SRK River Ranch 1,244.90+/- Acres

The Ranch property contains 1,236 acres of land located along northeast side of FM 500, about one mile north of CR 215 and approximately fifteen miles northwest of San Saba in San Saba County, Texas. The property offers a wide variety of topographical relief from gently sloping improved pasture to rolling and steeply sloping native pasture. The property provides a total change in elevation of about 180 feet with the main drainage features being Cottonwood Creek, Turkey Creek and there is approximately a 1/4 mile of Colorado River frontage. Sandy loam soils typical of the neighborhood are dispersed over the subject with numerous sandstone outcrops on the upland native pastures. Tree cover consists of a variety of oak, elm, hackberry, sycamore, willow, pecan and mesquite trees. The property has been well-maintained over time with very little cedar tree regrowth. It has a desirable mixture of land types with about 100 acres in open improved pasture and the balance being in wooded native pasture. There are numerous earthen stock tanks on the property which reportedly hold water throughout the year. A private well and meters from Richland Springs WSC provide potable water to the dwellings and livestock water troughs. The entire property is enclosed within standard height barb wire fencing in good condition. Wildlife species on the ranch are typical of the neighborhood, including whitetail deer, hog, turkey, dove and quail. Several of the earthen tanks are also stocked with bass. The area has historically been owned in larger ranch units with trends over the past thirty years toward division into smaller units.
