THE HOME:
An iron double-gate greets you as you enter the property off of the paved CR 1700. The entrance road winds a half mile to the back of the property, where, hidden in a grove of tall trees, sits a 2155 sq ft brick home, with rock accents and architectural style roof. The house was built in 2004 and is surrounded by a manicured fescue lawn irrigated by a sprinker system, lush flower gardens, and, just beyond the lawn, a forest of trees, with native live oak, hackberry, chinaberry and scrub oak hammacks, and bodarks. A long back porch and wooden deck allow plenty of room for relaxing outside to enjoy the landscape, whether watching different species of birds or deer cross the back pasture.
Inside, the house has an open floor plan, with living spaces that flow one into another. The living room has a stone fireplace and recessed ceiling. Tall windows help bring in the outdoors to the interior. The kitchen is just off of the living room and has custom cabinets and a sitting bar. For dining, there is a breakfast nook and formal dining room. Three spacious bedrooms and two bathrooms expand the living areas. The master suite has a recessed ceiling and its own door going to the back porch. The attached master bathroom has two vanity areas, each with its own sink, plus a walk-in closet, jacuzzi tub, and walk-in shower. The other two bedrooms and the second bathroom are on the opposite side of the house. This bathroom has a full bath and shower, and is located off of the hall so it is easy for guests to access.
Overall, the house can be best described as a contemporary home with southwest flare, with arched doorways, rounded corners, high ceilings, and earth tones throughout. The home was definitely built with an eye towards detail. It also has an attached two car garage. The home is supplied by a water well, but is also connected to the local community water system, if a new owner preferred to use it instead.
CATTLE RANCHING:
This property is set up for running livestock. It has approximately 75 acres of coastal bermuda grass and another 50 acres of love grass. A Zimmatic pivot, which waters 104 of these acres (half in coastal, half in love grass), was added by the present owner a couple of years ago. Three water wells were installed to supply the pivot, and they produce a combined 500 gallons/minute of water pressure to it. While the current owner uses the irrigated pasture to increase his stocking rate, it could also be used to grow hay, such as coastal or alfalfa, or even row crops like cotton and wheat. The ranch can carry 125 yearlings, or with supplemental hay, can sustaining 60 pairs annually.
A 40' x 40' metal barn is located at the headquarters, perfect for storing equipment. A set of working pens near the road provides a place to sort cattle. These pens have been updated with new panels, Priefert sweep, and Powder River squeeze chute. A trap leads from the pasture to the pens; three horse stalls are attached as well. A stock tank on a well tap is in place for watering the animals.
HUNTING and RECREATION:
The wooded areas of the ranch provide lots of hunting opportunities for whitetail deer and turkey. The current owner regularly sees wildlife behind their house, and their beddings can easily be seen in the tall grasses. A water well in the native pasture provides a good location to stage game, with feeders, etc. Bobwhite quail, bobcats, and other varmits can be found here too.
Other recreational activities are in this immediate area of the county. For the fisherman, Lake Hall is a free public lake just 1.5 miles north of the ranch, stocked with largemouth bass, channel catfish, and sunfish. This lake is 36 acres in size and allows boats too.
Also just down the road is the Hollis Country Club, which has a nine hole golf course. Within an hour is the Quartz Mountain State Park, which has a 6000+ acre lake, eighteen hole golf course, and large granite mountains for hiking and climbing.
