With 3,850 feet of San Saba River frontage, Peg Leg Farm, located in Menard County, offers the productivity of plentiful water in an arid climate. The river bottom, easily accessible by vehicle, is home to majestic pecan trees while the flat, open farm features scattered live oaks and bull mesquite.
Two pivots, one that supports 25 acres of Tifton Bermudagrass, and the other that waters 150 acres of Coastal Bermudagrass, draw from the 120-acre feet of San Saba River water rights that will convey with the farm. The river also feeds a small stock pond. Accessible, plentiful water attracts white-tailed deer and other native wildlife to the low-fenced property.
The 298.72-acre hay and livestock operation fronts Turkey Barn Road about 25 minutes east of Menard. In addition to the pivots, the farm includes a set of well-designed, pipe livestock working pens with a loading chute constructed to accommodate a double-decker livestock semi-truck. The working pens are also outfitted with 30 x 40 horse stalls.
A 50 x 80 metal barn with an apartment and a partial concrete floor in the shop area, a 60 x 50 metal hay barn and 20 x 40 horse stalls located on the round pen, complete the farm infrastructure.
One domestic well services the barn, the pens and the nearby house. The 3-bedroom/2-bath house features 3 fireplaces. The ranch-style house, which has good bones, needs updating to become a dream home worthy of anchoring this productive farm.
Peg Leg Farm offers a great opportunity to capitalize on the lands natural productivity.
