Summary: 7 Arrows Ranch is one of the most scenic ranches you will find anywhere. At 1,828.62 acres this "Legacy" size ranch sprawls across the landscape in western Comanche County, but what's even more impressive is the property possesses such diverse terrain and everchanging topography, that it even feels and drives much larger. It's also an extremely good recreational ranch with superb wildlife habitat supported by a strong variety of native browse and forbs, plentiful cover and edge, and has also benefited from owners who have been wildlife management minded in providing the right supplemental feed sources, water, and good harvest practices. Another great aspect of this wonderful property is that it is secluded and off the beaten path, and offers the ultimate in privacy. All you hear is nature; no highway noise or city lights. There are few ranches than can claim all the unique attributes this high-quality property has to offer and is one that's sure to excite and amaze. Location: Located approximately 12 miles northwest of Comanche, Texas, 2.5 hours southwest of Dallas, 2 hours southwest of Fort Worth, and 1.25 hours southeast of Abilene, the property is located near the Brown County line between the smaller towns of May, Sidney, and Blanket not too far northeast of Lake Brownwood. Physical Address: 1350 CR 175, Sidney, TX 76474. Access & Road Frontage: The main entrance is on County Road 175 with approximately 4000' of all-weather caliche road frontage. A high game fence along CR 175 gives the ranch more privacy and security with mature live oaks on either side of the property's entrance. There is an additional 3250' of County Road 177 frontage with two entrances located along this northwestern portion of the property. A fourth access point can be found at a 90 degree turn on County Road 175. History: Just consider for a moment that this land was wild and widely uninhabited by Anglos up until the late 1,800's as this was Comanche Indian territory, as the county is so thusly named. Comanches and Kiowa Indians frequented the area, and their presence is clearly evidenced here by the collection of arrowheads, spearpoints, and tools regularly found on the property still today. On "star mountain" there are some old carvings dating back to the early 1,900's on a scenic lookout point, and other carvings inside a rock capped shelter that may pre-date these. Often during those earlier days Texas Rangers would take post on similar look out points for days at a time, scanning the vast prairies looking for raiding parties or threatening activity. Some of the many carvings seen could be Ranger identification numbers or symbols, as have been found on points much like these in the surrounding areas. Terrain: The Hog Mountain Range, is a large expanse of mountainous country found in eastern Brown County and extends east into Comanche County in only one location, 7 Arrows Ranch. The leg of this mountain range that protrudes into the southwest portion of the property noticeably influences the landscape and has created 3 mountains which owners have dubbed "rattlesnake mountain", "long mountain", and "star mountain". Another lone mountain range is found on the north portion of the property and is covered in red oaks, live oaks, and shin oaks with very little cedar and a lot of flat ground on top for easy travel along the scenic ridgelines. These unique geologic features are marked by boulders, outcropping, overhangs, lookout points, and "Indian caves". In the valley between these two impressive mountain systems lies Patridge Creek, a seasonal creek that meanders through the ranch for over 2 miles. The riparian areas that buffer this desirable water feature are heavily wooded and offer deeper soils allowing for several wildlife food plots. There is 357 feet of elevation change found on the property with a high elevation of 1937' above sea level and a low elevation of 1580' Tree Cover & Vegetation: The fall and spring foliage colors on the ranch are breathtaking, as the property is blanketed with red oak and redbud. Mature live oaks are plentiful as well and there's a great mix of other trees including pecan, post oak, shin oak, elm, hackberry, cedar, mesquite, bumelia, blackhaw, persimmons, sumac, and cedar elm. Wildlife habitat is prime with 75% of the ranch being heavily to moderately wooded. In addition to several mentioned above, browse species also include elbowbush, skunkbush, greenbrier, catclaw mimosa, agarita and hog/sand plum. Wildlife & Hunting: Whitetail Deer, Rio Grande turkey, feral hogs, varmint, dove, and ducks provide many hunting opportunities. The ranch was previously in the Managed Lands Deer Program (MLDP)- Harvest Option. In conjunction with TPWD recommendations, management efforts recently produced a monster low fenced buck scoring over 200" B&C and had previously produced some other really nice trophies including a buck that scored over 170" and had a rare double main beam on one side. There is an equally impressive turkey population with several roosting locations along Patridge Creek. Blinds and feeders are found throughout the property with 5 protein feeders and 15+/- corn feeders. The buck: doe ratio is believed to be 1 buck: 3-4 does. Pastureland: 25% of the landscape is more open land productive for grazing cattle. These pastures include little bluestem, sideoats grama, and other beneficial native grasses. There are 4 pastures on the northern 1/2 of the ranch and 1 large pasture on the southern 1/2 of the ranch. Fencing is in excellent to fair condition and will turn cattle. Cultivation: There are six (6) wildlife food plots being actively farmed. The food plots are not fenced and the size of plots ranges from 1.5 to 11+/- acres when all are cultivated. Oats are typically planted in the fall to attract wildlife. Water: Patridge Creek is the primary water feature on the ranch and will run the majority of the year in wet seasons. There are also 2 deep stock tanks, 5 smaller stock tanks, 4 water wells, and areas that appear to offer lake site potential. One of the larger stock tanks is stocked with baitfish and catfish. An additional fairly large stock tank was constructed in recent years in an excellent drainage and created another reliable source of water for recreation, wildlife, and cattle. Home: A ~2,880 SF 5 bedroom/2 bath two-story ranch house was built in the 1960's and is located in a perfect setting. The home easily sleeps 12 people, has a two-car garage, metal roof (8+/- years old) and is all electric. There is a wood burning fireplace in the living room and the HVAC was recently serviced. The home is very functional and in good condition. It also has a spacious yard surrounded by a pipe fence and mature trees. Other Improvements: A metal ~1,800 SF 4-bay shop with rollup doors on a concrete slab is located just up the hill from the main house. Across from this building is a ~1,550 SF rustic barn/hangout area with a lot of character. Attached and behind this barn is a game cleaning station and walk-in cooler/ freezer. These improvements are not overdone and just right for post and/or pre-hunt get togethers. Road System: Roads provide superb access to all parts of the ranch. There is a main north road and south road with a network of interconnected pasture roads and trails that provide excellent travel throughout the property with 5 passable creek crossings. There are a couple places on the ranch where caliche can be utilized to repair and further improve roads when needed. Neighbors: There are several large neighbors surrounding the property. The neighbor to the south is believed to be approximately 2600+/- acres with another neighbor on the west side of the property being 1700+/- acres. 7 Arrows is an all low-fenced ranch with the exception of the County Road 175 frontage on the east entrance road. Easements: There are no pipeline easements, roadway easements, major transmission lines or any other detrimental easements impacting the ranch. Some wind development can be found in Comanche County with wind turbines being approximately 4 miles to the south and having a very minimal impact. Minerals: There is no O&G production on the ranch and the minerals are not leased at this time. Buyer will assume responsibility and expenses associated with a mineral ownership report if one is desired. Utilities: Electrical utility service is provided by Comanche County Electric Cooperative and Totelcom provides internet service to the area. Water to the improvements are provided by a private water well and the home is on a conventional septic system. Personal Property: Some furnishings could be included as part of a turn-key sale. Taxes: Property is Agriculturally Exempt and property taxes were approximately $8,500 for 2022.

Some of the many carvings seen could be Ranger identification numbers or symbols, as have been found on points much like these in the surrounding areas. Patridge Creek Ranch is the south pasture of the 1,828 acre 7 Arrows Ranch. Terrain: The Hog Mountain Range, is a large expanse of mountainous country found in eastern Brown County and it extends east into Comanche County in only one location, the Patridge Creek Ranch. The leg of this mountain range that protrudes into the southwest portion of the property noticeably influences the landscape and has created 3 mountains which have been dubbed "rattlesnake mountain", "long mountain", and "star mountain". These mountainous portions of the property offer huge views of the ranch and surrounding area from rock outcroppings and protruding ridgelines that encircle these formations. Dense stands of shin oak along with an abundance of red oak, and red bud account for a large part of the tree cover and vegetation that blanket these hills. A good trail system allows access up to the top of and travel around the entire ridge of "rattlesnake mountain". Another trail provides access up to a saddle lookout point between "long" and "star" mountain, and then with just a short hike in either direction you can reach the summit of each of these unique geologic features that are marked by boulders, outcropping, overhangs, and "Indian caves". Below these mountains in the valley to the north lies Patridge Creek, a seasonal creek that meanders from west to east through the center of the ranch. The riparian areas that buffer this desirable water feature are heavily wooded and offer deeper soils allowing for wildlife food plot establishment. There's approximately 350' of incredible elevation change found across the property with a high of 1,920' above sea level atop "rattlesnake mountain" and a low of 1,570' near where Patridge Creek exits the property. Water: Patridge Creek is the primary water feature and the property provides ownership along both sides of this treelined creek for ~2.25 miles as it carves its way through the center of the ranch. Seasonally, it will run significant amounts of water and in drier conditions continue to hold long pools. In addition to the creek there are 4 stock ponds providing reliable water sources for wildlife, livestock, and recreation. There are 3 water wells on the property. Two being electric submersible pump wells, one of which serves the house and barns, and the third being an old windmill water well. Wildlife & Hunting: Whitetail Deer, Rio Grande turkey, hogs, varmint, dove, and ducks provide many hunting opportunities. The ranch was previously in the Managed Lands Deer Program (MLDP) - Harvest Option. In conjunction with TPWD recommendations and owners management efforts the property recently produced a monster low fenced buck scoring over 200" B&C and had previously produced some other really nice trophies including a buck that scored over 170" and had a rare double main beam on one side. There's an equally impressive turkey population that calls the ranch home. Any blinds and feeders located on the property will remain and convey as part of a sale. The buck: doe ratio is believed to be 1 buck: 3-4 does. Wildlife Food Plots: There are eight (8) wildlife food plots being actively farmed with 4 in various locations south of the creek and 4 north of the creek. One of which is near and visible from the ranch home. The food plots are not fenced and range in size from 0.25 up to 11+/- acres in size when all farmed. Oats are typically planted in the fall to attract wildlife. Tree Cover & Vegetation: Red oaks are incredibly abundant and mature live oaks are plentiful as well. There is a great mix of other trees including pecan, post oak, shin oak, elm, hackberry, cedar, mesquite, bumelia, redbud, blackhaw, persimmons, sumac, and cedar elm. Wildlife habitat is prime with approximately 70% of the ranch being heavily to moderately wooded. Browse species include elbowbush, skunkbush, greenbrier, catclaw mimosa, agarita and hog/sand plum. Ranch Home & Additional Structural Improvements: A ~2,880 SF two-story 5 bedroom/2 bath ranch house was built in the 1960's and is located in a perfect setting. The home easily sleeps 12 people, has a two-car garage, metal roof (7-8+/- years old) and is all electric. There is a wood burning fireplace in the living room and the HVAC was recently serviced. The home is very functional and in good condition. It also has a spacious yard surrounded by a pipe fence and mature trees. A metal ~1,800 SF 4-bay shop with rollup doors on a concrete slab is located just up the hill from the main house, and is believed to have been constructed in 2010. Across from this building is a ~1,550 SF rustic barn/hangout area with a lot of character and includes a woodburning stove near the center of the main area for all to gather around and share stories of their morning or evening hunts. Attached just behind this barn is a covered and lighted game cleaning station fully equipped with tie-down anchors, an over-head chain hoist and walk-in cooler/freezer, all on concrete. For some summer time fun, there's a large 30' diameter concrete water tank located in the heart of the ranch, that with some creativity and maybe a covered deck added, could make a really cool country swimming hole and hangout. (Note: Square footages and constructions dates were obtained from Comanche CAD and may be approximate.) Roads & Fencing: There are two entrances off of Comanche County Road 175 with the main and most northerly entrance being near the intersection of CR 175 and CR 165 with mature live oaks on either side of the gated entry.

$3,100,000  •  383.8 acres
Summary: The North Mountain Ranch is exactly what the name suggests. This 383.80+/- acres encompasses almost all of a single mountain system and is really the last significant topographical feature of its kind in this part of Comanche County as the land significantly flattens out from here moving north and east toward Eastland County. Which means what? Monster views to the north and east for miles upon miles. Big views are what this property is all about as this mountain system offers them in all directions from different and numerous unique vantage points. If you ever wanted a mountain top home, then this is the place as you can take your pick of the many potential sites the property has to offer. The wildlife habitat is second to none, and attracts and holds an abundance of game. The peace and tranquility offered by the remote country gem is immeasurable, and if you've been searching for a recreational/hunting getaway of your very own, or spot to build your new full-time residence, North Mountain is a must see. Location: Located in northwestern Comanche County on Comanche County Road No. 177, the North Mountain Ranch is located 6.75 miles east of the town of May, Texas, 7.25 miles east of the town of Sidney, Texas, and 16.75 miles northwest of Comanche, Texas, approximately 2.5 hours southwest of Dallas, 2 hours southwest of Fort Worth, and 1 hour southeast of Abilene. The property is centrally located between and approximately 30 minutes from Lake Proctor and Lake Brownwood. Physical Address: CR 177, Sidney, TX 76474. History: Just consider for a moment that this land was wild and widely uninhabited by Anglos up until the late 1,800's as this was Comanche Indian territory, as the county is so thusly named. North Mountain is the northerly most and middle pasture of the 1,828 acre 7 Arrows Ranch. Comanche and Kiowa Indians frequented the area, and their presence is clearly evidenced by the collection of arrowheads, spearpoints, and tools found on the property over the years. Terrain: Believed to have possessed the highest elevation point on the original ranch at ~1,929' above see the level, North Mountain offers approximately 230' of total elevation change, from big mountain tops and ridges, to canyon bottoms and creek draws. The mountain system found here can be seen and is easily recognizable as you approach the property from May, Sidney, and/or Comanche, and really stands out as one of the last big impressive landmarks in this part of the county as you continue north or east. There are rock points, ridges, outcroppings, overhangs, and just about every unique geologic feature you would expect to find. In addition, the mountain top is covered with a wonderful mixture of desirable trees and vegetation that includes shin oak, live oak, red oak, post oak, elm, redbud, and a variety of other species. To the south of the ranch lies the Patridge Creek valley and the southern portion of this mountain system forms a horseshoe shape that funnels the watershed to a large draw that feeds south toward Patridge Creek. However, this draw collects and gathers a great deal of runoff and is dammed up near the center of the southern thirds of the ranch, where it provides a deep pond and reliable source of water for wildlife, livestock, and recreation. Water: As previously mentioned the property has one good stock pond that holds water year- round. This is the catfish pond, and a great place to spend some time with the kids and/or grandkids catching channel cat one right after the other. There are no water wells on the property at this time, but it is believed that one could be successfully drilled if desired, as there are several working water wells on nearby adjacent properties. Wildlife & Hunting: Whitetail Deer, Rio Grande turkey, hogs, varmint, dove, and ducks provide many hunting opportunities. The ranch was previously in the Managed Lands Deer Program (MLDP) - Harvest Option. In conjunction with TPWD recommendations and owners management efforts, the property recently produced a monster low fenced buck scoring over 200" B&C and had previously produced some other really nice trophies including a buck that scored over 170" and had a rare double main beam on one side. There's an equally impressive turkey population that calls the ranch home. Any blinds and feeders located on the property will remain and convey as part of a sale. The buck: doe ratio is believed to be 1 buck: 3-4 does. Wildlife Habitat: The wildlife habitat is prime with 70% of the ranch being heavily to moderately wooded and includes browse species such as shin oak, elbowbush, skunkbush, bumelia, sumac, redbud, cedar elm, greenbrier, catclaw mimosa, agarita and hog plum. Roads & Fencing: A new entrance and entrance road/trail are being constructed near the northwest corner of the property, and with the mountain just west of you as you enter into the ranch, this is an extremely satisfying feeling to know you own the land that towers over you to your left, and is a unique and impressive drive as you wind your way south and then turn west into the heart of the ranch. The roads include a mixture of improved all-weather gravel roads and unimproved pasture roads and trails. On top of the mountain awaits approximately 3.2 miles of trails that will take you completely around the top outer ridge and also interconnects with a few cross trails in the interior and a couple stem trails that run out to the end of several of the points. You could spend hours just on these upper trails and never see the same place twice. Additional trails provide good travel through the south portion of the ranch and also cross the dam of the stock pond. The fences are a mix of new and old fencing and appear to turn livestock. Easements: There are no known pipeline easements, roadway easements, or large electric transmission line easements encumbering the ranch. Comanche County does have some wind development with wind turbines visible from and located approximately 4-5 miles south of the ranch, but with very minimal impact. Minerals: There is no O&G production on the ranch and the minerals are not leased at this time. Buyer will assume responsibility and expenses associated with a mineral ownership report if one is desired. Utilities: Electrical utility service is provided to the area by Comanche County Electric Cooperative.

It's a gem of a property and one of those that drives much larger than the acreage suggests due to the everchanging topography and diverse terrain. Location: Located in northwestern Comanche County at an ell corner of Comanche County Road No. 175, the Stag Creek Ranch is located 5 miles west of the town of Sidney, Texas, 9 miles east of the town of May, Texas, and 14.5 miles northwest of Comanche, Texas, approximately 2.5 hours southwest of Dallas, 2 hours southwest of Fort Worth, and 1 hour southeast of Abilene. The property is centrally located between and approximately 30 minutes from Lake Proctor and Lake Brownwood. Physical Address: CR 175, Sidney, TX 76474. History: Just consider for a moment that this land was wild and widely uninhabited by Anglos up until the late 1,800's as this was Comanche Indian territory, as the county is so thusly named. Stag Creek is the northeast pasture of the 1,828 acre 7 Arrows Ranch. Comanche and Kiowa Indians frequented the area, and their presence is clearly evidenced by the collection of arrowheads, spearpoints, and tools found on the property over the years. Terrain: There's approximately 200' of elevation change across the ranch with higher elevations on the north and west sides along with a really unique knob hill that is centrally located in the northern half of the property. From this hill you have a 360 degrees view of the ranch and surrounding area. Near the west side of the ranch you'll find a unique rock outcropping/overhang at the head of a canyon that is sure to be a favorite stop on property tours. Tree cover consists of a mix of live oak, post oak, red oak, shin oak, elm, hackberry, redbud, mesquite, and cedar. Water: The headwaters of Stag Creek, a seasonal creek, begin in the hills on the ranch as it collects and continues east through the property. Another wet weather branch begins further back up in the hills to the northwest and gathers as it meanders through the landscape as well, before exiting the ranch near the northeast corner. The property also has 2 small stock ponds that provide water for wildlife and livestock. There are no water wells on the property at this time, but underground water in the area is good and it is believed that a well could be successfully drilled if desired, as there are several working water wells nearby on adjacent properties. Wildlife & Hunting: Whitetail Deer, Rio Grande turkey, hogs, varmint, dove, and ducks provide many hunting opportunities. The ranch was previously in the Managed Lands Deer Program (MLDP) - Harvest Option. In conjunction with TPWD recommendations and owners management efforts, the property recently produced a monster low fenced buck scoring over 200" B&C and had previously produced some other really nice trophies including a buck that scored over 170" and had a rare double main beam on one side. There's an equally impressive turkey population that calls the ranch home. Any blinds and feeders located on the property will remain and convey as part of a sale. The buck: doe ratio is believed to be 1 buck: 3-4 does. Wildlife Habitat & Food Plots: Approximately 75% of the ranch is heavily to moderately wooded and provides outstanding habitat for the abundance of wildlife that call the ranch home. cover and includes browse species such as shin oak, elbowbush, skunkbush, bumelia, sumac, redbud, cedar elm, greenbrier, catclaw mimosa, agarita and hog plum. There is are two old wildlife food plots that could easily be farmed again and put into oats to help attract and hold game during the fall/winter months that each measure a 1.75+/- acres in size, as well as other areas where new food plots could be established. Shooting Range: A range is located near the northeast part of the ranch for target practice and/or sighting in that new rifle. It's also a great setup for handgun/pistol practice. Old Ranch Truck/ Unique Showpiece: Next to the range sits what is believed to be a late 1950's model Dodge 200 step-side ranch truck. Marked on both doors of the pickup you can still clearly make out -T- Ranch (aka Bar T Bar Ranch). It would be neat to know more of the truck's history and of how it came to be here on this ranch, but is such a cool find. Especially with the front windshield and side windows still intact. It's clear that the old truck has long since set out in the elements and nature taken its course, but it has that rust and patina you just can't recreate. It would certainly make a unique showpiece to move near the ranch entrance where it can be regularly seen and enjoyed as owners and guests pass by, or maybe located near your new country home as part of the landscaping as a rare piece of "yard art". For the right person, it might even make for a fun restoration project. Roads & Fencing: A gated entrance provides access into the ranch at an ell corner of CR 175 at the northeast corner of the property, providing easy entry. A mix of improved all weather gravel roads and unimproved pasture roads and trails provide good travel in and around the property. The fences are a mix of new and old fencing and appear to turn livestock. Easements: There are no known pipeline easements, roadway easements, or large electric transmission line easements encumbering the ranch. Comanche County does have some wind development with wind turbines visible from and located approximately 4-5 miles south of the ranch, but with very minimal impact.

Buyer will assume responsibility and expenses associated with a mineral ownership report if one is desired. Utilities: Electrical utility service in the area is provided by Comanche County Electric Cooperative with lines in place just south of the property. The neighboring owner will agree to provide an easement for power to be run from the nearest line to this property.

Summary: Lone Point has it all with a collection of diverse and highly sought-after land features that are sure to grab your attention and spark your imagination. Great topography, an excellent mixture of heavily wooded acreage and open tillable portions, outstanding hunting, potential lake site, a very remote and private feel, and power & water already in place. Whether it's for a hunting/weekend getaway or you plan to lay stake and call this home, you'll certainly appreciate the peacefulness of the country, jaw dropping sunrises and sunsets, and breathtaking star lit night skies found here. Location: Located in northwestern Comanche County just east of the Brown County line on Comanche County Road No. 177, the Lone Point Ranch is located 6.5 miles east of the town of May, Texas, 7.5 miles west of the town of Sidney, Texas, and 17 miles northwest of Comanche, Texas, approximately 2.5 hours southwest of Dallas, 2 hours southwest of Fort Worth, and 1 hour southeast of Abilene. The property is centrally located between and approximately 30 minutes from Lake Proctor and Lake Brownwood. Physical Address: CR 177, Sidney, TX 76474. History: Just consider for a moment that this land was wild and widely uninhabited by Anglos up until the late 1,800's as this was Comanche Indian territory, as the county is so thusly named. Lone Point is the northwest pasture of the 1,828 acre 7 Arrows Ranch. Comanche and Kiowa Indians frequented the area, and their presence is clearly evidenced by the collection of arrowheads, spearpoints, and tools found on the property over the years. Terrain: A lone point protrudes into the southwest corner of the ranch, being the most easterly point and end of a small mountain range that begins in Brown County and stretches east. The highest point on the ranch is found here at ~1,910' above sea level providing incredible views all around. The point itself is a noticeable land mark that can be seen for miles and is very distinguishable as it is marked near the end by a single red oak tree. From this point the land severely slopes downward as it descends the mountain and then levels off to a much gentler slope as you continue through the majority of the ranch moving north. The watershed created by Lone Point and another mountain system located east of the property, begin to collect along a draw that runs the center of the ranch. A hydrology study would need to be conducted to verify, but it appears the drainage through here is enough to support a small lake or large pond somewhere in the 4-5 surface acre range. The tree cover is diverse with dense stands of shin oak on the higher elevated portions, and an abundance of red oak, post oak, elm, pecan, hackberry, cedar, mesquite, bumelia, redbud, blackhaw, persimmons, sumac, cedar elm, and beautiful scattered live oak motts throughout the remainder. Overall, the ranch has ~260' of elevation change as the lowest point on the property is found along CR 177 where the seasonal draw exits the ranch at near ~1,650' above sea level. Water: The property has one small reliable stock pond near the entrance of the ranch that is frequented by wildlife and livestock. The water well is also located near the entrance and per the drilling log, was believed to have been drilled in 1998, is 180' deep, and at the time installed, produced a volume of 10 gpm. Contact agent for a copy of the drilling report/log. It is believed that additional water wells could be successfully drilled if desired. As previously mentioned, there appears to be a large enough watershed that collects through the main draw, that would support a small lake or additional pond. Wildlife & Hunting: Whitetail Deer, Rio Grande turkey, hogs, varmint, dove, and ducks provide many hunting opportunities. The ranch was previously in the Managed Lands Deer Program (MLDP) - Harvest Option. In conjunction with TPWD recommendations and owners management efforts, the property recently produced a monster low fenced buck scoring over 200" B&C and had previously produced some other really nice trophies including a buck that scored over 170" and had a rare double main beam on one side. There's an equally impressive turkey population that calls the ranch home. Any blinds and feeders located on the property will remain and convey as part of a sale. The buck: doe ratio is believed to be 1 buck: 3-4 does. Wildlife Habitat & Food Plots: The wildlife habitat is prime with 65% of the ranch being heavily to moderately wooded and includes browse species such as shin oak, elbowbush, skunkbush, bumelia, sumac, redbud, cedar elm, greenbrier, catclaw mimosa, agarita and hog plum. There is a 1.5+/- acre wildlife food plot that is actively farmed and oats annually planted to attract wildlife in the fall. Roads & Fencing: A double gated entrance provides access into the ranch and is centrally located along the north end of the property where it fronts Comanche County Road No. 177 for approximately 2,500'. A semi-improved all weather arterial gravel road enters and winds its way south along the more easterly portion of the ranch before circling back into itself via a trail near the southeast property corner. Off of this main road you will find multiple pasture roads and trails that run west into the heart of the property and one that crosses through to the west boundary where it turns south and climbs Lone Point. This trail is not for the faint of heart as it ascends the mountain, but well worth the climb once you reach the top and continue out to the end of the point. What a view!! There's also a connecting trail that follows along and allows you to drive most of the west and north fence lines. The fences are a mix of new and old fencing and appear to turn livestock. Easements: There are no known pipeline easements, roadway easements, or large electric transmission line easements encumbering the ranch. Comanche County does have some wind development with wind turbines visible from and located approximately 4-5 miles south of the ranch, but with very minimal impact. Minerals: There is no O&G production on the ranch and the minerals are not leased at this time. Buyer will assume responsibility and expenses associated with a mineral ownership report if one is desired. Utilities: Electrical utility service is provided by Comanche County Electric Cooperative with a line in place on the ranch and an active meter set near the water well. Property Taxes: The property is ag-exempt and property taxes are estimated to have been $522.23 for 2021.
