Located just north of Columbus and next door to the Big Easy Ranch is the Black Gold Ranch. It is a beautiful property with towering oaks, a large fishing lake, and a great high-fenced hunting property. The property includes immaculate improvements, including a main home on a hill overlooking the lake, a guest house, and a lake house. A large, enclosed storage barn with A/C, buried electric lines (including 3-phase power), and a back gate that leads to the Big Easy makes this unique and very private property highly desirable and almost impossible to duplicate.
Main House: Built in 2014, this 5,467 SF magnificent home is a four-bedroom house with amazing attributes that create a fantastic experience. Decorated tastefully throughout with fine furniture and top-end appliances. A spacious master bedroom is found downstairs with an expansive bathroom that includes a large walk-in closet, and both tub and shower. The master bedroom also has its own fireplace at the foot of the bed, with great views overlooking the lake. A study is found just outside of the master suite. Upstairs are three guest rooms with full bathrooms and plenty of closet space. Downstairs there is the great room with a den/kitchen with a fireplace and breakfast room. A large theater room, utility room, mudroom, foyer, a living room with fireplace, and inside access to the two-bay garage. Gas is provided by a buried 500-gallon propane tank that fuels the kitchen cooktop and outdoor grill. Just outside the kitchen/den area is a large enclosed and air-conditioned patio with a full outdoor style kitchen, fireplace, huge television, and expansive glass walls for outdoor views of the lake and swimming pool.
Other Improvements: The guest house is a short walk from the main house and provides an additional two-bedroom, two-bath home with a kitchen, den, and fireplace. Down the hill, nestled by the lake in a large stand of oaks and elms, is the third home, which includes two full bedroom/bath combinations. It also includes a large open den and kitchen and was designed as a game room for large gatherings or sending the kids down to enjoy the afternoons playing games and watching football. In the back of the property is a 6,000 SF building that has 4,200 SF enclosed and air-conditioned for storage.
An eight-acre (8) lake is below the main home and is well stocked with trophy bass and catfish. The lake is maintained by an irrigation well, which allows water levels to be controlled. The ranch is high-fenced and includes genetically superior whitetail deer and several exotic species. The lake on the property attracts ducks in the winter and a surprising number of quail and pheasants.
Groundwater here is plentiful two water wells lie on the property. From your private ranch, you have easy and direct access to one of the top 18-hole golf courses in the state, a large clubhouse with outstanding food and amenities.
