MIGHTY OAK RANCH
This Hill Country Ranch is a true gem with everything you could want in a manageable-sized parcel of a central Texas Ranch; Hill Country VIEWS from the three bedroom, two bath plus half-bath two-story home; barns and working pens, two creeks, fertile field north end, wooded area south end, and a range of wildlife, all just eight miles southeast of downtown Kerrville.

The property begins after crossing the center of Turtle Creek [which forms the north boundary] and following the driveway through a wooded tunnel of cypress and oak trees. The road turns into a large field of approximately 14 acres, perfect for a hay field. Continuing up the hill on the asphalt driveway leads you through more oak trees and limestone cliffs. At the top of the hill through a gate is the spacious homestead. This area is mostly pasture-land dotted with Oaks. The south portion has groups of fruitful pecans, expansive oaks, persimmon, elm, and cedar. Open grassy areas in between boast beautiful seasonal wildflowers. A spring-fed creek meanders through the limestone in the south wooded portion of the ranch, seasonal in nature. Year-round Turtle Creek runs along the north boundary with a low-water crossing and 588 feet of frontage to the center of the creek. It feeds into the Guadalupe River less than a quarter-mile down-stream.
A water well serves the homestead and barns. It was drilled in 1990, 362' deep, 65 GPM [according to the Well Report].
Built in 1994, the 1,968 square foot two-story home has 3 bedrooms [Master Suite is on main level], 2.5 bathrooms, and an office. It features large front and back porches, vaulted ceilings, fireplace, terracotta tile floors, and a large master walk-in shower. The yard is landscaped with many native plants and flowerbeds, and a high-fenced garden is located in the back.
The 800 sq. ft. fully enclosed storage barn has electricity, water, HVAC, two garage doors, and contains the water well equipment in a separate room, full bath for temporary living quarters. The 500 square foot equipment shed is large enough for a tractor or other implements. Several sets of sturdy, sucker rod style goat pens with cross fences separate the property, allowing livestock to rotate between several pastures. Most of the pens include steel building feeding areas, metal roof shaded areas, and water troughs supplied by water lines running from the well.
An abundance of Axis and Whitetail deer frequent the property, along with songbirds, turkey, dove, rabbits & hares, and occasional coyotes and bobcat. Fish are likely to be found in Turtle Creek.
Property has water rights from Turtle Creek for irrigation purposes - as allowed by TCEQ.
Elevations range from 1526' to 1600'.
The property currently has an agricultural valuation, keeping taxes manageable at $1,362 in 2020, including the homestead / age exemption. For the buyer interested in switching to a Wildlife Management valuation, this should be feasible through the local appraisal district [KCAD].
With a population of 25,000 +/- [50,000 +/- county], Kerrville will provide all the needs of a rural landowner, including HEB grocery, Walmart, Lowes / Home Depot and Tractor Supply just eight miles away.
Center Point ISD is four miles 'down the road'.
NOTE 1: The ranch to the west - same size, minimal improvements - 'might' be for sale. This will complement nicely and more square off the offerings. This will double the creek frontage and double the field & pasture land. $750,000 +/-
NOTE 2: The ranch to the south is also for sale being 92 acres with large home / barn.
NOTE 3: Any square footage figures listed above are not warranted by Realtor and have been provided by KCAD and other sources. Same with the stated year of home built.
