Gunsolus Creek Ranch

Gunsolus Creek Ranch spans approximately 245 acres in northern Stephens County, just outside the small community of Crystal Falls, Texas. Thoughtfully developed by its current owners, the ranch is a turnkey recreational property with excellent road and trail system, established hunting setups, abundant water, and a beautifully appointed home, making it equally suited for adventure or relaxation. As you arrive through the front gate, a manicured rock driveway leads to a newly constructed stone home. Designed around an open-concept layout, the residence is filled with natural light and captures sweeping views of the landscape, wildlife, and sunsets. The spacious living room features a rock fireplace and a large kitchen island, while the layout includes two guest bedrooms with a shared bath and a private primary suite with a luxurious bathroom and an oversized walk-in closet. A mudroom with a dog-washing station and direct access to the attached carport adds everyday convenience. Located a short distance from the home, an established deer camp provides additional accommodations for family and guests while maintaining privacy. Gunsolus Creek Ranch is predominantly level with a gentle slope toward the back of the property. Native mesquite and scattered live oaks create excellent habitat, complemented by abundant surface water. Two ponds near the home offer outstanding fishing. A wet-weather draw traverses the ranch and feeds a centrally located pond, while Gunsolus Creek forms the southwestern boundary and typically retains water even during dry periods. Together, these water features support healthy populations of whitetail deer, turkey, and other native wildlife. Two years ago, the ranch was treated with aerial spraying to manage the prickly pear, and the impressive results speak for themselves. An extensive trail system provides easy access throughout the property and connects three established hunting areas with blinds, feeders, and food plots.

AGENT COMMENTS: Some ranches offer great hunting, others a beautiful home, but Gunsolus Creek Ranch delivers both. From fishing stocked ponds and watching wildlife from the back porch to exploring miles of trails and hunting setups, this property is ready to enjoy from day one. Thoughtfully improved and turnkey, it's the kind of family ranch rarely available in Stephens County.

Notes: * A new survey has been ordered and is coming soon. ** The mobile home does not have a title, but the owners are actively working to resolve this issue. If a buyer is not interested in keeping the mobile home, the seller is willing to relocate it to another property.*** The current owners have multiple custom-made home fixtures with their ranch brand; these items will not convey and will be replaced before closing. Additionally, I was informed that for the right price, they would pay to have the new fixtures made with the buyer's unique brand. Listing Agent: Travis Patterson 254-246-5266
