Details

Acreage:

This ranch is approximately 404 acres. Current owners have diligently worked to remove prickly pear to maximize grass production. A portion of the property is in cultivation with the vast majority being in grassland and pasture.

Topography:

Much of the open area on the property feels to have a nice gentle roll with a noticeable funnel-like slope. There are some wooded areas that have distinct changes in elevation and this is where your views of the area are optimal. Like the top of an hourglass, water sheds across the property and fills its many earthen tanks (ten to be exact) along the way while making its way to the channel that pours the excess water into the lake next door. The mesas in the area work as a natural frame around the property.

Rainfall and Elevation:

The county experiences an average annual rainfall of 25 inches.

Cover:

The overall cover for the property is great. There are several wooded areas with manicured pastures connecting all. The wildlife have plenty of cover within the trees and amongst the tall grasses in between.

Fences:

The fences are 5 & 6 wire barbed fences all built within the last four years. The gates, corners, cross fences, cattle guards and livestock pens are all new and done right.

Utilities:

Electricity is plentiful with three phase electricity recently installed to better serve some onsite facility demands. Propane tanks are owned but serviced by reputable provider.

Water:

Featuring ten stock tanks tiered to optimize runoff, of which some are stocked, these tanks are deep and holding well. Several natural springs can be found feeding a couple of the lower tanks; otherwise, all the tanks catch rain runoff. The cooperative water line supplies, the facilities and the home.

Hunting:

With its abundant wildlife, including Whitetail deer, dove, and waterfowl, the ranch doubles as a haven for outdoor activities like hunting or wildlife observation, enhancing its appeal as a corporate retreat. This turnkey property seamlessly blends luxury, functionality, and sustainability, offering a unique venue to foster innovation, collaboration, and rejuvenation.

Residence and Improvements:

Equestrian facilities include new stables and arenas, ideal for leadership retreats with horseback riding or outdoor challenges. The ranch features state-of-the-art cattle working and sorting facilities, designed for efficient handling of a premium Wagyu cattle herd, utilizing Arrowquip equipment with low-stress hydraulic squeeze chutes, adjustable head gates, crowding tubs, and portable systems to streamline operations before shipping to off-site processing. The herd grazes on lush pastures enclosed by new 6-strand barbed wire fencing for security and containment. A dedicated equipment barn houses like-new machinery, perfect for agricultural demos or sustainability workshops. The property also offers a vertically integrated restaurant opportunity, enabling a bespoke dining experience sourced directly from the ranch’s Wagyu beef—ideal for hosting client events or employee incentives.

Mineral Rights:

The seller is willing to convey a portion of the mineral rights and executive leasing authority with an acceptable offer. Although plenty of oil wells have been drilled in the area, this property remains untouched simply to keep the property as private as possible. Buyer or Buyer's representative is responsible for verifying all mineral information.

Price:

This legacy property is listed at $10,000,000.
