High Point Ranch offers numerous recreation opportunities and the diverse landscapes land buyers desire in today's farm and ranch market. This 186-acre combination farm/hunting property is located just outside Necessity, Texas. Established during the Civil War and Reconstruction era, Necessity was aptly named to signify the determination of its founding ranchers who settled in the area. Since its inception, the population of Necessity has dwindled to ten people, making this a quiet, rural location with abundant privacy. Each side of the ranch offers accessible road frontage and numerous building sites with beautiful views of the adjacent hillsides. Nestled on the southern boundary, the High Point Ranch takes its moniker from the highest peak on the ranch, providing views of the numerous ponds. Amidst rolling hills and undulating terrain, an array of bull Mesquite, Live Oak, and Post Oak trees scatter the landscape. As a bonus, this property provides abundant surface water features with several draws, creating a tremendous natural attraction for waterfowl. The cultivation is located in the northern portion of the property, with most soil compositions being Towde clay loam and Leeray clay. This tillable dirt is ideal for raising sunflowers during dove season and winter wheat during deer season, with the additional potential to harvest hay.
