Columbus River Ranch
Here is a property that is almost a wilderness, yet less than a one hour drive from Houston. It lies in an area that has traditionally produced some of the largest bucks taken in Colorado County. Nearby ranches have won several big buck contests. The ranch is well rested regarding deer hunting. The family has not leased deer hunting rights in over 40 years and the family themselves do not hunt.
This ranch is estimated 85% wooded. The upland areas are mostly sandy soils with the predominate tree being live oak. Old, moss draped giants. Other trees are post oak, water oak, hickory, black-jack oak and elm. Understory of yaupon, American beauty berry and huckleberry. Very good tree diversity. The bottom land is a series of perhaps six shallow dug old gravel pits. These were mined in the 1940's and 50's. Now the pits are covered up with huisache and grape vines. A jungle that harbor...
This ranch is estimated 85% wooded. The upland areas are mostly sandy soils with the predominate tree being live oak. Old, moss draped giants. Other trees are post oak, water oak, hickory, black-jack oak and elm. Understory of yaupon, American beauty berry and huckleberry. Very good tree diversity. The bottom land is a series of perhaps six shallow dug old gravel pits. These were mined in the 1940's and 50's. Now the pits are covered up with huisache and grape vines. A jungle that harbors trophy deer and hogs. The next level down towards the river is a forest of giant pecan, ash, cotton wood, sycamore and box alder. This ranch has a straight river boundary that does not slough off soil during periodic flooding. The river bank is stable.
There is an old mobile home on the property that adds no value but there is power and a water well to that site. One pond. The best attribute regarding access is a newly constructed oil road that enters the tract at about the mid point then travels through the center of the land almost to the river itself. All weather and very nice.
Access to this ranch is via a shared deeded easement.
The sellers believe they own 100% minerals and these can be negotiated.
