luxury real estate for sale Gordonville, United States

Spirit Ranch is a 109+/- acre turnkey equestrian property on Liberty Road in northern Grayson County, in the heart of Texas performance horse country. Inside the gated entry lie large coastal grass pastures, two ponds, and a 3.5-acre stocked trophy bass fishing lake. The paved entry drive crosses a concrete dam and leads to a 2,550 sq ft custom log home built in 2003 with 4 bedrooms and 4 full baths - the primary suite and a second bedroom down, two more upstairs, each with its own bathroom. The living area features a two-story wood-burning river rock fireplace, granite counters in the kitchen, and views overlooking the lake below. A concrete porch wraps all four sides of the home, taking in the lake with dock and fishing pier, and a 20' x 30' gunite pool with cover, spa and picnic area. Continuing along the drive is a large workshop with a neatly arranged shelving system and room for multiple machines, implements and ranch tools, with elevated gasoline and diesel fuel tanks alongside. The equestrian center is anchored by a 275' x 135' covered and lighted arena, with the round pen under there is a riding area of 200' x 100' suited to every form of horsemanship. Attached are a 50' round pen, a 33' x 50' covered hay storage bay on concrete, two 18' x 23' foaling stalls with professional sponge rubber flooring, nine 12' x 20' stalls, an 8' x 8' feed room and an 8' x 8' bathroom. Vet stocks for mare and foal sit near the foaling stalls for ease of handling. Outside the arena are nine paddocks with loafing sheds and entries into the larger pastures. Water is well distributed, with 20 hydrants placed throughout the barn, paddocks and pastures. The home and barns are served by Northwest Water, and a 100' water well with electric submersible pump is believed to deliver 10-14 GPM. The ranch is cross-fenced into eight pastures, with both paved and all-weather ranch roads and riding trails throughout. Electricity is single phase through Grayson-Collin Electric Cooperative, serving the home, barn, arena, pool and shop. Game found on the ranch includes whitetail deer, turkey, dove, geese, rabbit and bobcat. The property carries an agricultural exemption, and no minerals are owned by the seller. Schools are Whitesboro ISD. Gordonville sits on the edge of Lake Texoma, offering swimming, camping, boating, fishing, hiking and trail riding. Grayson and Cooke counties together are home to 27 major horse farms and training facilities specializing in reining, cutting, cow horse, ranch pleasure, racing, halter and pleasure training, showing and breeding. The area is also known for sandy-loam soils, strong hay production, and the nearby towns of Sherman and Gainesville. When location, recreation opportunity, equestrian enterprise, sport fishing and development potential all count, Spirit Ranch is a solid 10.
