With flowers blooming and trees budding, it’s a great time to take a drive out to the country and visit some of North Texas’ most beautiful farms and ranches. According to Dax Pass, a ranch and land specialist with Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty, there’s tremendous interest in Texas farm and ranch properties these days. High on the list are farms and ranches 50 to 200 acres in size and close to town, Pass said.
One of the most exciting properties now on the market is the Silver S Ranch near Sanger, about 50 minutes from downtown Dallas. With more than 100 acres, the Silver S Ranch at 4323 Duck Creek Road is a great place to raise horses, escape city life and create long-lasting family memories. The Silver S is also drawing strong interest as an investment because it is situated right in the path of future development.
“This is the perfect ranch with a spectacular house that is built to last,” Pass said. “The contemporary home is extremely livable with a modern steel, stone and glass construction.” Designed by the Lake/Flato architectural firm, the home is dramatic and features floor to ceiling windows that provide maximum exposure to the sweeping views.
The two-story house has three bedrooms, three baths, two living areas and two dining areas. There are three fireplaces, an enchanting loft and a kitchen that has everything a cook would want, including a double oven, stainless-steel appliances, an eat-in breakfast bar and an island for easy meal preparation.
The ranch home offers outdoor living at its best with a fire pit and a covered patio. There is also a two-story barn with the second level finished out as a luxurious office and apartment. A one-acre pond has a boat dock just waiting to be fished.
The property is served by the city water system and there are two good wells. The orchards have hundreds of commercial pecan trees.
