Situated on G. Furr Road in Young County, Texas, this 640-acre ranch represents a strong standalone cattle property with a thoughtful blend of production, water, usability, and year-round recreational appeal. The ranch is well balanced, offering approximately 187 acres of cultivation complemented by established native and improved grasses. The grass pasture is open, clean, and highly productive, reflecting years of consistent brush management and stewardship. Cross-fencing divides the ranch into practical grazing units, enabling efficient livestock rotation and seasonal utilization of wheat pasture. In addition to its agricultural strengths, the property provides excellent wildlife habitat and outdoor enjoyment, with open pastureland, cultivated fields, and natural water features creating an attractive environment for hunting, fishing, and observing native wildlife.
Reliable water distrib...
Reliable water distribution strengthens the ranch's operational capacity. Rabbit Creek winds through the property, lined with mature hardwoods that provide shade, shelter, and natural travel corridors for wildlife. Multiple ponds are strategically positioned across the ranch, and an older hand-dug well remains in place. There is a rural water meter on the west fenceline, with lines serving several troughs, supporting dependable livestock watering across the acreage. Electricity is located nearby, offering convenient access for improvements or future development.
Beyond its cattle functionality, the ranch also provides exceptional building sites. Gently elevated areas overlook the creek bottoms and cultivated fields, delivering long-range views and privacy while remaining central to ranch operations. Whether for a full-time residence or a weekend headquarters, the setting combines practicality with scenic appeal.
Recreation further enhances the property's value. The ponds attract resident waterfowl, and fishing opportunities are available, while whitetail deer and other native wildlife move naturally through the hardwood-lined creek corridors. A barn and livestock working pens support day-to-day operations, rounding out a ranch that is both income-producing and enjoyable. With productive soils, established infrastructure, dependable water, and attractive homesite potential, this 640-acre offering stands as a well-rounded investment in a proven ranching area of Young County.
