Lot 58

Start where the tract meets the world. Follow the northern line and you're walking beside an existing dirt ranch road, the kind you can rattle down slow with the windows open, and that same road bends around and holds the eastern corner too. Ten acres and change here at Tract 58 of Lohn Hollow Ranch, one of the smaller pieces of ranch land for sale in this stretch of Central Texas roughly 9 miles up from Brady. The road doesn't just skirt the edges either. It runs clean through, coming in at the northeast corner and cutting down to the southwest, better than a quarter mile of hard-worn track already laid across the place. That means your way in is already made.

Work your way down the west and the interior and the tract lays out flat. Truly flat, only 3 ft of fall from one side to the other, so there's no fighting the land for a spot to set a cabin or a camp. You pick your corner, level a pad, and you're done. That kind of even footing is worth more than it sounds. Ask anyone who's tried to build on a grade.

Along the boundary where the road runs, a powerline was put in. If you decide you want power out here someday, the line's close, and we'll show you exactly where it comes and let you sort the details with the co-op. The ground itself carries the same mix that gives this part of the state its character, post oak and mesquite and cedar breaking up the open grass, whitetail and dove and Rio Grande birds working through the draws come evening. It's quiet out here. The kind of quiet where you notice the wind before you notice anything else.

This is one of the more affordable pieces on the ranch, and it comes with the same straightforward terms the others do, owner financing with as little as 5% down and only light restrictions to keep the place looking like a ranch and not a subdivision. No commercial hunting next door. Ten acres is a manageable thing, small enough to keep and big enough to matter, close enough to Brady that a supply run is nothing.

Come see it in the fall when the grass has cured gold and the deer are moving. Wear boots that don't mind a little caliche dust, and we'll drive you right down the ranch road to the middle of it.
