This property sits at the corner of CR 386 and CR 349 and features Little Bitter Creek running through the east side of the property, with two stock tanks, mesquite, native brush, and even some mature live oak trees! Seller has evidence of 100% of mineral right-ownership and will convey all owned minerals with an acceptable offer. Call for details.
Location: The property is located on the southeast corner of CR 386 and CR 349, approximately 6± miles southwest of Merkel, in Taylor County.
Acreage: 152.5± acres, with approximately 37± acres in native pasture and the balance in cultivation, currently planted in wheat.
Topography: Topography is level to sloping.
Rainfall/Elevation: The elevation is approximately 1,935± feet above sea level, and the average annual rainfall for Taylor County is 26 inches.
Cover: The cultivation portion of the property is currently planted in wheat, with a verbal lease to a local farmer, who will be allowed to harvest this year’s crop. The native pasture portion of the acreage has some large live oak trees, mesquite trees, native brush and grasses, and some elm and hackberry along the creek banks.
Fences: There is fencing on the east boundary of the property, with three sides being unfenced.
Utilities: Taylor County electric lines are on the property, and a Blair Water line is located on the northeast corner of the property along CR 386. Buyer and/or buyer’s agent would need to confirm directly with Blair Water as to the possibility of a meter being set.
Water: Little Bitter Creek, a wet weather creek, runs along the east boundary of the property. There are also two stock tanks on the property.
Hunting: The property has been planted in sunflowers and used for bird hunting in the past, but has not been hunted for deer in recent times. This area of Taylor County has a good population of whitetail deer, turkey, dove, quail, and feral hogs. The thick cover of native pasture and the creek area should provide a draw for wildlife and with some management, the hunting should be very good.
Residence and Improvements:
Minerals: The seller believes they own 100% of the mineral rights, and are willing to convey all owned with an acceptable offer.
Price: The property is priced at $2,700 per acre for a total price of $411,750.
