EL Rancho Del Torro in Northern Duval County is a private ranch that offers a strong sense of solitude, perfect for anyone who wants to unwind and escape the hustle and bustle. If you're dreaming of a hunting ranch, a weekend escape, a spot to raise livestock, or a place to create and savor South Texas tranquility, this 157.29-acre property offers the room and privacy you need. This unrestricted ranch is a blank canvas for your dreams, with utilities already in place, including electric service and a water well. This ranch features typical South Texas brush, with mesquite trees and other native plants. It offers a nice landscape with a few high spots on the ranch, giving you views for miles. The brush provides abundant shelter for local wildlife, including whitetail deer, wild hogs, doves, quail, coyotes, bobcats, and Rio Grande wild turkeys. This ranch has not been actively hunted in over eight years. Picture a spot tucked away in the middle of nowhere, yet still super convenient for grabbing a bite or picking up essentials. For instance, you're just 8 miles away from the DG Market, 9 miles from Dairy Queen, 9.2 miles from Lowe's Market in San Diego, Texas, and only 19 miles from H.E.B., 21 miles from Walmart, and 22 miles from Tractor Supply Company in Alice, Texas. The seller recently had Nueces Electric Cooperative (NEC) install a 200-amp electric service and a meter, along with two dusk-to-dawn lights. This installation powers the water well and lights up the recreational area at night. The ranch includes a newly updated water well, complete with a new submersible pump, pressure tank, piping, and wiring. The water well provides a reliable supply of water suitable for domestic use, irrigation, and wildlife. The seller cleared out the old earth pond, expanded it, and installed poly pipe from the water well to create a well-fed pond for wildlife and livestock. The ranch is completely free of active pipelines, oil activity, or pad sites, making it a pristine, undisturbed piece of land that gives you peace of mind. Finding a ranch with no oil activity in South Texas these days is rare. The ranch features a charming old barn, cattle pens, a rustic brick wood-burning oven, a target range, and a large pila, previously used as a swimming hole. The land is fully fenced, with low fencing on all sides except for about 250 feet of high fence on the east side of the ranch. As for taxes, 102 acres are under an Ag exemption, totaling $268 a year, and the remaining 55 acres lost their exemption a few years back, so taxes on the 55 acres are $2,732 a year (which the buyer can reapply for). So total taxes for the whole ranch are around $3,000 a year, or $250 a month.
