1,923 Acres in Childress County, TX • Price: $2,550 per AC (Seller willing to subdivide) • Location: 8 miles south of Childress, TX (Conveniently located off Hwy 62 - 83) Property Overview Welcome to a premier, massive Texas land holding straddling the border of Childress and Cottle counties. Offering 1,923.2 ± acres of contiguous, open, and rolling terrain, this acreage stands out as a generational asset. The owner is willing to subdivide, giving you the flexibility to buy the entire ranch or secure a custom-sized tract built for your specific legacy, cattle operation, residential subdivision, or long-term investment goals. A unique engineering and logistical advantage defines this ranch: all parcels connect seamlessly under Hwy 62 - 83, ensuring fluid access, internal traffic flow, and safe utility or pedestrian movement across the entire property without highway interference. The Housing & Development Advantage in Childress, TX Childress faces a critical and growing demand for quality housing, making this 1,923-acre holding a prime candidate for master-planned residential growth, workforce housing, or custom acreage home sites: • Strategic Highway Frontage: Direct connectivity and access along the heavily traveled Hwy 62 - 83 corridor allows for rapid commutes into the heart of Childress (just 8 miles away). • Flexible Sub-Division Readiness: Already legally divided into 5 distinct tax appraisal parcels across Childress and Cottle counties, phase-by-phase residential development or builder lot sales can start immediately. • Turnkey Water Infrastructure: Unlike surrounding properties that face severe water security hurdles, this ranch features an established water distribution network-including a stocked 4-acre pond and deep structural water tanks-drastically lowering initial site-development and utility planning hurdles for community layouts. • Multi-Use Master Plan Potential: The rolling, scenic topography and native tree cover allow developers to carve out scenic greenbelts, recreational walking trails, and low-density country residential or multi-acre homestead lots while preserving the area's natural charm. Unmatched, Extensive Water Features What truly distinguishes this property from any other land option in the region is its extensive and highly reliable water infrastructure: • The West Side: Features a beautiful, fully stocked 4-acre pond, serving as a prime central feature for a future neighborhood park, sport fishing, or a scenic water backdrop. • The East Side: Anchored by a massive water tank ensuring constant, reliable hydration across the eastern pastures. • Regional Dominance: The balance of open surface water and deep structural tanks creates a resilient, drought-resistant landscape. Clean Parcel Breakdown The property is legally divided into 5 distinct tax appraisal parcels, making a future subdivision or structured sale incredibly straightforward: • Childress County: • Parcel 4206: 29 AC • Parcel 6114: 640 AC • Parcel 6296: 645.4 AC • Parcel 5707: 306 AC (Sits directly on the county line; half in Childress, half in Cottle) • Cottle County: • Parcel 0002283: 317 AC A True Sportsman's Paradise (Dual-Use or Phase-1 Amenity) While portions are developed for housing or ranchette tracts, the natural terrain makes an ideal open-space or recreational amenity for future residents: • Trophy Game: Established free-range hunting for trophy mule deer and whitetail. • Wingshooting & More: Seasonal populations of quail, dove, turkey, and wild hogs. • Recreation: Expansive terrain for off-roading, ATV trail riding, hiking, and horseback riding. Current Use and Potential • Cattle grazing leases and recreational hunting management. • High-demand positioning for residential acreage subdivision, workforce/local housing expansion, a private hunting outfit, or an expansive cattle ranch.
