Property Description
This 176.789-acre ranch, located just south of Gatesville off FM 116, offers an exceptional blend of productive pasture, wooded privacy, and natural beauty. With rolling terrain and an 80-foot elevation change, the property provides sweeping views of the surrounding countryside and multiple ideal homesites for your dream ranch retreat.
The land is approximately 60% open pasture, well-suited for cattle or horses, with the balance covered in a diverse mix of hardwoods—Oak, Pecan, Mesquite, and Cedar—providing excellent shade, wildlife habitat, and character. Cottonwood Creek meanders through the ranch, accented by 10–20 ft. limestone bluffs that add a dramatic backdrop and create a one-of-a-kind setting. Water is a true highlight: a windmill water well supplies reliable water, complemented by a smaller stock tank and a newly constructed tank over an acre in size, perfect for livestock, wildlife, or fishing.
Improvements include a 30' x 60' barn, functional cattle pens, and well-maintained fencing, making the property immediately usable for livestock operations. The open pastures provide strong grazing potential, while the wooded areas offer cover for wildlife, making this ranch equally attractive for both ranching and recreational pursuits.
The location combines seclusion with accessibility—just 2.3 miles from Coryell Health Hospital, within Gatesville ISD, and a short 30-minute drive to Waco, Temple, or Killeen. Whether you are seeking a working cattle ranch, a recreational getaway, or a scenic place to build a custom home, this property offers the versatility to fit your vision.
With its blend of improvements, water resources, dramatic creek frontage, and rolling views, this ranch represents a rare opportunity to own a showcase property in the heart of Central Texas.
