Property Description
DESCRIPTION: Oak Ridge Homestead is 15.2± acres, offering a blend of country living, some light ranch use, and recreational appeal. This smaller, yet manageable ranchette, includes all existing improvements from the original 88-acre ranch. The property is mostly open pastureland with a few large, mature trees and a scenic pond, ideal for livestock or peaceful weekend retreats. With approximately 780 feet of frontage on CR 442, the homestead offers convenient access and excellent visibility, while remaining private and peaceful. Additional acreage is available to the east, if preferred. TERRAIN: The terrain on this tract is mostly level with gentle slopes, ranging in elevation from approximately 390 to 400 feet. The land is primarily open with well-maintained pastures, scattered mature trees for shade, and minimal brush-making it highly usable. A nice pond is located on the back of the property, perfect for livestock watering or personal enjoyment. IMPROVEMENTS: The homestead includes a charming, well-kept 3-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse with a metal roof, cozy fireplace, full kitchen, and a welcoming front porch. A detached garage adds extra storage or could be converted into additional living space. The entire homesite is fenced, and the property also includes cross-fencing, cattle pens, and a hay barn-ideal for light ranching or hobby farming. WATER: Oak Ridge Homestead is served by Gonzales County community water and also includes a private well. A picturesque pond is located within the tract, providing a steady water source for livestock and potential for recreational use such as fishing or relaxing by the water's edge. WILDLIFE: The open pastures and nearby wooded areas make this property attractive to native wildlife, including deer, turkey, and dove. The pond also supports fish and migratory birds. Whether for nature watching or seasonal hunting, the land offers enjoyable outdoor opportunities. MINERALS: Mineral rights are negotiable.
