Hunting, ranching, fishing, weekend home, close to amenities, close to markets and employment, close to Austin, and an extremely well kept and scenic property. The size and layout of this beautiful property make it the perfect fit for the “close to everything but far enough away buyer”. There is so much packed into this +/- 134 acre ranch that is naturally beautiful and properly improved with nice home and barns. It absolutely checks all the boxes!
Nestled in the picturesque countryside of Lexington, Texas, this +/-134-acre ranch boasts a rich history and offers a rare opportunity to own an impeccably maintained piece of Texas. Named Big C (or officially Big Cock Ranch) after an oversized rooster that used to roam the front portion of the ranch, this land is as good as it gets for the area. The property features beautiful rolling grass hills, highly improved costal hay fields, highway road frontage as well as paved county road frontage and is accented by many majestic trees, creating both, a serene landscape and diverse investment opportunity. This ranch is distinguished by its 4 ponds and a meandering wet weather creek adding both charm and functionality to the land. Whether used for fishing, livestock, hunting, or simply enjoying the peaceful water views, these water features enhance the beauty and versatility of the property.
As you enter the property, you are greeted by a tree-lined drive that leads to a lightly remodeled ranch house, offering a comfortable and inviting living space. The house features a spacious layout, with modern amenities and rustic charm, making it the perfect retreat after a long day enjoying the ranch. The home was built around 1975 and recently updated and features four bedrooms and three bathrooms with a spacious open floor plan. At approximately 2,438sf, this magnificent home is well suited as a weekend home, a temporary home while you build your dream home, or a permanent residence.
Additionally, there is a drive through 40x30 shop with an extended carport covering, providing ample space for storage, hobbies, or work projects. This workspace handily provides plumbing with a sink. Next to the shop, an RV pad with utility hook ups is ready to handle any overflow guests. There is also an equipment shed, hay barn, and covered working pens. One of the standout features of this ranch is the underground water lines that run to troughs in all fields, ensuring efficient water access for livestock. This feature, combined with the well-maintained perimeter fences, cross-fencing, and cattle guards makes this ranch a turn-key operation for cattle or other livestock.
Located an easy drive from Austin, an easy commute to the new Samsung Facility, Tesla, or the other major employers east of Austin, as well as Houston or College Station, the location is perfect.
