This outstanding ranch features deep riverbanks, giant majestic live oak trees, and outstanding wildlife habitat in a peaceful, private, and secluded setting - it is a true haven for hunters, ranchers, and nature enthusiasts alike. Completed in 2024, the well-appointed ranch home offers 1,856 square feet of living space along with 640 square feet of covered porches. The home features 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Upon entering the front door, you are welcomed into an open-concept living and kitchen area with convenient access to the backyard through a rear exterior door. A dedicated mud room with washer and dryer hookups also includes exterior access. The home is fully foam-spray insulated for maximum energy efficiency and is being sold fully furnished, including all furniture, TVs, and kitchen appliances - refrigerator, stove with oven, and microwave - making it completely move-in ready. Adjacent to the home is a 1,152-square-foot concrete slab ideal for parking, entertaining, or hosting outdoor gatherings and barbecues. Additional improvements include an older equipment barn with shed, office space and cattle pens. There is a walk-in cooler, and multiple hunting blinds and feeders strategically set up. River corridors in South Texas create some of the richest wildlife habitats in the region, and this ranch is no exception. The property supports thriving populations of Rio Grande wild turkeys, native whitetail deer, feral hogs, and a wide variety of other native species. The property features 3-phase power on site and a Carrizo water well drilled in 2023. The well is equipped with a 15 HP pump and produces approximately 76 gallons per minute. A 2,500-gallon water storage tank is located near the home. With almost 100 acres of heavily wooded bottomland the ranch is a haven for wildlife including whitetail deer, turkey, feral hogs, quail, dove, ducks and fishing. The ranch is low fenced with good internal roads. Conveniently located just 1.5 hours SW of San Antonio, minutes north of Crystal City and 30 minutes south of Uvalde. The property sits one mile down a county road to the front gate; the ranch offers privacy without sacrificing accessibility. This property offers an exceptional combination of river frontage, recreational appeal, and comfortable modern living. With 3-phase power, strong water production, and quality improvements already in place, Big Oaks River Ranch is well-equipped for immediate enjoyment and long-term investment. This ranch is truly turnkey and ready to be enjoyed from day one.
