Patten Springs Ranch is a rare large acreage offering in Central Texas, defined by exceptional water, diverse native habitat, and one of the most impressive spring-fed lakes currently on the market. Located in Aquilla, Texas, the ranch spans 843 acres and features a stunning 13-acre crystal-clear spring-fed lake, an additional 5-acre lake, and 10 stock tanks, providing outstanding water distribution across the property. The land offers a balanced mix of open pasture, rolling terrain, and mature hardwood cover, making it ideal for family recreation, hunting and fishing, cattle operations, and long term land investment. Wildlife is abundant throughout the ranch, including whitetail deer, feral pigs, Rio Grande turkey, dove, and waterfowl, with ducks and geese heavily utilizing the lakes and ponds. A unique feature of the property is the presence of river otters in the main lake, a rare sight in Texas and a strong indicator of a healthy ecosystem. The ranch is exceptionally well watered with multiple springs, spring fed surface water, and consistent flow rarely found on a property of this size in Central Texas. Patten Springs Ranch is conveniently located just 25 minutes from Waco, approximately one hour and fourteen minutes to DFW, two hours to Austin, and roughly three hours to Houston and San Antonio, offering excellent accessibility while still providing privacy and seclusion. Oncor is the electric provider in the area, and the property features approximately 7,700 feet of frontage on FM 933 and 5,500 feet of frontage on Patton Lake Road.
