Property Description
6,300± Acres | Sutton County, Texas
A truly exceptional 6,300± acre legacy ranch in the heart of Sutton County, offering a rare combination of scale, live water, diverse terrain, extensive improvements, and world-class wildlife. Properties of this size and caliber seldom become available, especially with over 4.5 miles of both sides of Epps Creek, extensive infrastructure, and the versatility to serve as a premier cattle operation, elite hunting ranch, or multi-generational family legacy. With dramatic topography, towering oak trees, exceptional road access, and abundant water resources throughout, this is one of the finest ranches to come to market in Sutton County.
Land: The ranch showcases remarkable topographic diversity, with dramatic elevation changes creating breathtaking long-range views from numerous high points across the property. Rolling hills transition into fertile creek bottoms and expansive native grasslands, while a substantial internal road system provides excellent access throughout the ranch.
Extensive selective cedar clearing has enhanced both the beauty and functionality of the property, opening large areas of productive native grasses while preserving the mature hardwoods and natural character of the landscape. The result is a ranch that is as equally impressive from an operational standpoint as it is visually.
Improvements: The ranch is exceptionally well-equipped for both cattle operations and recreational use with two established headquarters strategically positioned across the property.
The main headquarters features a large shop with integrated living quarters and an impressive set of cattle working pens designed for efficient livestock management. Nearby, a separate quaint foreman's house sits along the banks of Epps Creek, providing additional accommodations in a beautiful setting.
A second headquarters includes another home, an additional set of cattle working pens, and a large barn, providing outstanding flexibility for ranch operations, guests, or multiple families.
There are a total of 9 water wells supplying the improvements and water troughs across the ranch. 7 of which are active with submersible pumps. The other 2 are windmill-driven and not currently in use.
The property also features an existing grass airstrip that could be reestablished, offering exceptional convenience for private aviation access.
Water: Water is one of the defining features of this extraordinary ranch. With well over 4.5 miles of both sides of Epps Creek, the property boasts one of the finest live water resources in the region. Several massive, deep pools exist throughout the creek, creating outstanding recreational opportunities while providing dependable water for wildlife and livestock.
Towering oak trees line nearly the entire length of Epps Creek, creating an incredible riparian corridor that enhances both the scenic beauty and wildlife habitat of the ranch.
Vegetation: The ranch offers an exceptional blend of mature live oaks, post oaks, cedar, mesquite, native brush, and productive grasslands. Massive hardwoods line Epps Creek while additional mature oak cover is scattered throughout the ranch, creating incredible diversity across the landscape.
Wildlife: Wildlife on the ranch is truly exceptional. Native species including whitetail deer, turkey, dove, wild hogs, and numerous others thrive throughout the property. In addition, the ranch supports an outstanding population of exotic game, including seemingly countless axis deer, along with blackbuck, aoudad, and sika deer. The diversity and abundance of wildlife provide exceptional year-round hunting opportunities.
Ranch Infrastructure: Beyond its natural beauty, the ranch has been extensively improved for efficient livestock management. A substantial amount of new perimeter and cross fencing allows for rotational grazing, pasture management, and efficient cattle movement throughout the property. Combined with the extensive road network, multiple headquarters, numerous water improvements, and well-designed working facilities, the ranch is exceptionally well prepared for large-scale agricultural operations while remaining equally suited for recreational ownership.
Location: Situated between Junction and Sonora with paved road access, this legacy ranch offers privacy and scale while still being only about 2 hours from San Antonio and 3 hours from Austin or Midland.
