The Ohlenbusch Ranch is 457 acres located about 15 miles out of Hamilton, Texas at 2655 FM 2005. The property is best described as a rolling prairie grass ranch dotted with Oak trees with wooded draws. The ranch offers great grazing for livestock, quality fencing and good hunting.
The headquarters sits back off of the road on top of the hill providing a beautiful, tranquil place to enjoy its long distant views, amazing sunsets and star filled skies. The 1,824 sq ft brick ranch house feature a nice country kitchen, living room with wood insert fireplace, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and nice back covered patio with storm cellar. There is a good water well, barns, shop, corral and a rustic wood building that was the office from the Ohlenbusch Cotton Gin, which was moved to the ranch when Earnest and Martha Ohlenbusch closed their Cotton Gin in Brooksmith, TX, in 1951 and bought this ranch. The current owner has used it for hunting and an escape from the city for the last few years.
The ranch has quality fencing, dividing the property into three large pastures and a small trap leading to the headquarters. It supports a good turf of native grasses that have been rested the last two years to allow recovery from drought conditions. The north pasture is moderately wooded with several draws and a live spring that provides a constant source of water. This is a quality native grasses ranch that has historically been used as a cow calf operation running 35-40 animal units. This will make a great homestead for someone looking for a quiet county place to call home.
Directions: From Hamilton take FM 2005 for approximately 15 miles and the property will be on your right. From Goldthwaite take FM 2005 for approximately 15 miles and the property will be on your left.
