HUNTING RANCH, borders 550,000 acre ranch! near Crowell, Texas

Posted on January 14th, 2012

This is a fantastic opportunity to own a great whitetail hunting property, private and turn key! It is wedged in between large neighbors, with 2 miles along its east and south borders joining the 550,000 acre W. T. Waggoner Estate Ranch, one mile along its west border joining a 4,500 acre cattle ranch, and on its north side a 640 acre section. The majority of the B Bar is dense brush, with senderos cut that lead to food plots and water basins, and some cleared pasture.

The ranch is in Foard County, approximately four miles west of the Wilbarger and Baylor County lines. Full article…

Posted on January 10th, 2012

Construction has begun on the New Charlesview, one of the nation’s largest multifamily starts within the past year which, remarkably, is mostly affordable housing.
