Lago Vista Ranch  

1200 ACRES – LIVE OAK CO. 

SOLD

The 1,200+/- acre Lago Vista Ranch, located in southeastern Live Oak county just an hour from the beaches of Corpus Christi, is a rare jewel with unique optionality. Within its low fences, youll find every desirable facet of South Texas living Brush Country habitat with large mesquite, elm, and a few live oaks as well as native browse such as cenizo and guajillo, plentiful wildlife including whitetails, turkey, quail and dove. In addition, there is a 35 acre irrigated field as well as productive native pastures for grazing livestock. Situated 20 miles west of Mathis and with four different entrances, access to the ranch is easy. The main entrance is off Carmel Drive, which like all the other access points, is a paved, county-maintained road.

Lago Vista includes more than one and a half miles of private frontage on Lake Corpus Christi that encompasses high bluffs, stunning, unobstructed views of deep water, two private coves and several sandy beaches. A 50-acre, heavily wooded point juts into the lake, offering incredible homesites with unsurpassed privacy, enviable elevation and one-of-a-kind views. For more than 35 years, Lago Vista has operated as a family-run cow-calf operation and a recreational hunting ranch. In addition, the owners have built the foundation for valuable future development. In the late 1980s, they platted more than 60 lakeview and lakefront lots, ranging in size from half to one and a half acres each. While the owners did not market “Lakeshore”, the plans for the platted and restricted subdivision are grandfathered in, offering an undeveloped asset. Lago Vista has the necessary infrastructure as a working and recreational hunting ranch and maintains its agriculture tax valuation. (The 120-head herd of cattle and ranch equipment are available through a separate bill of sale.)

The ranch is cross fenced into 10 separate pastures, each with a water source to allow for well-managed, rotational grazing. Its minimal structural improvements include two hay barns measuring 200’x 40 and 50’x75′, a 40’x75′ equipment barn with a concrete floor, and a set of cattle working pens. In addition, there is a small block house currently occupied by the manager.

When it comes to water, Lago Vista boasts four domestic wells and one irrigation well supporting a 30-acre center pivot. Currently, the pivot system irrigates a

35-acre coastal Bermuda patch that provides hay for the ranch or potentially for sale. There are two stock ponds that not only deliver water for

wildlife and livestock but offer exceptional dove hunting during the fall season.

Whether you’re seeking a private all-around ranch, an un-tapped opportunity, or both, Lago Vista Ranch will prove to be a valuable addition to your asset portfolio.

Double S Ranch 

819 ACRES – BROOKS CO. 

SOLD

The Double S Ranch is located 11 miles southwest of Falfurrias and is an ideal turn-key ranch that offers a magnitude of hunting opportunities.  The well-balanced natural habitat and cover throughout the ranch is ideal for whitetail deer, bobwhite quail, dove, turkey and hogs.  The current owners have utilized the ranch as a family retreat and have never leased the hunting rights in their 20+ year ownership of the property.   The ranch is located in the Coastal Sandsheet region of South Texas known for its unique deep sand and Live Oak motts. Terrain on the ranch is hilly with more topography than one would expect for the region ranging from 215 to 265’ MSL and a hilltop offering distant views over neighboring ranches.

Improvements include a 2 bed/2 bath main home, a 2 bed/1 bath guest cabin, a 30 x 40 enclosed metal building, a game cleaning station and covered equipment parking areas.  Located between the main home and the guest cabin is a spacious outdoor entertainment area with a firepit perfect for gathering with friends or relaxing after an evening hunt. The main home’s floorplan features an open kitchen/living area, a large walk-in pantry and mudroom with a washer and dryer. The master bedroom is oversized with a walk-in closet.  Finish out includes beautiful stained wood ceilings, granite counter tops, recessed lighting and Saltillo tile throughout.

The guest cabin is a 2 bed/2bath floorplan with an open kitchen/living room area. Featured in this cabin is a large indoor fire-bricked parrilla grill. The cabin also has Saltillo tile, attached covered car parking area and a workshop/storage area.

Water service on the ranch is more than adequate with 2 submersible pump water wells. The main well is located behind the main house and services the headquarters area. The second well is located on the southwest quadrant of the ranch and supplements a tank and an older set of cattle pens. The ranch is completely low fenced with large neighbors to the north, south and west. Most exterior fences are in good condition. There are over 10 miles of interior ranch roads making the property feel much larger than it is.

The owners have a long history of managing the native game on the ranch and have blind and feed stations located throughout the property.  Predominant tree species are Live Oak and Mesquite. Approximately 200 acres of the ranch is more open due to fires that impacted the region 7-10 years ago. In this area the native grasses are waist high and re-growth brush species have flourished adding diversification to the otherwise heavier brush balance of the property.  End of road privacy in the unique coastal sandsheet live oak region with a myriad of game make this turn-key offering appealing.

Seller to provide owners title policy and survey. No leases, production or oilfield traffic.
