Development Potential:
Though this ranch is currently being run as a recreational/cattle ranch, it is very well situated, and primed for development. The property is located in both Brock ISD (3A School) and Weatherford ISD (6A School), two excellent school districts with great facilities and reputations. The close proximity to the interstate is ideal for having the ability to develop near a major highway, while at the same time being far enough a way from the traffic to have peace and quiet.
