Valley View, TX 76272(Cooke County)

Two stories of comfort and delight await you in this custom-built stone home. Built in 2003 by the current owner, extra attention was paid to making this incredible home as energy efficient and family-friendly as possible. There is plenty of space in the 6,951 square feet of 5 bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms with an office/study, exercise room, game room, home theater, formal dining enormous kitchen and breakfast area. Spacious, practical and luxurious, this beautiful home has an equally impressive and expansive outdoor living area. The custom pool has a raised spa, swim-up bar with submerged flagstone bar stools, three fountains and a tile mosaic on the bottom. Under the covered area is plenty of room for outdoor dining, as well as a full outdoor kitchen. A large fireplace and firepit, gazebo and pavilion offer options for entertaining under a variety of seasons. The view from the outdoor living area overlooks a scenic 150-foot drop down to some of the best deer and wildlife areas on the property. When all the covered areas are included, this home boasts 8,024 ft under roof.

The luxurious home sits on 337 acres on some of the best farming, ranching and hunting land in North Texas. With over a mile and a half of Little Indian Creek frontage, the fertile bottomlands yield heavy harvests of milo and wheat, with excellent potential for other crops, as well. Lots of mature timber and associated underbrush along the creek and other drainage areas, plus the annual crops grown close by, grow and hold monster bucks. Deer, turkey, hogs, bobcats and coyotes are regularly seen throughout the property. The upland pastures are well-maintained and fertilized for maximum hay and grazing. There is an 80 acre pasture of incredibly lush Coastal Bermudagrass, with other pastures mixed with Coastal and native grasses. In addition to the live water offered by the creek, there are four ponds, two of which have been stocked.

All low-water crossings have been improved, with an application of gunite to make a hard bottom for driving. The biggest crossing, over Little Indian Creek, has drilled piers, guardrails and is covered with gunite.

Two large barns house most of the tools and equipment used to maintain the property. One is original wood-framed but with new exterior metal. The other is steel-framed and insulated, with concrete floor and a full bathroom. Both have water, electric and 220 service. Two grain bins with electric augers make it easy to store grain for planting or corn for deer feeders. First-class cattle chutes and working pens are located near the barns, with a small office nearby serving as the ranch headquarters. Two large pole barns keep equipment and implements out of the weather. Several livestock loafing sheds, a fenced chicken pen and fenced garden round out the list of things in place to enjoy the farm and ranch life.

No oil/gas production on the property. One quarter of the minerals owned by seller will convey. The sellers have represented that they own the entire mineral estate. Exact mineral ownership will be determined at closing.
