The custom built 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom residence is thoughtfully designed with two distinct wings, blending timeless craftsmanship with modern comfort. The original home was constructed in 2005, while a beautifully integrated addition completed in 2023 expands the living space without compromising its character.

Shop: Complementing the residence is a spacious pole barn that provides ample room for tractors, equipment, vehicles, implements, and tools. The barn also serves as an excellent workspace and features a walk-in cooler, making game processing and cleanup after a successful hunt exceptionally convenient.

Hunting and Wildlife:

The Double V Ranch was designed with the serious sportsman in mind, featuring nearly 17,000 feet of perimeter game fencing and a proven wildlife management program. The ranch is home to improved typical genetic whitetails, with mature trophy bucks consistently reaching 180-200 inches. The largest buck on the ranch scored an impressive 230 inches, a testament to the exceptional genetics, habitat, and long-term management that have been invested into this ranch. The current herd maintains an excellent buck to doe ratio of approximately 1:1.6, consisting of roughly 24 bucks, 39 does, and 5 fawns.

In addition to its outstanding whitetail program, Double V Ranch offers an impressive variety of exotic wildlife, including scimitar horned oryx, blackbuck, zebra, and watusi. The property is also home to a variety of native game such as turkeys, doves, ducks and geese. The ranch has been thoughtfully managed with established food plots planted in oats, rye, and soybeans, providing year round nutrition and attracting wildlife across the property. A network of strategically placed hunting setups provides a wide range of hunting opportunities throughout the ranch. Five box blinds, multiple bow stands, five corn feeders and two protein feeders will convey with the sale, further enhancing the ranch's ability to maintain and improve its already impressive wildlife program.

Land:

The current owner has been a steward of the land, paying attention to every corner of the ranch. A well maintained network of interior roads provides easy access throughout the property, making it convenient to reach pastures, hunting areas, water features, and fence lines.

The ranch features nearly 200 feet of topographic variance, creating the rolling terrain that has earned Bosque County the nickname "Dallas' Hill Country." Exceptional water features, including a 3± acre lake, a 3/4 -acre pond, and two wet weather creeks, are spread throughout the landscape.

The front portion of the property is more open, offering productive grasses for both cattle and wildlife grazing. As you move toward the back of the ranch, the elevation gradually rises and the vegetation becomes thicker, with live oaks, post oaks, and cedar trees providing an excellent habitat for wildlife. Regular maintenance, including road work, mowing, pruning, and general upkeep, has kept the ranch in excellent condition, making it truly ready for its next owner.

Water:

The centerpiece of the ranch is its stunning 3± acre lake, offering year round recreation and scenic beauty. Stocked with Florida largemouth bass, the lake provides outstanding fishing while serving as a natural gathering place for wildlife. During the winter months, it attracts migrating waterfowl, with ducks and geese regularly using the lake. A couple pairs of resident geese even return each spring to nest and raise their young.

In addition to the main lake, the ranch features a well-maintained 3/4 -acre pond equipped with a fish feeder. A cattle tank and two seasonal creeks enhance both the landscape and give wildlife a year round water source. One of the creeks includes a picturesque waterfall where water cascades over a limestone ledge into the creek below, creating one of the ranch's most scenic natural features.
