(+/-) ranch is surrounded by very large ranches for this part of Texas, which gives it seclusion and privacy. The rolling terrain features a woodland wildlife of deer, turkey, ducks and other seasonal birds amongst the Red Oak, Madrone, and Mountain Laurel trees. The ranch grounds have been thoughtfully improved, with a dry stack rock wall entrance, a mile long paved road, and a lake. The lake's dam was constructed with a 12-foot-wide compacted clay core, galvanized drain with an overflow, and a concrete spill way. At the heart of The Ranch is an extraordinary 5,270 sq. ft. home overlooking the lake. The timber frame and stone structure reflects the architectural heritage of the European settlers to this part of Texas. The compound consists of two structures. The main building houses the living room, dining room, powder room, kitchen, mud room, laundry room, and butler's pantry. On the second floor there are two guest bedrooms, playroom, and shared full bath. The second structure consists of the primary bedroom and bath on the main floor, and on the second floor the theater, full bath, and office. The timber frame was logged in Ohio by the Amish and shipped to Texas Timber Frame in San Antonio for the mortis and tendon journey work and erection. There are over 3,000 mortise and tendon precise handcrafted joints in the structure. The 15-inch-thick limestone and stud walls provide a substantial insulating system. The solid cherry and maple cabinetry was all milled-on site. The long leaf pine floors were reclaimed from floor joists from an old, razed hotel in New Orleans. The living room and dining room both have authentic Count Rumford fireplaces.
