Lot 27

Tract 27 is a piece built for a camp with an easy way in and a dry creek to give it character. This is 35.97 acres of Edwards County ranch land for sale on the Alamo Ranch, 13 south of Rocksprings off Highway 55 and County Road 310. What it does best is simple. It hands you a creek bottom on the east and a made road on the southern edge, so you can get onto the useful part of it the same afternoon you sign.

Start with that dry creek. It threads in from the northeast corner and bends toward the southern boundary, close to 1,180 ft of it crossing the tract, with a shorter branch reaching over toward the east. This is seasonal water, the way most creeks in this part of the world are, dry a good stretch of the year and moving after a rain. What that draw buys you is a natural line where the terrain funnels wildlife and where the trees have taken hold. The northeast corner, where the creek enters, is where you'll find what shade there is on the tract. Everything else opens up.

The new ranch trail on the southern part of the tract is the reason this one is easy to own. Roughly 280 ft of existing dirt road already lies on the south, so you're not cutting a path in from scratch. Follow it and you reach a ford where the track drops across the creek bed on the south side. That crossing is the honest heart of the place. It's where you'd bring a truck through, where you'd sit of an evening and watch the draw, and where a camp would naturally want to face.

The land climbs. From the low end to the high end the tract picks up about 78 ft, roughly 2,047 to 2,125 ft, enough rise that you'll feel the change under your boots and enough to give a homesite some drainage and some elevation to sit on. Whitetail and axis move across this ranch, along with aoudad, elk, turkey, and dove, and a dry creek bottom like this one is exactly the sort of line they follow at dusk.

Electric is near the county road and at points across the ranch, worth confirming with us for where service comes to this tract. The Alamo Ranch carries light rules, no commercial operations, so you keep the quiet and the room to do your own thing. The boundaries here are surveyed, and title work governs the corners and the crossing, so we'll go over the plat with you before anything is signed.

Owner financing is on the table with as little as 5% down, which is how most folks step onto this ranch. Come see it after a rain if you can, when the draw shows you what it does. We'll take you in off the county road, follow the ranch trail to the ford, and let you stand at the crossing and picture the rest.
