Glen Rose, TX 76043(Somervell County)

The ranch includes a rock and cedar finished home completed in 2009 with over 6,200 SF of living and over 10,000 SF under roof with large porches that deliver breath taking views of the Paluxy River valley. The 5 bedroom, 5.2 bath home includes 30 ceilings in the main living area with an incredible wood burning stone fireplace with stone accents and walls of windows looking out to the covered porch area. The eat-in gourmet kitchen is a chefs delight with stainless steel appliances, double ovens and dishwashers, and a large center island with second sink and breakfast bar. The granite countertops, custom cabinets and exposed beams are evidence of the craftsmanship throughout the house. The home is ideal for family living and entertaining with a separate game room and media room. There is also a hobby and craft room adjacent to the combination butlers pantry, home office and utility room. The secluded master suite with a spa like bathroom includes a juice bar, inviting fireplace and private sitting and library area. There are four secondary bedrooms in a separate wing of the house. The home was built with the environment in mind, from high efficiency HVAC systems and appliances to the windows, insulation and finishes. The exposure from the environment (sun and wind exposure) was also carefully considered in this homes design.

The back porches match the charm and style of the home with 10-12 deep cover running the length of the west view side of the house providing views that gather in the entire valley. An outdoor kitchen and native stacked stone walls leading down to the pool area create a retreat that is truly unique. Sunset views overlook an on-site lake, Dinosaur Valley State Park, the Paluxy River valley and beyond.

An oversized attached two-car garage and separate two car covered parking area provide plenty of parking close to the house. The horse barn, turnouts and arena will accommodate 10+ horses and a large maintenance barn includes a combination guest house with office. There is a grass landing strip graded approximately 2,500 LF that is used by family and friends.

Dramatic elevation changes occur across the land with highway frontage to the east and Dinosaur Valley State Park to the west. The north and south properties border two other ranches. Large oaks, coastal and native grasses, wheat fields and abundant game and water make this ranch perfect for recreational, cattle or horse operations. The ranch is also high game fenced on the perimeter with the exception of the west side that adjoins the state park, creating a spectacular opportunity for hunting or wildlife watching.
