Description

Concealed deep in the country on a scarcely traveled dirt road sits Double LJ Ranch. This ranch is as secluded as county road access gets.  An electric gate sitting just off a bend in the road invites one into a truly beautiful property with a house nestled in the hills. The land consists of post-oak-covered hilltops overlooking big bull mesquites and large live-oak clusters in the pastures. The northern portion of the property contains headquarters with a catfish pond and a bass pond: both with a dock for fishing. Four other ponds sit on three different draws with the potential for more surface water after the draws combine. The acreage is cross-fenced into four pastures with ranch roads to access all parts of the land. The 2-bedroom home is adequately sized for a retirement property or a weekend getaway. The structure is solid and well-built with wood siding and farmhouse architectural features gracing the exterior. The interior is clean, featuring a roomy kitchen and dining area. This home includes a basement with elevator access for the laundry utilities and extra storage. The headquarters is fenced with a metal shop that contains small living quarters, concrete flooring, insulation, and room for storage as well as a wood-framed barn for covering equipment.  Being just south of the Brazos and north of the Clear Fork, Double LJ Ranch lies in an outstanding region for wildlife with large neighboring ranches in the area. 

Broker's Comments -- Macabee Rd is hands down the coolest road in Young County...cutting thru secluded and rugged country on a county-maintained dirt road. If one isn't familiar with this area, they don't travel down this road. The ride in sets the stage and the land does not disappoint. This place is ideal for those looking to escape the sounds of civilization and just be out in the woods. The house has solid "bones" and could be updated to perfectly suit one's needs without the need to build during these wild times.
