This 960 acre ranch on G. Furr Road in Young County, Texas, presents a rare opportunity to acquire a large-scale, well-maintained cattle operation with established infrastructure and proven production history. Comprised of 320 acres on the north side of the road and 640 acres on the south side, the ranch offers the scale, water resources, and operational improvements serious agricultural investors seek. The property includes approximately 383 acres of productive cropland, with the balance in native and improved grasses. The grasslands are largely open and highly fertile, with intensive brush control practiced for many years to maximize grazing capacity and operational efficiency. Cross-fencing supports rotational grazing, wheat pasture management, and overall cattle performance while promoting responsible land stewardship.

Water is a major asset of this ranch. Rabbit Creek meanders through the interior, creating mature hardwood corridors that enhance habitat for livestock and wildlife. Multiple ponds provide abundant surface water, and hand-dug water wells are located on both the north and south tracts. Rural water is in place with multiple lines running to several water troughs on both sides of the road, reinforcing the ranch's reliability for sustained cattle operations. Electricity is on-site on the north side, supporting current improvements and future expansion.
In addition to its agricultural strengths, the ranch offers several beautiful homesite locations throughout the property. Elevated areas provide expansive views of the surrounding countryside, creek corridors, and productive fields, creating ideal settings for a primary residence or weekend retreat while still maintaining full ranch functionality. The surface water also contributes to the ranch's recreational appeal. Ducks and geese frequent the ponds, the ponds offer fishing opportunities, and wildlife travel the creek corridors where hardwood cover meets productive wheat fields, creating excellent habitat and year-round enjoyment.
Improvements include a barn, implement shed, and storage container on the north tract, along with a barn on the south tract. Livestock working pens are located on both sides of the road near the barns, enabling efficient cattle handling across the entire 960 acres. The seller is also willing to divide the ranch and sell the 320 +/- acre north tract or the 640 +/- acre south tract separately. With its combination of scale, dependable water infrastructure, productive soils, functional improvements, multiple homesite options, and recreational appeal, this property offers immediate income-producing capability along with long-term appreciation potential in a strong agricultural region of Young County.
