Overview
Ideal location for private ranch / ranchette.
Ultimate in privacy, yet 5 minutes from downtown Waxahachie and 5 minutes to boat ramp at Waxahachie Lake, plenty of room to build multiple buildings, shelters, etc. No flood plain exposure, good elevation and drainage, 50 acres agriculturally exempt 90+% farm or pasture, remainder is heavily wooded with creek fed by multiple springs. Head waters of this creek begin on one end of property ending with significant elevation drop in creek on other end of property to shallow pool with fish and plenty of room for fossil hunting, exploring, wildlife watching, trapping, etc. The natural creek erosion has exposed the Austin chalk formation providing spectacular views of sedimentary shelves with embedded fossils as you hike along the creek bed. Creek has yet to be named. Trees include cedar, hackberry, and pecan, and long stands of wild mustang grapes easily accessible and perfect for canning. Three separate pastures naturally break the land by heavy tree lines which provide boundaries for rotating grazing livestock.
Strip of land on opposite side of creek contains untapped natural gravel pit. Large sand deposit is easily accessible near pad sites. 1800' of newly created 20' wide white rock private road with 20 culverts and two turns as well as a 2" water line along entire road length with city meter installed at Howard Road, leading back to pad sites.
