Description
"77 Ranch" is known as one of the best working ranches in Madison County. Well located on Highway 75, 8 miles south of Madisonville, just West of I-45, fronting upon State Highway 75. Property is fenced, and cross fenced into multiple pastures in a functional manner. Ranch currently carries 300 mature cows, 20 to 30 replacement heifers and 14 to 16 mature bulls. Approximately 150 acres is in improved coastal Bermuda hay and yields 600 to 900 rolls, depending upon conditions. Approximately 300+ acres of the ranch lie in the Bedias Creek bottom and subject to overflow. However, these pastures carry cattle well in spring and summer. Wildlife habitat is enhanced in this area of the ranch. West boundary of the ranch is Mills Road, a county maintained road that connects to SH 75, North of ranch entrance. The ranch home was built in the 1950's, and was updated in the 1980's. The home has appeal but needs updating to current trends. Other ranch improvements consist of 2 sets of working pens, several barns and employee house. Large, productive ready-to-go ranches are becoming hard to find in this area of Texas. Madison County is a very desirable and convenient area with old Texas customs and charm.
