1,702 Acre Lavaca Prarie Ranch

Wed, 01 Sep 2010 09:33:58 -0500

Bird hunters dream on this extensive farmland for sale in northern Jackson County. Most of the property is in reclaimed rice fields with some native prarie. Excellent dove, quail and waterfowl property with potential to return land to farming or cattle ranch. Deer and hogs are also abundant on the property.
Dove and quail are numerous and new work is being done with the Texas Quail Initiative to greatly enhance the bird hunting. This is a great chance for a new owner to get in on the ground floor of the development of superior quail hunting so close to Houston at a great price. What makes this property unique for quail is that the top foot of soil is very sandy which creates excellent habitat for quail and limits the number of fire ants on the place.
One of the best areas along the Coastal Prarie for wetland development to create a world class waterfowl hunting property. The Lavaca River flyway brings down a tremendous number of ducks and geese in the fall and this general vicinity is being created into a premier duck hunting area.
All of the water canals and levees from previous rice farming activities still exist and could be easily restored into an excellent rice farm with the addition of an irrigation well. The ground water in the area is excellent with neighboring wells having capacities of approx. 2,500 gpm.
The roads are in good condition and there are two solar water wells on the property. There is one cattle pen and the perimeter fences are in good condition and the interior fences are in fair condition.
This land could be divided into two ranches.

115 Acres Peach Creek Ranch

Wed, 01 Sep 2010 09:33:58 -0500

Great small ranch in a great location. About a third of this ranch has higher rolling hills that are cleared and growing improved grasses and dotted with large live oaks and post oaks. Another third of the ranch is mostly dominated in thick brush, primarily mesquite. And the last third is hard wood bottoms that run along Peach Creek.

This area is dominated by pecans, water oaks, hackberries, and cedar elms. Some of the trees are enormous along this very pretty creek bottom. Plenty of game on the place including deer, hogs, turkey, duck and dove. Several of the low areas along the creek bottom could easily be enhanced to make a couple of terrific wetland units for duck hunting.

There are also two ponds on the property already. Two cross-fences cut the ranch into thirds and it is mostly rectangular in shape (see helpful files). There is municipal water lines running along the county road which border half of the ranch, there is also electricity crossing over the property. Neighbors appear to be large and clean with some real nice places in the area. Several areas would make great homesites, and with the road frontage it could easily be broken up further for investment purposes if desired.
