Driving Directions:From Loving, head north on State Road 16 for approximately 6 miles to Stewart Ranch Road. Follow Stewart Ranch Road to the east for approximately 2.8 miles to the gate on the south side of the road.

Location: This beautiful ranch is located northeast of Loving Texas in the eastern edge of Young and the western edge of Jack Counties on the south side of Stewart Ranch Road.

Acreage: Oak Ridge consists of approximately 428± acres and is all in native and improved pastures. The north end of the ranch has a heavy cover of oaks, mostly Blackjack and Post Oak. As you head east and south, the ranch breaks off into rolling Mesquite pasture with some areas of thick Hackberry trees and Bull Mesquites. The cover and habitat are absolutely gorgeous with incredible views that do not disappoint. As mentioned before, the ranch lies in a transition zone, which creates beauty, high-quality cover, and bountiful groceries for livestock and wildlife.

Topography: The topography in this area and on the ranch is rolling, with approximately 70 feet of elevation change. A nice drainage runs from north to south, feeding into the two ponds near the center of the ranch.

Rainfall/Elevation: Jack County receives an average annual rainfall of approximately 30 inches according to the Texas Almanac online.

Cover: The northern third of the ranch is a heavy Blackjack and Post Oak thicket intermixed with large Bull Mesquites and many different types of browse plants. As the topography breaks off to the south and east, the ranch opens up into a healthy mix of Hackberry and Mesquite pasture. Hackberry trees are a favorite because deer absolutely love them and they are a high-value browse plant. The satellite imagery may be a little misleading, as it was for me, because the south end looks very open, but the cover is just about perfect.

Fences: The fences are barbed wire and are in fair to excellent condition.

Utilities: Electricity is available and currently connected to the cabin near the ranch’s center.

Water: The Cross Timbers 428 has an abundance of water with three beautiful, clear-water earth tanks, as well as a water well connected to the cabin. The ponds and tanks are perfect for fishing or simply relaxing and enjoying the view.

Hunting: Hunting in Jack and Young counties is known to be very good, producing plenty of high-quality game. The transition zones consistently provide excellent habitat for wildlife and a veritable buffet for animals to thrive. This area supports a healthy population of whitetail deer, Bobwhite quail, Rio Grande turkeys, and feral hogs. The southern end is a little more open and will offer plenty of opportunities for calling varmints. The ranch also has several surface tanks that are great for fishing during the warmer months.

Residence and Improvements: The ranch has a small 2/1 Ulrich log cabin nestled in the oak trees near the west side of the property. The cabin has all the creature comforts you would expect, and the porch is the perfect place to relax with a book or enjoy a cigar and a cocktail with friends.

Minerals: The seller does not own any minerals under this property.

Price: The property is priced at $2,642,900.
