasture just west of the home and barn. Deep draws and rolling hills along the rest of the property diversify the property and make it feel much larger than it is. A high fence runs along the west boundary of the property. The south and east boundary is a low fence.
Water: There is a small pond on the south side of the property that overflows into a seasonal creek going through the middle of the property below the house and the barn. This creek flows into a 2nd pond on the north edge of the property that has recently been expanded to a much larger size.
The home and barn are supplied by a mid-Trinity water well with a 1,500 gallon storage tank and pressure tank protected by an insulated well house. Equipment also includes a water softener and instant hot water circulating system.
