Lot 50

Late September, an hour before dark, the heat finally breaking. You pull off the new ranch road at the top of this triangular tract and cut the engine. The dirt road bends away toward the far corner, easy under your boots even after a wet week. Everything gets quiet. This is the hour the whitetail start to move, and on Tract 50 at Lohn Hollow Ranch, they move through the middle of your own 20.04 acres.

What sets this piece apart is where it sits. Dead center of a 1,899-acre ranch, wrapped in cover on every side, with the wider place buffering you from the world beyond. That's why it hunts the way it does. The brush grows thick here, elm and hackberry and cedar knotted up with post oak, the sort of tangle that holds game and gives a buck a reason to bed down close. You won't be pushing through it, though. The road sees to that.

About 590 ft of existing dirt ranch road already lies on the tract, running toward the northwest corner. Follow it in and you've got a made path to the heart of the property without a blade of your own. Where you set a camp, a stand, or a homesite pad is your call, and the road already reaches the part of the tract most worth reaching.

The shape is a triangle, and each of the three sides does something. The north line follows the new ranch road, and the power that runs it is right there at the top of the tract. Electric is available at Lohn Hollow, and this line puts it close, which matters when you're figuring where a cabin might go someday. The south side is the long diagonal, tracing the edge of a pipeline right-of-way. A pipeline easement borders that side of the property.

The land itself rolls easy, only about 18 ft of fall from one end to the other, so nothing here fights you. You can drive it, work it, hunt it, and never wrestle the terrain. Central Texas ranch land for sale this close to the geographic center of the state doesn't usually hand you both the cover and the access on one plat, and this tract does.

Brady lies 9 miles south when you need feed, fuel, or a meal, close enough to make a weekend easy and far enough to feel the seclusion of a big ranch around you. We keep the rules light here, no commercial outfitting, so the wildlife stays yours. Owner financing is available with as little as 5% down, and the terms are printed right beside this listing.

Come see it in the fall if you can, when the cover's still heavy and the deer are on their feet. Wear boots you don't mind getting into the brush, and we'll drive the ranch road with you straight to the corner where it turns in. You'll want to stand in the center and listen.
