Barton Hollow Ranch, 118.3+/- Acres

The Barton Hollow Ranch offers a rare combination of rugged recreational country and established agricultural use, all within an easy drive of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The recreational potential has gone largely untapped, leaving a property that is both productive today and ready for an owner who wants to develop it into a serious hunting and family retreat. Topography is the first thing that sets this tract apart. More than 150 feet of elevation change rolls across the property, creating ridges, draws, and rock hillsides that give the land real character and hold game. Sixty percent of the acreage is rolling oak cover, with the balance in semi-open native grass country broken by exposed rock. Along the ridgeline of the main hill sit rock bluffs and deep sanctuary cover, the kind of terrain that keeps mature deer on the property rather than moving to a neighbor. From the highest point on the tract, you take in some of the best long-range views Jack County has to offer, with no other rooftops in sight. Water is well represented on the Barton Hollow Ranch. A 2-acre pond anchors the main body of the property and holds bass and panfish, giving an owner fishing at the doorstep without hauling a boat anywhere. Three additional smaller ponds supplement wildlife habitat and spread water across the tract. A pair of small rock-bottom creeks wind through the property, their beds scattered with flint. A clean, tested water well serves the improvements and carries enough pressure to fill the 2-acre pond if it is ever needed, a meaningful advantage in North Texas. Wildlife populations are strong and documented. The property holds whitetail deer, Rio Grande turkey, ducks, and a variety of small game, with recent harvest history to back it up. The mix of oak cover, native grass openings, multiple water sources, and rugged sanctuary of terrain gives game everything it needs to stay put year-round. Access and improvements are already in place. A private gravel easement road runs from the county road through a gated entrance and carries all the way into the main part of the property, so there is no fighting for access in wet weather. At the edge of the main pond sits a like-new 2015 fifth wheel travel trailer set on blocks beneath a covered pavilion, ready to use as a camp house from day one. The fifth wheel conveys with the property. Behind it stands a metal barn concealing a Kubota tractor and attachments, which also convey, along with a covered car park. The main site has electric connected, a water well, and septic, meaning an owner can step in and use the place immediately or build a permanent home on established utilities. If the draw is chasing whitetails, turkey, waterfowl, fishing the pond, running ATVs across the hills, running cattle, or simply having quiet country to disappear into, this tract has you covered. The bones are here and the infrastructure is ready, leaving plenty of room to customize food plots, blinds, trails, and a homesite to your own plan.
