Situated in the Northwest corner of Lamar County, roughly 25 minutes from Paris, Texas you will find E. Gregory Ranch, an approximately 47 acre slice of East Texas ready for its next owner/land steward. A paved roadway leads you from County Road 3717 to the primary residence located atop gently rolling hills offering inspiring views of serene pastureland and surrounding terrain. Mature pine trees provide excellent and abundant shade to the house and headquarters area adding a soft beauty that is the piney woods. The slow sloping terrain towards the southeast creates sufficient drainage to create an idyllic pond approximately 2.5 acres in size (at capacity) where great private fishing and waterfowling can be had. Ample, interior trails lead you past the pond to a heavily wooded area known to offer sanctuary to a variety of wildlife. An adjacent food plot pasture provides an easy and sufficient food source to local deer and passing feral hogs are known to frequent. The bottom pasture, just below the home, is a highly productive pasture historically used for hay production benefitting from the average east Texas rainfall total of 25 inches, annually.
