"One of the largest ranches in the U.S. and an icon for Texas horse and cattlemen has been listed for $725 million, marking the end of a decades-long courtroom battle among the heirs of cattle baron W.T. Waggoner, who established the estate in 1923.
The estate includes the 510,000-acre ranch spread over six North Texas counties, with two main compounds, hundreds of homes, about 20 cowboy camps, hundreds of quarter-horses, thousands of heads of cattle, 1,200 oil wells and 30,000 acres of cultivated land, "

Do mineral rights come with it? If not, that'd be a deal breaker for me.

Just bought it. Thanks for the heads up!

510,000 acres has a whole lot of places for door to door salesmen and trespassers to disappear in.

14 hundred bucks an acre, damn,that's some cheap arse land.

For those wondering how big 510,000 acres is, it is slightly larger than the 610 loop in houston.

I wonder if the real estate agent is going to make his standard 6% commision........ bring home a cool $43,500,000 if so.
Posted on 8/11/14 at 9:47 pm to beejon
I could buy it but the upkeep would be a real bear.
Posted on 8/11/14 at 10:36 pm to beejon
I hear Jeff Hilderbrand offered $425MM but was turned down.

I wonder if McCombs would buy this or the Raiders franchise? His own mini state or sports team...
