Cr 107 Flat Top, TX 79502

Atop the river’s edge with the water flowing 100 feet below, the stillness is overtaken by the faint noise of the ripples across rocks below. The sound of the water becomes more and more noticeable as you stare out across the river valley. With a mile of river, you feel atop of the world from that view. Several spots along the river’s edge give you a phenomenal look at the great Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos River. A landmark for life in the area for centuries; it’s easy to see why both it and the Double Mountains were used as way finders to traverse the countryside.

This property gives you a multitude of experiences with the river running through it, separating the lower area from the higher rugged area. Bisected by the river, the stories of each side are very much different.

The south hosts the fertile farmland framed out by a healthy belt of vegetation; quick access to the river’s edge. The north hosts the elevated bluffs, panoramic views, and rocky outcrops. Both sides play host to an abundance of wildlife and both sides compliment each other as wildlife use both to habitat and roam.

They say seeing is believing and that’s what you experience when you step to the edge of these overlooks, you really get to see something special. Don’t sleep on this river property. Give Dan Byerly a call at (325) 665-3489.

Location: Located in Stonewall County, between Hamlin and Aspermont, this property lies on both sides of the Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos River. The property is a short drive to restaurants, hunting/farming supplies, and more. Only 50 miles to Abilene, 127 miles to Lubbock, 155 miles to Midland, and 199 miles to Fort Worth.

Acreage: Approximately 812± acres, the diversity of the property is separated by the Brazos River. The south 170 acres is mostly cultivation and an easier access to the river. The north 640 acres is the rugged overlooks of the entire river valley and landmarks like the Double Mountains.

Topography: The south end is flat to a gradual slope to the rivers edge. The ground here is productive and the better opportunity at food plots. The north side will rise up 80 to 100 feet off the river and is full of gullies bringing rainfall to the river’s edge. The land rises and falls with higher points and overlooks available throughout. There are several great overlooks along the river and other overlooks on the north end that allow you to fully see the property and the surrounding area.

Rainfall/Elevation: Stonewall County has an average annual rainfall that ranges between 22 and 24 inches. The south side of the property has an elevation that ranges between 1610' and 1670' while the north side ranges between 1610' and 1800'.

Cover: A great combination of cover on this property explains why the wildlife are so abundant. A belt of trees frames our the the area south of the river; over 50 acres are in vegetation out of the 170 acres found on the south side. That belt allows wildlife to roam and bed down close to the river. On this side you will find a variety of trees like Hackberry, China Berry, Cottonwoods, Mesquite, and Juniper along with a variety of plants the wildlife enjoy. The north side is mostly mesquite and Juniper with a some Hackberry, China Berry, and some Willows along areas with spring activity. The big bucks love this side.

Fences: Fences are barbed wire with some being replaced in the last 20 years. Cattle run freely between both sides, so fences are considered proven since they stay in. Some cross fences are in place but serve little use today.

Utilities: There are several electric lines on both sides of the river. Power has been available at the old homestead in the past but is not in use today. Old oil field activity on the north side gives way to some opportunity to connect. No existing meters are in place; however, the area is serviced by Big Country Electric Cooperative. There are no other utilities in place. The buyer or the buyer’s representative should verify utilities.

Water: The Double Mountain Fork of the Brazos River traverses the property for one full mile. The river is currently flowing well and the sounds of the water rippling over the rocks can be heard from overlooks 80' above. An old water windmill can be found in trees on the south side but hasn’t ran in years. The area along the river would be considered a prime location for any new wells as neighbors report well production between 20-100 gallons per minute. A series of natural springs can be found on the north side with water running into pools. This activity would likely increase with the removal of some trees along the banks of those small canyons. A few surface tanks have been dug in the past but are dry at the moment awaiting the next good rain. Buyer or buyer’s representative is responsible for verifying all water.

Hunting: With over 20 years experience on this place hunting, the seller claims this one to be his family’s favorite. Several mount worthy Whitetail bucks have been taken off the place over the years. Home to Rio Grande turkeys, feral hogs, and more. The two sides of the river will give you a variety of experiences to hunt as will the variety of the landscape. It’s hard to beat a good river place come hunting season. You’ll also catch some fish in the river too.

Residence and Improvements: The old homestead is an old rock structure with fireplace and cistern on the back porch. The rock structure has sure lasted but the roof and interior has not. The same can be said about a few of the barns. Some of them can be salvaged or repurposed. The area is still a prime location for a homestead or hunt camp. With the right imagination, maybe you’ll hear some of the old tales told on the front porch.

Minerals: The seller does not own any mineral rights. There is some light oil field activity on the north side and the seller says that the oil company that operates that activity is very good to work with. The seller owns 50% of the wind rights.

Price: The property is priced at $2,437,215.
