Beeville, TX 78102(Bee County)

General: The Aransas River Ranch is by far the finest combination hunting, cattle, and recreational water ranch we have ever had in the Beeville area. The ranch is gently rolling with mostly sandy loam soils and covered with hundreds of giant live oaks some of which have been documented by the forest service to be over 900 years old! The ranch changes around every corner and has a great diversity of wildlife habitat and big virgin brush and trees. Outstanding water enhancements include miles of the Aransas River, and Spring Creek passes through the middle of the property. Approximately 25% of this ranch is currently maintained in improved pastures for livestock and the balance of the ranch has been preserved as a wildlife sanctuary. The ranch has wonderful improvements including several homes, horse facilities, and equipment barn. The property is offered as a turnkey sale with equipment, blinds, feeders, and house furnishings.

Water: This property is loaded with water features. The Aransas River borders the ranch for approximately 3 miles. The river is "user friendly", easy to access, and offers outstanding fishing for bass and Catfish. Spring Creek also passes through the middle of the ranch for several miles and has park like appearance with majestic live oaks. Well water is also very abundant with 8 active wells and several more that could be equipped if the new owner desired. The water is shallow and good quality. There are several stock tanks which can be supplemented by the water wells in dry times.

Improvements: The main attraction on the ranch is classic ranch home Nested under big live oaks. The main home is over 4,000 sf, has large porches, and swimming pool. Also near the main home you will find a basketball court, outdoor cooking facilities, and a first class skeet range. There are 4 more homes on the ranch including two Satterwhite log homes, a foreman's home, and a small antique home over 100 years old that has been very well maintained. Most of the improvements will be sold with appliances and furnishings.

The ranch is divided into 5 main pastures and all interior and exterior fencing is standard cattle fencing. The ranch also contains 13 miles of well maintained gravel roads and two miles of paved roads leading from the front entrance to the main headquarters.

The ranch is loaded with a big turkey habitat. Spring Creek and the Aransas River hold many large turkey roosts. The deer hunting on this ranch is also outstanding.
