| WELCOME TO SQUIRREL CREEK RANCH, A small secluded and very new subdivision in Tangipahoa Parish. This very pretty and pristine subdivision is ideal for country living away from the hectic traffic and congested neighborhoods that is becoming the norm in our fast growing parish. INSTEAD OF PAYING the high price for a lot that measures a tiny fraction of an acre to build the house of your dreams in town, only to find you need an expensive privacy fence to be able to enjoy your tiny slice of noisy heaven....... BRING YOUR FAMILY TO TO LIVE AT THE RANCH! Squirrel Creek Ranch was a working cattle operation with open parklike meadows before it was developed as a residential subdivision. Huge trees, dogwood trees and amazingly tall beautiful magnolias mingle with pine and various hardwood trees, making this subdivision one of the very few that is already a beautiful setting for the new home you desire. (1400 sq ft living area required) As a safety measure, all dogs are to be controlled/fenced on owners property. To preserve the beauty covenants will prevent the clear cutting of any of the lots. Ask for Carolyn Matherne, co-owner, agent. peggysioux@yahoo.com cell 985-974-6982. Properties located 12 mi east of Amite, 12 miles west of Franklinton. (Take Carrier Rd off HWY 16 and go 1/2 mile, turn right to Squirrel Creek Ranch) Access to this developement is NOT a through street, adding to the peacefulness! Subdivision is in the Loranger School District and the # 6 rated fire zone is also a plus! AMITE DOES HAVE SUPER-WALMART........ Act of Sale will be scheduled after completion of the roads. Goal is MAY 1, 2007 |

| The lot above is in the process of being groomed and the road is almost completed All of the pictures displayed in: are onsite pictures taken to give an accurate and honest impression of the property being developed. Many residents wishing to relocate have valid concerns about flooding so we took pictures during December '06 and January '07, during and after some VERY heavy rainfall when the ground was saturated. All of the lots drained well. The only standing water was shallow pools in depressions left by trees downed by the hurricane. As we continue to cleanup the debris, those depressions will be leveled and all of the natural drains will be cleared for continued good drainage. We have completed a beautiful lake at the front of the subdivision which will overflow into a natural drain leading back to Squirrel Creek. Our decision to create a lake here was to take advantage of the natural drain created by years of run-off. We removed the topsoil from this area and placed it on the surrounding lots. We reinforced the banks of the lake with pure clay and the levee is constructed with clay. The lake is designed to better utilise the natural drains for the enjoyment and benefit of the land buyers.This lake does serve 3 of the lots in the subdivision as well as the private home bordering on the east. This lake will be a private part of those 3 lots and will not be for the use of any other lots in the subdivision. The lake was designed to give maximum land use to the land owners and will be 11 feet deep when water reaches the spillway.. We are considering making another lake along that natural drain for the benefit of and a private part of the 4 lots along the west side of Stetson Drive. Again, the design is planned so the landowners will have maximum use of their lots.The overflow from this lake will continue on through the natural drain to Squirrel Creek. By creating lakes along this natural drain we anticipate (and have found in past experience) a positive impact on the way the land continues to drain during heavy rainfalls as well as providing a beautiful area for the residents to have their own private fishing areas. By creating the lakes we also make lawn and landscaping maintainence easier. In the album there are several pictures showing lots still needing cleaned. Most of those pictures are taken on the 4 lots bordering Squirrel Creek. Please visit our website often for all the updates we have planned! |
