Benjamin, TX 79505(Knox County)

Terrain: Canyon Mesita Ranch is a turn-key property that is seldom seen on the market, offering fantastic views, large cedar break escarpments, mesquite flats, diverse terrain for recreational activities, and excellent hunting in big ranch country. The headquarters is conveniently located near the ranchs entrance and sits atop the higher ground of the property, offering outstanding views of the Wichita valley canyon breaks to the North. A large 30X100 barndominium style shop has living quarters with an open design kitchen/den, bunkroom, large utility room, and 2-bathroom layout for large gatherings at the ranch. The shop also houses 2 large rollup doors for secure storage of vehicles, in addition the East end of the shop offers covered protection for tractors and other large pieces of equipment. A nice covered patio with a stone fire-pit provides a beautiful setting to enjoy the sun set on the Big Country. There are multiple large elevation changes extending to 150+ drops from the cedar-rimmed mesas to the deep painted canyon walls below. The property has good surface water with 4 ponds and several springs providing pools along the brushy creek bottom that runs through the center of the ranch. This offers an excellent water source for wildlife, livestock, and fishing. Some areas of the property are rolling with minimal brush and excellent native grasses with other areas being more elevated and heavier in cedar, mesquite, and hackberry. This ranch is a great setup for the outdoorsman who loves to hunt and enjoys rough ranch country with lots of character. The property has been high fenced with 5 miles of perimeter game-proof fencing and stocked with axis deer, aoudad sheep, and native whitetail deer to provide exceptional trophy opportunities. In addition, a 4-acre divided breeder pen contains a plumbed water supply. These pens are located in a more remote section on the property and are perfect for keeping wildlife calm. A long distance shooting range is setup just North of the headquarters with a shooting platform and bench at various distances out to 1,000 yards! The Canyon Mesita Rancho is definitely worth seeing with its excellent access, multiple year round activities, and the ability to walk right in and start enjoying your ranch property!
