Property Description
Location
Purtis Creek Ranch is ideally situated in East Texas, offering peaceful seclusion while remaining
conveniently close to town. The property is just 12 miles from Eustace, 15 miles from Canton,
and 19 miles from Athens, each offering shopping, dining, and local events. Best of all, the ranch
is only about an hour from Dallas, making it an easy weekend retreat or even a full-time
residence for those looking to escape the city without going off the grid.
The Land
Encompassing approximately 115+/- acres, the ranch features a balanced blend of open
pastureland and mature hardwoods, creating prime habitat for both livestock and wildlife. The
productive pastures yield up to approximately 150 +/- round bales of hay per cutting, while the
diverse landscape supports deer, hogs, and even the occasional flock of ducks. The mixture of
hardwood cover and open fields provides excellent conditions for deer hunting, offering natural
bedding areas, food sources, and clear sight-lines. The land is also well-suited for recreational
activities such as horseback or ATV riding, giving owners the chance to explore and enjoy the
property with ease. The open pastures are easy to traverse and allow for convenient access
throughout the ranch.
The Water
The original pond, estimated at around 10 feet deep, is a centerpiece of the property and has
been professionally stocked and managed by Lochow Ranch Pond & Lake Management. It holds
large bass, along with an abundance of crappie and catfish, making it a diverse and exciting
fishery right outside the front door. A strong forage base of bluegill, red ear sunfish, and golden
shiners supports long-term health, while a fish feeder keeps activity high for year-round angling.
The house pond, also estimated at about 10 feet deep, has likewise been managed for quality
fishing. Stocked with the same forage base as the original pond, it ensures a balanced fishery
and plenty of opportunities to land strong bass. Together, these waters offer a unique
recreational setup, providing multiple fishing options and enhancing the property’s appeal as
both a retreat and a well-managed habitat. The covered dock and thriving ecosystem provide a
serene setting located a stone’s throw from the back porch.
The House
The main home is a comfortable and well-maintained 2800 sqft 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom
residence, recently updated with fresh paint and refinished floors just two years ago. The layout
includes 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom upstairs, along with a spacious game room or second living
area. Downstairs features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with two closets in each bedroom. A
private pool and expansive patio located just off the wrap around porch offers the perfect place
to relax and cool off during warmer months. A two-car covered parking area adds practicality
and additional storage space. The home’s water is supplied by a well that draws from the same
aquifer that Ozarka Water used to use for their bottling, providing a clean and reliable water
source.
Other Improvements
The ranch boasts an exceptional collection of improvements that combine practicality,
recreation, and rustic charm. Overlooking the pond, a covered dock invites quiet mornings with
a fishing pole or peaceful evenings watching the sunset. The 4-stall horse barn, complete with a
tack room and workshop, is perfectly suited for equestrian pursuits or versatile storage, while a
built-in chicken coop adds the charm—and reward—of fresh, farm-raised eggs. A flourishing
garden and orchard of 20 fruit trees, including apple, avocado, and peach, offer seasonal
abundance right outside your door. For fun and adventure, a tree house stands ready to delight
children and grandchildren alike, and a private shooting range provides a dedicated space for
target practice. Two hog traps and a corn feeder are also included, supporting effective land and
wildlife management, ensuring the property remains as functional as it is inviting.
