A hidden gem sits just five miles West of Possum Kingdom Lake. Kennedy Ranch is 977+/- acres of rugged yet beautiful land. This “combo” ranch has been managed for both hunting and grazing by creating ample “edge” and preserving proper brush in the breaks and draws. These methods provide substantial grass for bedding and livestock, with ideal brush to attract local wildlife.Kennedy Ranch comprises three distinct areas of character. The "top" or northern portion of this ranch contains flat, mesquite country with hackberry and large live oak clusters. Splitting Kennedy Ranch's terrain is a cedar and oak-covered limestone shelf with large outcroppings. Water resources are abundant, with Cedar Creek, 4-6 acre lakes, and scattered ponds supporting the acreage. "K-Lake" is right at 6 acres when full providing deep water by being positioned in a ravine offering more than 25 feet of depth and over half a mile of rock-lined shoreline, creating ideal conditions for exceptional fishing. The “Duck Pond” features an island and peninsula that form prime shallow-water habitat, producing excellent feeding grounds for ducks, geese, and bass. In the southern portion, Cedar Creek runs seasonally around huge boulders and bends, while holding water year-round. This wandering, wooded creek creates excellent turkey habitat with gigantic oaks and elms.In summary, Kennedy Ranch offers an unparalleled blend of natural beauty and functional design, making it a prime destination for both hunters and ranchers alike. Its diverse terrain, abundant water sources, and careful management practices ensure a thriving ecosystem and excellent opportunities for recreation and livestock. Whether seeking a serene retreat or a productive working ranch, Kennedy Ranch stands out as a remarkable property in the heart of Texas.-- IMPROVEMENTS & STRUCTURES --Pipe Pens ~ 2 sets NW & SEFence ~ good to fair, barbed wire, cross-fenced; W boundary high-fenced Water ~ no water meter or water well; some underground water in the areaRoads ~ good roads through the ranch, trails accessing the feeders & creeksPens & Traps ~ working pens on NW & SE near easement entrance; good to fair -- WATER, TERRAIN & COVER --Surface Water ~ 6ac-Bass Lake, 4ac-Duck Pond, 3 stock tanks at 1.2ac, .7ac, and .5acCreek Frontage - 1.4mi -Cedar Creek; SE-live water, W-seasonal, huge boulders & bendsElevation ~ 170ft, splits the acreage; flat on top; draws to the creekTree Cover ~ 100% native pasture; live oak, post oak, mesquite, hackberry, elmUnderbrush ~100% moderate; elbowbush, skunkbush, bumelia, prickly-pearNative Grasses ~ some areas cleared for grass, leased and willing to stay -- HUNTING & RECREATION --Wildlife ~ whitetail deer, dove, duck, Rio Grande turkey, hog, varmintHabitat ~ post & live-oaks producing ample acorns, excellent grass for beddingPressure ~ same hunters for leased for 27 years; quality groupFishing ~ multiple fishing lakes & ponds; bass, catfish, perchFood Plots ~ no current food plots or cultivation, multiple ideal locations -- MINERALS & WIND --Mineral Rights ~ 100% of the owned PRODUCING MINERALS CONVEYO&G Production ~ 8 producing wells, 2 sets of batteries, 3.5in natural gas pipelineElectricity ~ 138KV Transmission Lines along the western boundary, OncorWind Rights ~ 100% wind rights owned & conveyWind Production ~ no visible turbines or active leases -- ACCESS & DISTANCES --Access Easements ~ (W) 1.5mi to FM 1148-dirt; (E) 1mi to FM 3253-rockNearby Towns ~ 18mi NE of Breckenridge, 23mi SW of GrahamMajor Cities ~ 83mi NE of Abeline, 100mi W of Fort WorthAirports ~ 19 mi NE of Stephens County Mun'l Airport (BKD), 130mi W of DFW Int'l (DFW)Easements ~ O&G-Delta, Targa Natural Gas-3.5in; Oncor Transmission Lines
