Description

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:
The RD is 210 +/- acres working livestock ranch located in Val Verde County just outside of Del Rio, Texas.  The ranch is subdivided into four pastures with one solar powered water well that feeds four troughs and one small stock tank. In addition to a great agricultural and recreational ranch, it has strong development potential for renewable energy projects such as solar, battery and data center storage.  An overhead 138 kv transmission line runs through the center and along the entire west boundary of the ranch with an AEP Substation located approximately one miles due south.  There is currently a battery storage facility adjacent to the substation with increasing interest nationwide in these projects.  Subdivision or smaller-tract development is another opportunity. This ranch has unlimited potential!  Below the ranch sits one of the best aquafers found in Texas, the Edwards-Trinity, capable of producing hundreds of gallons or more per minute.

LOCATION AND ACCESS:
This 210 +/- acre ranch has great access off Lausen Road via Hwy 90 on the west side of Del Rio.  Additionally, US Hwy 90 West is less than 2 miles from the ranch where you will find a Walmart superstore, Rudy’s BBQ, Starbucks, Chilis Grill and Bar, Planet Fitness, Hotels, shopping centers, fast food, gas and service stations and much more.   And it is less than 10 miles from beautiful Lake Amistad and Mexico!  Del Rio International Airport is only five miles away and serves several national carriers.  On clear days you have amazing views of the Serranias del Burro mountains in Mexico.

HABITAT:
The RD Ranch has excellent native southwest Texas brush including mesquite, prickly pear, granjeno, cenizo, huisache, condalia, and many others.  There are also great stands of native grasses as well as Kleingrass that’s taken root in many areas. The brush and grasses provide excellent forage and cover for wildlife.

WILDLIFE:
The ranch is currently under a 1-d-1 agricultural use designation with good soil and available ground water. Native brush and grasses provide good browse and cover for deer, an occasional axis deer, turkey, mourning doves, white-winged doves, Bobwhite and Scaled (Blue) quail.  

FUTURE/POTENTIAL USE:
This ranch has many potential uses including agriculture, recreational, home site development, ranchette investment, industrial park, solar farm, golf course, rod and gun club, horse stables and trails, birding sanctuary, base material yard and more. Less than 10% of the property is in a FEMA Floodplain along San Felipe Creek.  An overhead 138 kv transmission line runs along the entire west boundary of the ranch.  Future use may be subject to and contingent upon the rules and regulations of the City of Del Rio and Val Verde County. The property may be located within the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the city and possibly subject to rules pertaining to that area.
