Description
Poe Farms is a rare legacy ranch offering an exceptional blend of recreation, history, and functionality. Held by the same family since the 1950s, this property reflects generations of stewardship and is rich with character rooted in Native American heritage and early Texas settlement. A nearby Civil War era cemetery further enhances the historical significance of the area. This ranch offers an ideal setting for a family homestead or private retreat venue.
The land features rolling topography with mature cedar, pine, and oak, evidence of natural springs, and an established network of trails providing access throughout the property. Two stocked ponds with catfish and bass, along with abundant whitetail deer, hogs, and small game, make this an exceptional hunting and fishing retreat. An existing pipeline sendero enhances wildlife movement and visibility.
Improvements include a spacious main residence designed for large gatherings, featuring an oversized kitchen and dining area with a wood burning stove, a sunroom overlooking the ranch, a large family room with fireplace, and an additional flex or game room. Attached office or guest quarters with a restroom provide additional accommodations.
A separate cabin offers flexibility as a guest home, family homestead, or short-term rental. It features a fireplace and a porch overlooking the valley, along with a nearby workshop, storage shed, and two Conex containers.
Ranch infrastructure supports livestock and operations with fenced pasture, ample grazing and hay capacity, a 30 x 50 pole barn with electricity and dual lean tos, and a 50 x 60 pole barn with corrals. Community water is in place with one meter, along with a former water well on the property. An incomplete oil well is also present, and the seller plans to retain the remaining mineral interests.
The property offers paved road frontage and is located approximately 25 minutes from Livingston and 10 minutes from Naskila Gaming. An agricultural exemption is currently in place, resulting in low property taxes.
