The Del Venado Ranch Southeast Tract offers 2,643 acres of rolling West-Central Texas ranchland located entirely in Menard County. This tract is part of the larger Del Venado Ranch, a legacy ranch that has been in the same family for decades, and additional contiguous acreage is available for purchase for a buyer wanting a larger block. Ranches of this size and quality rarely come available in this part of Texas, and this tract offers a strong combination of productive grazing, good hunting, abundant live oak cover, and dependable access. The tract is located approximately 17 miles from Menard, 33 miles from San Angelo, and about 145 miles from Austin. The west boundary of the property is Treadwell Lane, a county-maintained public road, which provides easy year-round access without crossing another owner's property. The terrain is rolling, with scattered live oak trees across the hills and draws along with pockets of mesquite and cedar typical of the region. Several elevated areas provide nice long-range views of the surrounding countryside. Numerous small draws run through the tract and serve as natural wildlife travel corridors and cover. Water is provided by two working water wells. There are no major creeks or large surface water features on the tract, but the wells provide dependable water for both livestock and wildlife. The property has been used historically for cattle grazing and recreational hunting. Native wildlife populations are strong, and the tract supports whitetail deer, turkey, quail, feral hogs, axis deer, and blackbuck antelope. The mix of brush cover, open grazing areas, and scattered live oaks gives the property good habitat diversity. The tract is perimeter fenced and cross-fenced, with a portion of the perimeter being high fence and the balance low fence. Working cattle pens are in place, electricity is available on the property, and a decent interior road system provides access across most of the tract. The property is currently agriculturally exempt, which helps keep the property taxes manageable. The sale is surface only, though there is a possibility that minerals could convey with the sale. The tract is currently under a wind lease, and all wind rights associated with the property will transfer with the sale. There is no current wind development on the property. For a buyer looking for a large, accessible hunting and grazing ranch in a desirable part of Texas - with the option to add adjoining acreage - the Del Venado Ranch Southeast Tract is worth a close look.
