07 Windmill Ranchettes CR 329, Jourdanton

Tract 7 is one of the larger Windmill Ranchettes tracts: 13.56 acres of level land a few miles outside Jourdanton, listed at $183,060. That's $13,500 an acre.

Two details matter more than they sound. The tract has its own drive, and the listing shows no easements across it, so nobody else holds a right to cross your land to reach theirs. The soil is described as sandy loam. If you plan a big garden or a small farm, have it tested so you know what you're working with.

There's room for a house, a workshop and ground to grow on. Restrictions are minimal, so read them before you draw up a plan. Groceries, restaurants and healthcare in town are a short drive. James Peterson ALC is the farm and ranch land specialist on this one. Call (210) 740-1295.
