Description
Under "October Sky" sunsets, The El Sendero Ranch is part of the much-coveted Texas Northern Hill Country area located just northwest of Lampasas, only 85 miles from Austin...which can be seller-financed! Where Crosstimbers meets the Edwards Plateau, El Sendero actually boasts characteristics of 5 different Eco-Regions with an incredibly diverse variety of vegetation, rocky outcroppings throughout the plateau, and silty clay below in the front SE "valley" portion. Situated among panoramic vistas, El Sendero is 120 acres of perfectly blended tallgrass prairie meadows surrounded by Post Oak groves, scattered Live Oaks, Spanish Oak, Elm, Mountain Laurel, Mountain Cedar, and other various evergreen hardwoods offering plenty of wildlife coverage. Given the coverage, the quiet Northern Hill Country seclusion, the 1/2-acre tank, and location, an amazing amount of Whitetail trek through setting up a phenomenal hunting retreat. Entering the ranch along the expansive trail system, you'll traverse up subtle limestone benches approaching an elevated mesa reaching up to 1580 ft., which covers almost half of the ranch. Atop the tree-covered mesa you are provided with spectacular Hill Country views for miles. Down below the mesa and split by Blue Dog Creek, lies the mostly flat, tall grassed meadowland that's covered in a variety of majestic Oaks, bluebonnets, paintbrush & pond (which can grow up to 3/4-acre during wet years). Additional game on the property includes the expected wild hogs, coyote, dove, varieties of duck, quail, and roaming wild turkeys. An Ag exemption is currently in place for the new owner(s) per a cattle lease that can be renewed if wanted. Currently accessed by easement on a neighboring unoccupied property, with possible options available for a new buyer's privately owned access. Whether you take advantage of the many homesite options as a homestead, leave it as a recreational sanctuary, or both, this quintessential Texas Ranch is a must-see property!
