Quarry Ridge Ranch is a scenic 180± acre ranch in the rolling hills of southwest Cooke County, offering an exceptional blend of recreation, ranching, and long-term investment potential. Characterized by more than 100 feet of elevation change, the property features sweeping views toward Forestburg, productive pastures, mature hardwoods, multiple ponds, and an extensive network of roads and trails that make every corner of the ranch easily accessible.
Thoughtfully positioned in a private setting, the main residence overlooks the property's largest pond and enjoys separation from the balance of the ranch. A comfortable residence, barn, shop, weigh station, and cross-fenced pastures create a highly functional property equally suited for full-time living, weekend recreation, or livestock operations.
Several ponds, including an approximately three-acre lake, along with a seasonal creek provide excellent wildlife habitat while enhancing the property's scenic appeal. Numerous elevated building sites offer outstanding opportunities for future homes or guest cabins, each taking advantage of the ranch's dramatic topography and western views.
Location:
The property is located near the southwestern boundary of Cooke County roughly five miles east of the town of Forestburg and eight miles southwest of Muenster. Drive time to Dallas and Fort Worth is roughly 2 hours and 1 hour and 20 minutes, respectively. The physical address to the property is 9752 County Road 341, Forestburg, TX.
Land:
The landscape is one of Quarry Ridge Ranch's defining characteristics. Rolling ridges transition into wooded draws and open pastures, creating exceptional diversity across the property. More than 100 feet of elevation change provides a sense of scale uncommon for the area while revealing expansive views toward Forestburg.
An established internal road and trail system provides convenient access throughout the ranch, whether checking livestock, exploring the property by ATV, or enjoying an evening drive to one of several scenic overlooks.
Water:
The ranch features multiple ponds with the largest measuring roughly 3 acres. A seasonal creek feeds the 3 acre lake and bisects the property. The house and improvements are serviced by a well that is roughly 440 feet deep.
Improvements:
The ranch is well-equipped with improvements that support both everyday living and agricultural use. The residence overlooks the largest pond and enjoys a peaceful setting surrounded by mature trees. Additional improvements include a barn, shop, weigh station/office, and quality fencing and cross fencing for livestock management. The ranch and fenced and cross fenced.
Recreation/Hunting:
The mix of pasture, tree cover, and water features is well suited for hunting. Plenty of trails are ideal for ATV riding. The limestone quarry on the ranch offers unique recreational opportunities whether as a shooting range or for future water impoundment.
Limestone Quarry:
An approximately 16± acre limestone quarry provides a unique opportunity rarely found on recreational ranches. Located well away from the homesite and screened by the property's rolling terrain, the quarry does not impact the enjoyment or privacy of the main ranch improvements.
Previously operated as a road base quarry, mining ceased approximately five years ago following the retirement of the operator rather than depletion of the resource. According to the current ownership, substantial limestone reserves remain suitable for future road base or agricultural lime production. A third-party consultant's report regarding the quarry is available upon request.
Although new operating permits would be required to resume production, ownership believes the property's established operating history should facilitate the permitting process. Aggregate mineral rights associated with the quarry will convey with the sale.
