The historic rock home is of pipe construction and stone that was hauled in from the famous Swenson Ranch, showcasing amazing petrified wood and fossils embedded in the stonework. It features a two-tier flower box integrated into the rock siding, topped with a large picture window. The home has undergone a complete remodel in the last couple of years, transforming it into a charming country retreat. It now boasts new wood floors and ceilings, windows, kitchen countertops, backsplash, fixtures, and fresh paint throughout. A beautiful wooden covered front porch and a covered backyard deck have been added, and the open floor plan connects the kitchen, dining area, and living room seamlessly. A rugged rock fireplace, two deer antler chandeliers, a stunning juniper wood bar, and a backyard deck chandelier enhance the home's rustic character. Down the hallway are two generously sized bedrooms, a bathroom, and additional storage space at the end of the hall. The large laundry room has plenty of storage space, and the attached garage with a storage room could easily be converted into an additional bedroom and bathroom. With this home's sturdy pipe construction, the nine-year-old metal roof further enhances the home's weather safety. As an additional benefit, some of the beautiful furnishings in the house can be purchased for a mutually agreed-upon price, making this property move-in ready.

To the north of the house is a 30x80 metal barn with several built-in stalls and a tack room equipped with an air conditioning window unit and sink. The barn also includes large doors on the south and east sides, allowing vehicles and equipment to access it easily. A set of pipe-built livestock pens are also attached to the barn. Two small tractors on the property can be purchased from the seller that would meet your needs for this acreage.

This 25.2 +/- acre property appeals to wildlife enthusiasts as well as horse and livestock owners, either as a weekend retreat or a permanent residence. The entire acreage is moderately wooded with native grass, creating an ideal environment for wildlife. The five-strand barbed wire fences are in excellent shape, some brand new, but the entire perimeter is good and tight. Deer and turkey are abundant throughout the property and around the house.

Throckmorton is a wonderful community for a weekend retreat or anyone considering a move to a quiet, small town. Murray Homestead would be the perfect place to settle down, offering country living only minutes away from town. Throckmorton Collegiate ISD features a brand new school that enables students to earn an Associate Degree upon graduation. The town features a variety of amazing shops to meet all your needs, along with numerous dining options and a County Clinic and Hospital. It is located about an hour from Wichita Falls and Abilene and two hours from Fort Worth. Friendly neighbors are eager to welcome you to this delightful community.
