Brazos River Cattle Operation

This northwest Texas cattle ranch is highly improved, with everything from a first class preconditioning yard, 130 acres of sandy cultivation, and 200 acres coastal bermuda, to a beautiful 3BD/3BTH owner's home. Four large earthen tanks, a 7 acre marshy lake, and over one mile of frontage on the Brazos River provide abundant surface water for livestock and native wildlife, including whitetail deer, turkey, feral hog, and migratory waterfowl.

Extensive cross fencing, pipe-corners, and braces allow for easy rotation of stockers throughout the pastures. There are nine total pastures on the ranch, providing a variety of seasonal and native grasses for year around grazing, such as bermuda, buffalo, and gramma grasses, wild rye and bluestem. There are three cultivated fields on the south end, which the owner has kept in wheat for winter protein.

In the middle of the ranch, on a hill overlooking the bottom pastures along the river, sits a first class preconditioning yard, capable of holding 1200 head. In addition to the lots and lanes, there is a truck loading chute, two hydaulic working chutes, cake bin, feed barn, equipment carport, house office, and a hay barn with interior office. The whole yard is set up to move stockers efficiently through it to the grazing pastures. A gravel road runs from the ranch entrance on the county road on the south side to the yard, for all weather traffic.

Also along this gravel road is a bricked modular home, with three spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms. An attached two car garage provides covered parking, while a large concrete porch in the front is perfect for relaxing at the end of the day. This modular home was put on the property in 1991 and has been immaculately kept by the present owners. The ranch also has a pipe-roping arena, and the tanks are stocked with bass and crappie for sport.

This property has been reasonably priced at $1100/acre. With mineral rights available, the package is as complete as you will find for this size of an operation. The facilities are in excellent shape; you are sure to be impressed with this whole property.
