Wilson Ranch - Fayette County, West Point, TX
Wilson Ranch - Fayette County, West Point, TX
The Wilson Ranch is a stunning property, conveniently located just an hour from Austin and about 75 minutes from Houston. Tucked away off a private road, only a handful of neighbors have access to it, and the electric gate stays locked for privacy and security.
As you enter through the main gate, it’s a quick drive to the custom built home with a covered front porch that overlooks a lake just down the hill. The lake is full of fish, and the standing timber adds a unique touch, making it a great spot for waterfowl. What really sets this place apart are the dramatic elevation changes, ranging from 410 feet down to 330 feet—it’s a sight to see.
Around the house, you’ll find well-kept grasses and plenty of trees. There’s also a solid network of roads that run throughout the ranch, giving you easy access to hunting blinds and feeders. White-tailed deer are everywhere, and there are plenty of game trails made by deer, hogs, and other wildlife. If you’re into dove hunting, there are several small fields filled with native grasses that are perfect for that. And here’s something special—the land is packed with petrified wood, which is pretty rare to come by.
