Welcome to a piece of Texas history, The Erskine Ranch. This exceptional 117-acre property has remained in the same family for more than 117 years and offers a rare opportunity to own a productive Central Texas ranch with a proven agricultural legacy. Located in beautiful Limestone County with frontage on two county roads and no restrictions, this ranch is ready for its next owner to make it their own. The traditional 2-bedroom, 1-bath farmhouse sits overlooking green pastures and rolling countryside. Being sold fully furnished, it's ready to enjoy from day one, whether as a full-time residence, hunting camp, or weekend retreat. Designed for both cattle production and recreation, the ranch is fully fenced and cross-fenced for rotational grazing. With strong native grasses and regular fertilization, the property has traditionally supported 45-50 head of cattle year-round. Livestock operators will appreciate the pipe working facilities, cattle corral, and loading pens already in place. Water is one of the property's strongest assets. A spring-fed stock tank maintains a consistent water level, while an additional pond and a reliable water well provide ample water for livestock and wildlife alike. For the outdoorsman, the ranch offers outstanding hunting in a secluded area of Limestone County. Mature hardwoods, dense cover, and recently cleared back acreage create excellent habitat for whitetail deer and other native wildlife while improving accessibility throughout the property. Whether you're hunting, fishing, running cattle, or simply enjoying the wide-open country, this ranch offers the perfect balance of productivity and recreation. Opportunities to purchase a ranch with this kind of history, productivity, and recreational appeal are becoming increasingly rare. Come see The Erskine Ranch and start building your own legacy.
