The wooded southeast corner of the property is a mature and diverse niche filled with walnut, blackjack, post oak, live oak, elm, pecan, yaupon, and hoptrees. The sandy soil in the open pasture provides a great terrain for native grasses and potentially improved grasses. Wildflowers are prolific in the springtime. A perfect home site exists between mature live oaks next to the existing utility building for a future garage or barn. The neighbor currently leases the property for cattle grazing. No mineral rights are included in the sale.
Seasonal Ecleto Creek crosses the southeast corner of the property through the woods. A pond is located near the front, and a water well services the house. A large portion of the property lies within the 100-year floodplain, excluding the northwest corner and southeast wooded corner across the creek. See attached maps.

IMPROVEMENTS & UTILITIES
The 1,500 sq. ft. metal storage building near the middle of the property has a concrete floor, roll-up doors, and is completely insulated. The old farmhouse near the front is now used as a hunting cabin. It is 632 sq. ft. with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, kitchen, living area, and 136 sq. ft. screened-in covered porch. A set of cattle pens are behind the house. There is an all-weather rock road leading from the nearly half-mile of FM 1681 frontage back to the barn. The large pasture is completely fenced for cattle, while the eastern border is currently marked with t-posts at the boundary and a fence will be needed to complete the perimeter.
A water well and septic are located at the house, and electricity is provided by GVEC. Utilities do not currently run to the barn.
----------
WILDLIFE & HUNTING
Hunting is permitted. Lots of whitetail deer and hogs reside in the thick woods and travel the lower creekside. Predators include coyotes, bobcats, barn owls, and red-tailed hawks. Varmints include armadillos, skunks, squirrels, possums, and raccoons. They thrive on the crawfish, frogs, and minnows in the pools of the seasonal creek.
----------
TAXES
The property has an agricultural valuation via a grazing lease and 2019 taxes were $1,430. For the buyer interested in the wildlife management valuation, Plateau Land & Wildlife is offering a free consultation. See agent for details.
