Overview
The J E H Ranch is a working cattle ranch encompassing approximately 2864 acres, situated 5 miles north of Lakeland, Florida. The property features around 1000 acres of improved pastures suitable for grazing and hay production, complemented by over 1800 acres of native land. This ranch serves as a habitat for whitetail deer, wild Osceola turkeys, and various other wildlife species indigenous to West Central Florida. While the offering excludes buildings, it includes a small set of cattle working pens. Several large diameter deep water wells are located around the improved pastures. A perpetual conservation easement is in place, restricting intense development but allowing for a total of 9 homesites, each with a minimum acreage of 100 acres. The ranch benefits from approximately one half mile of frontage on Rock Ridge Road, a paved collector road maintained by Polk County. Historically, the ranch has been utilized for cattle production, timber production, sod-seed production, and watermelon farming. The conservation easement permits these historic uses indefinitely, with the exception of row crop production. Additionally, the easement allows for the conversion of up to 200 acres of native range into improved pastures, if desired. This ranch represents one of the few remaining large tracts in private ownership within this region of West Central Florida.
