The Loving Ranch is a well-positioned 106-acre tract in Refugio County offering the combination of recreational and ag use with access that makes a smaller acreage ranch especially appealing. Located along Old Goliad Road, the property offers road frontage with a quick drive to Refugio or Goliad. The ranch is currently utilized for cattle production and carries an agricultural tax valuation. A perimeter fence surrounds the acreage, while an existing equipment barn provides useful infrastructure for ranch operations, equipment storage, or continued agricultural use. The property also has an abundance of wildlife including white-tailed deer, turkeys, dove, and more. The water is a major asset on the property. The existing well is approximately 180 feet deep and produces an estimated 35 gallons per minute with a 1 HP pump. Electricity is also available through AEP via an existing utility easement. The property does not currently have a residence, giving the next owner the opportunity to improve the ranch around their own needs. Whether continued as a working cattle property, developed as a rural homesite, or held as an investment, the fundamentals are already in place. The Loving Ranch is the type of acreage that offers flexibility without sacrificing the practical features that matter on a ranch with good access, water well, fencing, utilities, and existing improvements. At 106 acres, it is a manageable size while still providing room to build, operate, and make the property your own.
Situated on 4 wooded acres, this 2025 manufactured home offers 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with plenty of space to enjoy country living. The property is fully fenced with a gated entrance, providing added privacy and security. A 40-foot shipping container is also included, offering convenient additional storage. With mature trees, acreage, and a newer home, this property offers a great combination of space, privacy, and functionality just outside of Refugio.
