About This Home

Located in Bell County near the upper end of Lake Belton, Wildlife Ridge is a 61.9+- acre property that offers a combination of residential improvements, recreational opportunities, and wildlife habitat. The property includes a custom Austin stone home, a large shop with utilities, and access to the Leon River through adjacent Corps of Engineers land.

A 40x50 shop on a concrete slab is located near the home and is equipped with electricity and a rainwater collection system. The combination of residential and utility improvements supports a variety of uses including agricultural operations, outdoor recreation, or rural living. The acreage includes a mix of open areas and wooded cover that create habitat for native wildlife. Deer, turkey, raccoons, and hogs are commonly observed on the property. A wildlife tax exemption keeps the property taxes at a very reasonable rate. The terrain supports hunting and outdoor recreational activities while also offering areas suitable for trail riding, hiking, or wildlife observation. One of the notable features of the property is access to the Leon River through neighboring Corps of Engineers land. This access provides additional opportunities for fishing, kayaking, and exploring the river corridor. Buyers should independently verify access rights and permitted uses with the appropriate authorities. The property is located approximately: 8 miles from Moody, 20 miles from Temple, 24 miles from Belton, 28 miles from Waco and 70 miles from Austin.
