Description
Rancho Zayas 503 Acres - Willacy Co. Nestled within one of the most tightly held regions in Texas, Rancho Zayas is a premier South Texas hunting and recreational ranch. Owned by the same family for more than 30 years, this 503 acre, high-fenced property offers exceptional wildlife habitat and a rare blend of privacy, accessibility, and heritage. Heavily wooded and rich in native South Texas brush, the ranch supports abundant populations of whitetail deer, nilgai, and other native game, making it a true hunter's paradise. A 4 acre artesian-fed lake located near the center of the property, along with additional natural water features, attracts an impressive variety of migratory and native birds for which the region is well known. Rancho Zayas features approximately 1.3 miles of frontage along County Road 2100 (Zinnia Road), a county-maintained caliche road, with four gated access points providing excellent ingress and egress. The ranch is rectangular in shape, allowing for efficient management and future improvements. Its location-just 11 miles east of Lyford, midway between Santa Monica and Willamar, less than 15 miles north of Harlingen International Airport and less than 20 miles from Port Mansfield-offers outstanding convenience while maintaining seclusion. Harlingen is within a 20-minute drive. A North Alamo Water Supply Corporation line runs along the CR 2100 frontage and services an abandoned hunting camp within the ranch. Electricity is on site, and an artesian well flows directly into the central lake, providing a reliable water source. Improvements include a 20' x 40' shed and a 20' x 25' barn with concrete slab and cinder block walls. The ranch is fully enclosed by an 8-foot net wire high fence, constructed with T-posts and wood line posts. A transmission line crosses the property from north to south along the western boundary. On the eastern portion of the ranch, several existing oil and gas wells are present; access by the operator is restricted to a designated entrance and road along the eastern boundary. Predominant soils include Lozano Fine Sandy Loam and Willamar Fine Sandy Loam, well suited for native vegetation and wildlife habitat. The ranch enjoys extremely low carrying costs, with 2024 property taxes of approximately $1,331.34. Rancho Zayas is bordered to the north by the renowned 70,000 acre Pinnell Ranch, further enhancing its value, privacy, and wildlife quality. Offered as a pristine blank slate, this exceptional South Texas ranch is ready for the next owner's vision-whether as a premier hunting retreat, recreational ranch, or long-term legacy investment.
