17551 Longview Rd., Elk Creek, MO 65464 - Texas County

This 280 acre ridgetop cattle ranch is organically managed and meticulously maintained. Abundant water features are found throughout the ranch. These include 7 ponds, 4 of which are spring fed. This means that the majority of the ponds are cold, clear waters, with some being large enough to stock with fish. Besides the natural water features, the current owner has brilliantly engineered the water systems for cattle and require little maintenance. There are two productive wells on the property, one of which is a solar well, which supplies 5 automatic waterers and two additionally plumbed locations ready for use. A holding tank is in place for the solar well and the system of waterers is gravity fed. The other well on the property has a brand new pump and feeds several waterers and a frost freeze hydrant. There are multiple outbuildings/barns, including an enclosed, weather-proof, hay barn, shop with electricity, carport and equipment shed. There is also an older farmhouse, milk barn and shop. Organically managed and rotationally grazed for over ten years, this property is absolutely breathtaking and a haven for wildlife. There are multiple deer stands on the property, which have brought in some gorgeous trophy kills. This ranch has some of the biggest deer beds we have ever seen. Great mix of roughly 60/40 pasture to woods make this a perfect cattle ranch, hunter's paradise, or corporate retreat. Miles long views, with many great building sites for a dream ranch home.
