Land
The majority of the land is open with scattered mature Pecan Trees, with the balance being heavily wooded bottomland. Nearly the entire boundary is heavily wooded which is great for wildlife and adds privacy to the property. There is approximately 100 acres of fertile farmland that is currently leased to a local farmer. This area could continue as farmland, or could easily convert over to grass. There are over 100 Pecan trees, which have been harvested in the past. The highest elevated points are where the improvements are located and along the western boundary. The remainder is level to sloping towards the river. There is ample wildlife on the property. Nearly every day white tail deer are spotted. In addition to deer other wildlife known to travel the property are Turkey, Dove, Quail, Geese, bobcat, coyote, and road runner. The majority of the boundary is fenced, with exception to the boundary along the river and a portion of the western boundary.
There is a 2 mile wooded trail system along the river which is great for hiking, horseback riding, ATV riding, etc. The Sellers have an agreement with Wichita Falls Streams and Valleys for use of the trails twice a year; in exchange, they maintain the trail system. This agreement can be transferred to a buyer, or terminated.
The area surrounding the improvements is outside of the flood plain. The remainder of the land is within the flood plain. The Sellers have owned and lived on the property since 2006. However, the property has been in the family since 1970. Over this time, they have not had water near the improvements, and FEMA has designated the area of improvements as out of the flood plain.
