Property Description
Reed Ranch sits atop a rare band of fine sandy loam soils (Padina and Rader) forming a distinctive “sand hill” ecosystem more commonly found in East Texas and Southeast Louisiana. With sand depths from 6-12', the property supports a remarkable mix of mature loblolly pines, bluejack oaks, dogwood, farkleberry, sassafras, river birch, and towering tupelos, creating an environment reminiscent of the Lost Pines of Bastrop.
The fine sandy loam results in exceptional internal drainage and a consistently high water table. Even during extended droughts, mature trees have thrived and the pond maintains its level, fed by groundwater. A handdug well visibly demonstrates the fluctuating water table, while a deeper well at 280' produces exceptionally pure, neutral-pH water—comparable to water drawn from the Ogallala Aquifer.
Approximately 70% of the property is wooded, miles of cleared roads, fence lines, and shooting lanes. Wildlife is abundant, including deer, rabbit, squirrel, bobcat, fox, and pileated woodpeckers, with documented trophy bucks and solid bass fishing in the pond.
Improvements include a fully furnished cabin with 4-ton AC/heat unit and bedroom mini-splits, hunting stands with feeders, and two sheds for equipment and recreational vehicles. The setting is quiet, peaceful, and serene, offering a rare blend of ecological character, recreation, and practical amenities.
