North Texas Ranch Paradise Incredible Ranch House & Land Near Dallas, Texas Beautiful Home Set on 66.7 Acres ~ Sells Completely Furnished! Luxury Rural Living – Less Than 1 Hour from Dallas! Offered for sale is a one-of-a-kind exclusive property in Anna, Texas. Tejas Ranch is a beautiful and remarkable property consisting of an incredible ranch home, guest house on 66.7 acres less than an hour from Dallas, Texas. The main house, pool, guest house and pond sit on 10 acres that run from Wild Rose Lane to the Sister Grove Creek. The main house and guest house offer over 6,400 sq. ft. of living area.There is an adjoining 10 acre tract south of the main house with a homesite, barn/office and stocked, trophy bass pond. Both 10 acre tracts are connected by a flower covered/canopy steel bridge to a 3rd tract containing 46.7 acres. This tract can be easily accessed by the steel bridge connecting the property from the front two tracts or by a paved road at the east side of the property. The property would make the perfect retreat home for the busy executive and family to escape the stress of the city, but close enough to Dallas to make an easy commute to work or for shopping. No expense was spared in the construction of this home or the improvements made to the surrounding property. Live running water, 3 ponds, tons of trees, improved pastures and an incredible ranch home make this property a must see! Fully Furnished: This house sells completely furnished and includes high-end custom furniture and accessories throughout the house and guest house. The only thing not selling are personal items owned by the sellers such as family photographs, clothing, etc. The full list of furnishings and equipment can be downloaded from the ranch website at www.tejasranchtx.com. Ranch Maintenance Equipment: All the equipment to maintain the ranch is included as well...items such a Bobcat Toolcat front end loader (35K new). The shop is complete with tools, chain saws, generators and everything necessary to full maintain this beautiful place. The shop alone with top of the line Whirlpool Gladiator wall grid system, cabinets, workbenches, stocked full of every tool imaginable, cost over $40K. Exotic Game: Exotic games animals also sell with the property including Zebra, Elk, Wildebeast, Water Buffalo, Oryx, Antelope and more. The current owner has an agricultural exemption on the property (except for 1 acre right around the main house). With this game or other livestock the buyer could most likely receive the same exemption, which would result in a large savings on property taxes. Staff: There are currently two ranchhands and one housekeeper that live on the ranch. This staff would be willing to stay if the new owner wanted them. They are very familiar with the ranch and keep it in impeccable condition. Total cost for these 3 employees would be approximately $3000/month (total monthly cost for all 3).Current Ongoing Improvements: Even though we are selling this incredible property the owners continues to make improvements. Currently they are replacing all the hardwood floors in the main home downstairs. There is a company in Maine that takes barnwood from actual old barns and turns the wood into the most incredible wood floors you have ever seen. This floor will be completely installed within the next 4-6 weeks at a total cost of over $60,000. Next, all the stone in the main home entryway, den and front office/gameroom is being replaced with a beautiful new cut limestone - a new style - incredible to look at and expensive - about $40,000 for this renovation. Please note there was nothing wrong with the floors or the existing stone - the seller's philosophy is if they are going to live there (even if it's just until they sell it) they will continue to make improvements like they plan to live there forever. Next, there was a small fire in the maid quarters/barn a while back. This created an opportunity to completely renovate this barn with cedar walls, new flooring, built-in furniture, etc. We will post photos of these improvements as soon as they are completed. A great place to live is also a great investment opportunity! Tejas Ranch is located in Collin County. Collin County is one of the fastest growing counties in Texas and is experiencing tremendous growth, so this property will continue to appreciate at a rapid rate. Additionally, to accomodate the incredible growth in this sector, there is a proposed Collin County Outer Loop, which is a major thoroughfare that will connect the north end of the Dallas North Tollway to 75; and then on to Hwy 380, and then to the Rockwall County line. This proposed loop will run within 2 miles of this property, which could increase the value of this property considerably. We can email you a copy of the proposed location of this loop or you can visit the Collin County website for more information. The 46.7 acres would provide potential commercial development possibilities. The 47 acre tract with 121 frontage that is just to the south of the Tejas Ranch 46.7 acre tract is currently on the market for $40,000/per acre for raw unimproved land and all property in this rapidly growing part of North Texas will just continue to appreciate.
