Description Whispering Waters Ranch provides an array of opportunities for buyers seeking scenic potential homesites, unique terrain, and that always highly sought after water frontage. Honey Creek borders and fronts along each available tract as it meanders its way through the original ranch. Electric utility service lines are already in place on much of the property and private entry access points will be made available in accordance with entrance regulations of Hamilton County, Texas.

Water Honey Creek, a well-known rock bottom clear water creek and major tributary of the Bosque River in the area, meanders through this portion of the original ranch for approximately 8/10th of a mile. Per the map, each individual tract has varying amounts of Honey Creek frontage and multiple tracts may be combined and purchased if additional acreage and creek frontage are desired. Underground water in the area is excellent as the property sits over the prolific Trinity Aquifer, where water wells should be easily attainable to provide water to improvements and fresh water troughs for livestock and/or wildlife.

Terrain There is approximately 80+/- feet of elevation change across this portion of the original ranch with higher elevated portions being on either side of Honey Creek and offering views back toward the creek valley as it carves its ways through the landscape. Overall the property and tracts are moderately to heavily wooded, with some clearing and under brushing already having been done on the tracts that front along CR 207. Hardwood tree coverage consists of live oak, post oak, spanish oak, pecan, elm, and hackberry, with cedar/juniper, mesquite, elbowbush, bumelia, sumac, and a variety of other brush species. There are some portion of creek bottom pasture offering grazing for livestock and prime locations for establishing wildlife food plots. All culminating to create a beautiful landscape, with scenic ridgelines, rough draws, and good fertile bottom land.

Wildlife & Hunting The property is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including deer, turkey, dove, duck, hog, bobcat, fox, coyotes, squirrel, raccoon, possum, and a multitude of song birds. The abundant tree cover along and reliable water source provided by Honey Creek make this area a well-travelled corridor for wildlife.

Fencing & Roads Perimeter fencing ranges from excellent to fair, with some high fencing along the south and east sides of the property. Interior tract lines are currently unfenced, subject to a survey, and will need to be fenced as a requirement of a purchase contract unless multiple tracts are assembled, whereby proposed interior lines would not need to be fenced. It is believed that each individual tract meets the frontage requirements of Hamilton County, Texas, necessary to be approved and create private and/or shared access along CR 207 and CR 208. All current interior roads and trails are unimproved.
