Hunt County, Texas Land For Sale (3 results)

Overview: The Nelson Ranch @ Lake Fork Creek has been family-owned since the early 1970s. It is a versatile, unique offering in Lone Oak, Texas, just over an hour east of Dallas, TX. Down the quiet county road, the property's storybook setting begins with a quaint two bedroom/1 bath farmhouse overlooking silhouetted hardwood-lined pastures. Within walking distance is a rustic barn and shop where the current owner spends much of their time on woodworking projects utilizing native timber from the forested river bottoms. The gentle herd of cattle grazing the ranch are thoroughly cared for and may act more like pets than livestock due to the owner's love and passion for livestock. It is not uncommon for the herd to make its way up to the barn and be hand-sprayed with cool well-water to cool off from the Texas summer heat. Lake Fork Creek binds the ranch as most of the western and southern boundaries. Meandering throughout the ranch is a seasonal creek, Arr Branch, which serves as a travel corridor for native wildlife that has remained untouched by the current owner for a number of years. For the fishing enthusiast, the Nelson Ranch provides access to a shared 27+/- acre soil conservation lake on the ranch's east side. Some neighboring landowners have highly managed the lake, which has proven to be a very productive fishery for largemouth bass. Painstakingly cleared of most Honey Locust trees, the pastures are thoughtfully grazed throughout the summer. The community is tight-knit, and each neighbor lends a helping hand when needed and checks on each other from time to time.

Terrain & Wildlife Habitat: The undulating topography ranges throughout the ranch between 460' and 510' above sea level. Most western and southern boundaries are formed by Lake Fork Creek, abutting the property for over one mile. The ranch boasts abundant diversity within its boundaries, featuring mature hardwood stands that range from highly managed to native and bursting with wildlife habitat and native browse. Native and improved pastures meander and create a mosaic of habitat structures throughout the ranch. The timber stands consist of both red and white oak varieties, native pecan, an abundance of black walnut, bois d'arc, cedar elm, black gum, cottonwood, persimmon, and locust, with willow and river birch along the riparian areas—the northern and central portions of the property feature well-manicured areas with mature timber and excellent tree cover. Improved trails run throughout for reliable access.

Soil: Predominately sandy loam in nature, the soil in the southern portion of the ranch is Nahatche loam and frequently floods due to its proximity to Lake Fork Creek and Arr Branch. This area appears to drain well and not completely inundated during times of flood.

Depending on soil tests, the potential is maximized with proper lime and fertilizer applications.

The farmhouse is estimated to be 1,091+/- square feet and has a covered back porch to enjoy fresh country air. Two barns totaling over 5,800+ square feet offer ample space for boats, ATVs, blinds, tools, tractors, equipment, and more. In the northeast corner of the property is a 3,915+/- square foot r-panel barn for hay storage. Water: Over 27+/- acres of surface water highlights the recreational appeal of the property, complemented by an improved and easily traversable trail system providing access throughout the property. Water features include 10 stock ponds, a duck slough, over 14,735 feet of year-round creeks and drainages, and a shared 27-acre soil conservation lake. The lake is well-managed, has a healthy appearance and boasts clean frontage, making it an excellent gathering place for friends and family. The shared 27-acre lake was restocked in 2012 with Largemouth Bass, Black Crappie, and associated baitfish, records provided upon inquiry. Arr Branch meanders throughout the property, eventually tying into Lake Fork Creek at the southeast corner of the ranch. Over time, Arr Branch has created natural sloughs and shallow bodies of water where waterfowl frequent in the Fall and Winter months. These moist soil units can be enhanced with water manipulation and habitat management.
