Exceptional Mulberry Canyon Ranch with Breathtaking Views & Luxury Improvements
Spanning 242 total acres across two parcels (162 acres + 80 acres), this remarkable property offers a rare combination of expansive land, privacy, and refined living in the heart of Mulberry Canyon with unobstructed views of Castle Peak and East Peak.
At the center of the ranch sits a gorgeous custom primary residence built by Kyle Paul, featuring 4 bedrooms and 3 baths with quality craftsmanship throughout. The home is designed for both comfort and security, including a cinderblock-lined safe room that doubles as a storm shelter, a stone-coated steel roof, and a Generac liquid-propane generator ensuring peace of mind year-round.
Outdoor living is exceptional with a heated pool featuring an automatic cover, a fully enclosed oversized back patio, and retractable solar shades, perfect for enjoying the sweeping West Texas views in every season. The kitchen is outfitted with high-end Viking appliances, ideal for entertaining or everyday living.
Ranch infrastructure is equally impressive, highlighted by a 60x40 shop with a climate-controlled bonus room and half bath, full perimeter predator fencing, an automatic gated entrance, and city water--a rare and valuable asset for a property of this size.
This turnkey ranch offers endless opportunities for livestock, horses, recreation, or a private legacy property, all while delivering luxury, security, and unmatched scenery in one of the area's most sought-after canyon settings.
