Tbd CR 3125 Road, Valley Mills, TX 76689

Beautiful turn-key Bosque County ranch ready for you and your family.  This 188.5 acre ranch is located less than a mile west of Highway 6 at the Neils Creek Crossing.  This location is super convenient just 4.5 miles NW of Valley Mills, TX.  The existing brick home is 2,442sf and was built in 1980.  The home is perfectly adequate for immediate use or ready for you to make it your own.  This property has served as a weekend getaway for the owners since 2010.  The property is very well suited for Whitetail Deer and hog hunting, fishing, hiking, or any number of outdoor activities.  Located across CR 3125 is a small 14-acre outparcel that also conveys with the ranch.  This small tract is unique in that it rises to an elevation of 820' and commands an awesome view of the ranch main body.  The elevation change from the top of the 14-acre outparcel to Shoal Creek, which serves as the southern boundary is approximately 200' (per Land ID software, see attachment).   This 14-acre outparcel could be the location of a new ranch house while using the existing home as guest quarters, bunkhouse, or short term rental.  The hunting on this property has proven to be very good with several nice Whitetails harvested.  There are 5 stock tanks on the property.  The water photos displayed in this listing were taken in July 2023 which was a very dry period in this region, yet there was water.  Perhaps it would be feasible to merge the four tanks into one larger lake.  Remaining structures include a good metal 3-bay garage/shop, water well, antique barn with pens, kids treehouse, open deck, firepit, and fenced lawn.  Three of five parcels are in Agricultural Exemption which do not include the house (1 acre) and the 14-acre outparcel.  What I find compelling about the property is the terrain surrounding the ranch.  Shoal Creek is the southern boundary (north bank) and hills rise up in all directions which gives one the feel of a much larger property.    Beautiful Pecan and Live Oak trees dot the landscape with heavier brush down toward Shoal Creek.  The house compound is approximately 3-acres and is very well suited for large family gatherings.  Large Texas Live Oak trees surround the house in a well manicured native lawn.  This ranch is a great option if you are looking for a land investment in Central Texas with tremendous recreational value.  Bosque County has several nice communities including Clifton, Valley Mills, and Meridian.  Lake Whitney is a short drive (20 min) and the commute to either DFW or Austin is under 2 hours.  Travel time to Waco is approximately 25 minutes.  Thank you for your interest.  ALL INFORMATION IN THIS LISTING IS DEEMED RELIABLE BUT NOT GUARANTEED.
