About this House
Escape the noise and step into the freedom of true Texas ranch living with this private 40-acre working ranch located just outside the quiet town of Sunset, TX. This property offers the perfect balance of functionality, privacy, and opportunity ideal for those looking to operate a ranch, enjoy wide open space, or create a long-term family compound.
Set behind a gated entrance, the land features a beautiful mix of open pasture, productive hay fields, and a stocked pond, along with wooded areas that attract abundant wildlife. Whether you're running cattle, working horses, or simply enjoying the outdoors, this property is fully set up and ready to go.
The ranch includes a comfortable home that serves as the perfect base for daily operations or relaxed country living. The layout offers a practical and inviting space with natural light and views of the surrounding land, making it easy to enjoy both work and downtime on the property.
Outside, the infrastructure is already in place to support a working operation. The property features a large barn with plans available for a future barndominium conversion, working cattle pens, loafing sheds with horse stalls, a chicken coop, dog kennel, and multiple storage buildings. The land has previously supported cattle, horses, and poultry, and is designed to be fully manageable without requiring a full-time ranch hand.
For those with bigger plans, there is ample room to build additional improvements, including a horse arena, shop, or additional structures. Located on unincorporated land, the property offers the flexibility to expand and customize without the limitations of city restrictions.
Stay connected while enjoying rural living with Starlink high-speed internet availability, providing reliable service for work or business operations.
Conveniently located with easy access to Hwy 287 and within driving distance to Bowie, Decatur, and Fort Worth, this ranch delivers both seclusion and accessibility.
