Property Summary: Hickory Creek Ranch is a very diverse property located only seconds from I-35 at the Oswalt Road exit. The west side of the property fronts Hwy 77 where an old ranch road leads to the main part of the ranch. There is also a gate along the south fence that can be accessed off of a county maintained road for an additional means of access. Hwy 77 is the only bordering road to the entire property making it accessible but secluded. There are ranch roads that lead through much of the property as well as a tunnel going right under the railroad tracks which makes the east side accessible without ever leaving the ranch.

There are 4 ponds on the property and it appears that 2 of the ponds could hold fish and the other 2 would be best suited for watering cattle and wildlife. The northern portion of the ranch has approximately 1.35+/- miles of Hickory Creek traversing the landscape flowing from west to east. Hickory Creek is a shallow creek that will dry up in the heat of the summer but its fertile banks are home to a thriving population of deer, turkeys and wild pigs. The creek has high banks and the creek bed is mostly coarse sand and gravel.

Once upon a time the current owners father pumped water our of Hickory Creek and irrigated the main field. The remnants of the old irrigation pipe still remain but they have not been in use for decades. There is a great mix of area that is open in comparison to cover giving the property tremendous eye appeal. An adjoining neighbor to the east portion has been leasing the property and kept it sewn into wheat for his cattle making a beautiful hillside lined with giant hardwoods and pecan trees.
