HEADQUARTERS: Pass through the large stone
and brick walls that guard the iron entrance gate, and it’s quite apparent you’ve arrived at a rare
offering. Proceed down the concrete drive along a
coastal meadow on the left and several horse
paddocks on the right, and the clear evidence of a
well-managed and thoughtfully cared for property is ever increasing as you reach the exquisite JT Ranch
headquarters. Nestled among a canopy of mature
live oaks and perched on a point above the lake is
the well-appointed main ranch home, guest/pool
house, and large ranch operations shop. Just a short drive to the north is a fully equipped horse barn and
to the east, a large equipment barn. This
combination of site improvements comes together
to provide comfort, convenience, and functionality
at its best.
28+/- ACRE LAKE: Anchoring the abundance of
surface water found at JT Ranch is a 28+/- acre soil
conservation lake. Perfect for water recreation of all
types, enjoy your morning out on a boat chasing big bass and afternoon jet skiing, kayaking, or
canoeing with family and friends. A concrete boat
ramp and multi-level floating dock with boat slips
are ready for your choice of water craft. The dock
also offers a cleaning station on the main level and a large sitting area with water slide access on the
upper deck. The lake’s surroundings are well
maintained and even park-like near the
headquarters. A great spot to sit in the shade under
a big ol’ live oak and catch a cool breeze, or relax by the fire pit and watch the night sky fill up with
stars.

area, two bedrooms, four full baths, one half-bath,

CATTLE AND HAY PRODUCTION: Meticulously
managed and maintained for cattle and hay production, the average carrying capacity is
believed to be 1 animal unit per 6 acres. The ranch
is ideally setup for rotational grazing and is cross
fenced into 12 separate pastures with a catch pen
and good set of working pens. In two cuttings this spring on approximately 77 acres, the property
produced 500 round bales of coastal hay.
WILDLIFE & HUNTING: With portions of the
property heavily wooded, there is ample cover for attracting and holding the abundance of whitetail
deer, Rio Grande turkey, hog, and varmint found at
JT Ranch. Two fields covering a combined total of
40+/- acres are annually plowed and sown in oats,
only adding to the appeal by wildlife. Seasonal dove hunting can be excellent in the area and the
lake is a proven winter stop for a wide variety of
duck and other water fowl.
TERRAIN: Typical of this portion of the Cross Timbers region, the land is rolling and scenic with a
mix of heavily wooded acreage, scattered woods,
fertile pastures, and tillable fields. Tree cover
consists primarily of live oak, post oak, red oak, and
elm, with some mesquite and cedar intermixed. Ranging in elevations from 1579’ found along a
ridge near the northeast corner of the property, to
1392’ near the southwest corner, the ranch yields an
unexpected 187’+/- of overall elevation change and
distant views of the surrounding countryside and ranch itself. Soils are primarily Windthorst and
Duffau sandy loam and ideal for growing coastal
and/or small grains.
