Established in 1856, Younger Ranch represents a rare opportunity to acquire 265.82 acres of North Texas land rooted in nearly 170 years of Younger family history.
Just one hour northwest of Fort Worth, the ranch offers a combination of rolling pasture, mature post oak hardwoods, seasonal Turkey Creek frontage, and the kind of privacy that has become increasingly difficult to find within easy reach of the Metroplex.
For generations, the property has served as both working land and a place to enjoy the outdoors. Today, it offers the next owner a blank canvas to create a family retreat, recreational ranch, weekend escape, or long-term legacy holding while preserving a piece of North Texas history.

The landscape is balanced between productive grazing pasture and dense native timber that provides excellent habitat for whitetail deer, turkey, wild hogs, and other native wildlife. Nearly a mile of Turkey Creek frontage, two ponds, internal ranch roads, and panoramic countryside views create a setting that feels far removed from the city while remaining easily accessible.

• Approximately 2200 feet of direct paved county road frontage on CR 1792 with electricity available along the road and inside the property.
• Turkey Creek, a seasonal waterway, winds through the ranch providing nearly a mile of creek frontage, with excellent cover and habitat for whitetail deer, turkey, wild hogs, and other native wildlife. The ranch has been only lightly hunted by the family.
