FM 501, Cherokee, TX 76832 - San Saba County

Untamed Texas Hill Country ranch has the essential elements of a great working ranch and recreational property - maybe that's why the same family has held it for generations. All the acreage is native pasture heavily covered in large live oaks, post oaks, blackjack, elms, mesquite, cedar, bush persimmon, and brush interspersed with open grassy areas. High hills punctuate the landscape with awesome views of miles and miles of wild Texas. Seasonal creeks run through draws lined with limestone ledges and rocky bluffs. Historically and currently used as a cattle ranch because of the ideal grazing conditions, the ranch is divided into 5 pastures with water in each pasture and 2 sets of working pens. The small rock house at the old ranch headquarters is used by hunters. Electric service is at the house and water well at the old headquarters. The water from the well is good and sweet. Two windmills and water storage reservoirs assure plenty of water for livestock and wildlife. There are stock ponds, one quite large, that are dry now due to the drought but often provide surface water along with pooled water in the creeks. Underground water in this area is considered to be plentiful and excellent quality. This ranch is located in southeastern San Saba County and surrounded by other very large ranches that, like this one, have been owned by the same families for generations. The low perimeter and cross-fences allow the natural flow of a big population and variety of wild game deer, turkey, doves, feral hogs, etc....a hunters dream! Over a mile of frontage on paved FM 501 and good pasture roads assure easy access.
