3407 Fm 743 Kenedy, TX 78119

The Smith Ranch offers a rare opportunity to own 148.68± acres of versatile South Texas land just southeast of Kenedy in Karnes County. This turnkey property is ideal for cattle ranching, recreational use, or future residential development. Featuring gently rolling terrain, a mix of strong Coastal Bermuda and native grasses, scattered mature mesquites and hardwoods, and a wet weather draw, the ranch is both productive and scenic. It has been leased for over 30 years for cattle grazing and hay production, and the draw presents excellent potential for building a large stock tank or several smaller ones.

Improvements include a 1930s 1 bed/1 bath brick home, two older barns, a water well, livestock troughs, and functional pipe working pens, all set up for rotational grazing with perimeter and cross fencing in place. The house is currently rented by a long-term tenant, providing consistent income and property upkeep. Electricity is available with multiple meters onsite and single-phase service, while three-phase power runs FM 743 and County Road 139, which border the property with approximately 2,170 feet and 2,000 feet of frontage, respectively.

In addition to its agricultural value, the ranch supports whitetail deer, hogs, dove, and other native wildlife, making it a solid option for hunting and outdoor recreation. Located just 4 miles from Kenedy and within reasonable driving distance to San Antonio, Corpus Christi, Austin, and Houston, this is an accessible and strategically positioned property. Whether you're looking to expand your ranching operation, build a weekend retreat, or make a long-term investment in South Texas land, the Smith Ranch offers the infrastructure, location, and potential to meet a variety of goals. Surface sale only.
