This long-held family ranch lies in far southern Mills County, a few miles north of Lometa, on a caliche county road about two miles off of pavement. Goldthwaite, the county seat, is about 12 miles north, while Lampasas, which offers supplies, services and a hospital, is about 20 miles south. Austin, the State Capital, is 80 miles SE. This area consists of medium to large working/recreational ranches, with scattered acreage tract subdivisions. A wind farm is clearly visible and adjoining to the north and west. The ranch features a pleasing mixture of rough and smooth ground, including a layer of cliffs that are loaded with fossils, along with nearly level clay loam fields that have been cultivated in the past. Overall, the ranch is tilted to the SE, looking away from the turbines to distant views of rounded mesas. Much of the ranch is covered in a mix of oak/cedar, while some areas...
This long-held family ranch lies in far southern Mills County, a few miles north of Lometa, on a caliche county road about two miles off of pavement. Goldthwaite, the county seat, is about 12 miles north, while Lampasas, which offers supplies, services and a hospital, is about 20 miles south. Austin, the State Capital, is 80 miles SE. This area consists of medium to large working/recreational ranches, with scattered acreage tract subdivisions. A wind farm is clearly visible and adjoining to the north and west. The ranch features a pleasing mixture of rough and smooth ground, including a layer of cliffs that are loaded with fossils, along with nearly level clay loam fields that have been cultivated in the past. Overall, the ranch is tilted to the SE, looking away from the turbines to distant views of rounded mesas. Much of the ranch is covered in a mix of oak/cedar, while some areas are predominantly cedar, and the bottoms show many walnuts, heritage oaks, elm and pecans. Not surprisingly, abundant wildlife is found in this area, including axis, whitetail, turkey, hogs and varmints, and large bodied deer are observed on most site visits. The headwaters of famed Simms Creek are located on this ranch, and the actual headwater spring seeps from the base of an oak and never stops flowing as it exits the property, creating an excellent site for a large lake to supplement the three stock tanks located on the ranch. This offering features a solid mix of high value, recreational potential, sleeper location and variety. If this speaks to you, we welcome your inquiries, and encourage a site tour!
