Description
Visit the Auction Website at www.KwTexasAuctions.com! The South Pettijohn Ranch, located in the game-rich Warren Creek area of Hamilton County offers the sportsman and the livestock producer endless opportunities. These 872+/- acres are easily accessible yet far enough from the beaten path to escape the distractions of more populated areas. Current ownership has improved the ranch into a practical livestock production property with abundant water reservoirs, 5 and 7 strand perimeter and cross fencing, truck accessible gates and much more. 80' elevation changes, plenty of water and natural cover allow the South Pettijohn to serve new ownership as a private or commercial hunting opportunity. The South Pettijohn boasts an impressive 14 ponds and two all season springs throughout the three tracts. A partially refurbished residence, two cabins, three barns with livestock pens and an equipment barn complete the improvements on this Hamilton County ranch. Current owners have 782 mineral acres and are offering 50% of their ownership to the successful bidder(s). Prospective bidders may bid on any individual tract, any combination of the tracts or the ranch in its entirety. If you have been looking for unique, water bearing ranch and/or recreational land in Central Texas then this is your opportunity to buy 155 to 872 acres at true market value.
