The HWY 79 Ranch is an exceptional cattle-grazing and investment property situated in North Central Texas. The ranch encompasses 430 acres and has been managed to preserve native grasses and control invasive mesquite growth. Cross-fencing divides the ranch into two main pastures, as well as a trap located near the large set of pipe working pens. This setup supports rotational grazing and offers efficient herd management. The ranch has excellent surface water, featuring two smaller livestock ponds as well as a large pond that serve as reliable water sources for cattle and wildlife. A scenic plateau area is located near the east edge of the property and has lots of character, providing a great spot to view the large pond and the surrounding countryside. Ideally situated in the sought-after cattle ranching region of Archer County, this property is strategically located between two major livestock auctions located in Wichita Falls and Graham. Access is convenient via Highway 79, and the ranch is located less than a two-hour drive from the DFW Metroplex. The HWY 79 Ranch presents an excellent opportunity as a standalone ranch, an addition to an existing cattle operation, or a solid investment property with future potential, given its substantial road frontage and onsite utilities capable of supporting several divisions of the property. The property is equipped with available electricity and rural water along Highway 79, comprised of a four-inch city waterline running the entire length of the Highway 79 frontage. Other improvements include large pipe corrals, cleared grazing areas with established native grasses, an area of the property that could easily be converted to a cultivated field, good to excellent fencing, Highway 79 frontage, two smaller livestock ponds, as well as a large pond. Whitetail deer, dove, quail, and waterfowl.
Directions: Located in Archer County, seven miles south of Archer City on Highway 79.
