About This Home
Welcome to Nursery River Ranch, an exceptional 863+/- acre property located in the heart of Texas' ranching country just north of Victoria. With over 5,100 feet of frontage along the Guadalupe River and 3,625 feet of frontage along HWY 87, this ranch offers an incredible combination of rich agricultural land, recreational and hunting opportunities along with longterm investment/development potential. As a native of Victoria, I can assure you this is a rare and special offering.
LOCATION
Sitting just 7.5 miles north of Victoria, TX with 3,625 ft of frontage along HWY 87 with 3 entrances the ranch has fantastic accessibility. Only 135 miles from Houston, 110 miles from San Antonio and 120 miles from Austin.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
Two distinct habitats are represented on the Nursery River Ranch: Coastal Prairie and Guadalupe River Bottom. The approximately 518 acres of Coastal Prairie, characterized by native tallgrass prairie species such as Big Bluestem, Little Bluestem, Indiangrass, and Switchgrass, along with other native grasses. Scattered throughout the prairie are native tree species including Live Oak, Mesquite, and Huisache, which add structural diversity to the landscape. In addition to native prairie, there are 40 acres of improved Bermudagrass maintained specifically for hay production, typically yielding over 160 bales per year under standard management practices. On average the ranch supports between 90-100 head of cattle.
The approximately 345 acres of Guadalupe River Bottom is a fertile and ecologically rich riparian corridor defined by a diverse bottomland hardwood forest, with dominant canopy species such as pecan, cedar and American elm, ash, sycamore and cypress. A dense understory of native shrubs, vines, and herbaceous plants contributes to the habitat complexity, while small wetland pockets and seasonal sloughs provide hydrological diversity and excellent hunting opportunities.
WILDLIFE
There are no shortages of wildlife to pursue on the Nursery River Ranch. Whitetail deer are abundant with some nice bucks taken off the river bottom over the years. Rio Grande turkey are prolific along with dove. Quail have been recently spotted but not hunted for many years. Additionally, ducks are common along the river and in the bottoms where water pools. Of course, you will have plenty of hogs to chase along with the standard assortment of varmints.
IMPROVEMENTS
A charming 1,816 sq. ft. 2-bedroom, 1-bath home built in the 1920s sits at the front of the property. Behind the house is a 2,400 sq. ft. barn featuring two large doors perfect for equipment storage and a tack room. Outside, there are covered horse bays attached to the barn and a set of pens for working cattle.
WATER
Over 5,135 feet of Guadalupe River frontage provides picturesque views and ample opportunities for recreation with excellent fishing, hunting, kayaking and swimming. The ranch is on the "high side" of the river with a high bluff for the majority of the frontage but there is an easily accessible sandy beach toward the southern end of the property. Additionally, there are numerous areas ideal for surface water enhancement.
Sitting over the Gulf Coast aquifer there is ample and easily accessible groundwater resources. Currently, there is 1 domestic water well at the headquarters, 3 non-functioning windmills, 1 solar-powered well and 1 electric well to support ranch operations.
