Rio Rojo Farms, Caddo Parish, 45 Acres +/-
Description
Property ID: LACADDCA45
Looking for the perfect property to call home? Well, look no further than the Rio Rojo Farms. This property is a true one-of-a-kind property that sits adjacent to the Red River in Belcher, Louisiana. In 1975 the Red River was realigned at this location and created a unique recreational opportunity that not many properties offer. Due to this realignment of the river, there is now an Oxbow to the south and a separate 75-acre privately owned lake to the north. Rio Rojo Farms comes with 45 deeded acres but has riparian access to 106 additional acres including the Oxbow and the 75-acre lake. It also comes with a 1/6 undivided interest in 54 acres that allows for direct access to the Red River and a 40-acre hay/dove field.
The access to the private lake and Oxbow provides some of the best fishing along the Red River. Catfish, white perch, bream and bass are plentiful. In fact, several catfish have been caught in the 40-60 pound range. The Oxbow and private lake are also home to many ducks during parts of the winter months and this provides an excellent duck hunting opportunity. Mallards can be found utilizing the sloughs and shallow water areas from the fall and winter rains.
Being along the Red River provides the opportunity to some of the best whitetail deer hunting around. The river bottom and a plentiful doe herd attract large numbers of traveling bucks during the rut, many in the 200 class. With so many deer passing through this area it can make the hunting season an incredibly special time of the year.
Along with the great outdoor recreational opportunities, a luxurious home sits on the property. The house is 4,606 sq. feet with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. The home is a one of kind beauty with three levels. It is complete with mesquite tongue and grove hardwood floors throughout with stained cypress as the trim. The living area has 32 feet high ceilings with the walls lined with 3/4″ tongue and grove plywood with a stained pine ceiling. Also, in the living area there is a six-foot wide large stone fireplace that is perfect for a fire on those chilly winter nights. The kitchen is immaculate and contains 2 large stainless refrigerators, dishwasher, trash compactor, double electric ovens, gas range and oven, and a large pantry. The countertops are granite with tumbled marble tile with unique fleur-de-lis insert tiles scattered about. The cabinets have a custom antique paint scheme. The laundry room contains both a modern washer and dryer, which remains with the house, a deep stainless-steel sink with a spray faucet, and even has a floor drain in the tile floor. The master bedroom is located upstairs with a large walk-in closet that must be seen to believe.
The house is set up perfectly for outdoor entertainment in an attached 1,000 square foot screened in porch which is equipped with a stainless-steel table, sink and commercial refrigerator. The house has a concrete septic system and a dedicated deep water well. A 1,000-gallon propane tank provides fuel for the house and a fully automatic home generator.
Along with the house, there are currently four outbuildings and a barn with three stalls. Two of the four outbuildings could be converted into sleep quarters if desired. All outbuildings have power. There is also a lighted horse arena located next to the barn.
The property across the street from the main house has its own water well and septic system. It also includes two RV hook-up with both water and sewer.
