Edwards County Hunting Ranch
Nows your chance! The ranch youve been looking for is available for your enjoyment right now. Spreading over 2,550 acres of western hill country the Erwin ranch carries rich family history dating back to the 1930s. Hogs, turkey, dove and deer provide quality hunting along with diverse topography and peace and quiet that will make you feel as if you are 100 miles from civilization instead of only 15. Most ranches in the hill country have large improvements with high taxes and land prices are heavily inflated making your search difficult and exhausting. True, the improvements here are very basic and in need of updating, but with its location and highway frontage, the land is a rare find. Come and see this ranch for yourself while you still have the chance.

The Erwin Ranch is located about 12 miles West of the quaint little town of Rocksprings, Texas (basic necessities, a few local cafes and restaurants, groceries, fuel and ranch supplies). The ranch has nearly 3 miles of frontage on paved state Hwy 377 with about 480+/- acres on the North side of the highway and the remaining 2070+/- acres giving very easy access to the ranch. The ranch is approximately 60 miles to Junction, 70 miles to Uvalde and about 150 miles to San Antonio
Improvements include an older, but well-built rock house with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, a large living/dining area and galley style kitchen. Additionally, there are several out- buildings,barn with sorting pens and multiple pastures.
Perimeter fencing is in good shape for cattle or goats with the exception of one place where flood waters have pushed over a small section. All of the interior fencing appears to be in excellent shape. A portion of the South side perimeter fence is game proof due to a neighbor.
The hunting and recreational opportunities are endless on this ranch. For the avid hunter there is no shortage of White-tailed deer, Turkey, Axis deer and even the occasional Black Buck, Red Stag and Aoudad have been spotted. Not to mention a Corsican with a healthy double turn that was recently taken.
There is no surface water on the ranch however, the West Nueces River (which is typically dry, except for rainy times of the year) does bisect the ranch from North to South creating some good fertile valleys as well as several potential lake sites as it meanders through.
There are two fully functional wells on the ranch providing water to several areas. One provides water to the headquarters operated with an electric pump while the other provides water to the Eastern most portions of the ranch by windmill with electrical power located close by.
The beautiful landscape offers excellent views from many places across the ranch. Topography is as good, or better, than most in the area providing several deep draws and dozens of smaller valleys. Tree cover is excellent all across the ranch and the browse and grasses are
exceptional for this area as it has been lightly grazed over the years. Multiple hilltops offer great views from potential home sites should one desire to build elsewhere on the ranch or for future ranch division.
Asking price is $1,436 per acre or $3,663,000 for the entire 2550+/- acres. Seller will consider subdividing.
The entire ranch is under an agricultural evaluation for tax purposes, making property taxes approximately $3,372.99 for 2016.
