About this property
Goose Lake Ranch is a turnkey recreational property located just 10 minutes outside of Hico, Texas, centered around a stunning 10 acre lake stocked with trophy largemouth bass, catfish, perch, and bluegill. Ducks and geese inhabit the lake year-round, and the surrounding habitat supports whitetail deer, Rio Grande turkey, feral hogs, bobcats, and a wide variety of native bird species. With no hunting pressure on the ranch, wildlife is abundant and visible throughout the day. The land features a mature mix of live oaks, burr oaks, cedar elms, sycamores, pecans, red oaks, and willows, providing outstanding habitat diversity and natural beauty. A decorative pond just off the back porch draws deer, ducks, and geese directly into the backyard. Improvements include a well-maintained 2,492 sq ft home with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an open-concept layout with large windows overlooking the lake and wildlife. A large shop with a pizza oven sits adjacent to the main home. Conveniently located approximately 2 hours from Austin, 1 hour 45 minutes from Dallas, and 1 hour 15 minutes from Fort Worth. Properties with lake acreage of this caliber are rarely found at this price point. Goose Lake Ranch is an exceptional opportunity for fishing, hunting, waterfowl, or full-time country living.

About the Area
1618 County Road 2480 None is located in Iredell, Texas, in Bosque County. Bosque County sits at the northern edge of the Hill Country transition, a quiet agricultural county centered on Meridian that has remained largely outside the development wave transforming counties to the south. The county offers rolling cedar and oak terrain, working cattle ranches, and Dinosaur Valley State Park, where actual dinosaur tracks are preserved in the bed of the Paluxy River.
The Bosque River flows through the county, and the Paluxy River along the eastern boundary preserves some of the best-documented dinosaur trackways in the world at Dinosaur Valley State Park. The terrain features limestone hills, cedar brakes, and open grasslands transitioning to the Grand Prairie to the north.
Iredell had an estimated population of 398 as of 2023. The 76457 zip code has a median household income of $64,063, a median home value of $217,500, and a median age of 43.3. The average household size is 2.59 people.
Cattle ranching, agriculture, hunting leases, and tourism anchored by Dinosaur Valley State Park define Bosque County's economy. The county attracts buyers seeking affordable large acreage tracts in a less-pressured market than the core Hill Country counties.
