Improved Recreational Land & Farm for Sale in Detroit, Texas

Long time family owned 170 Ac +/- ranch located just east of Paris TX nestled next to the town of Detroit. Solid cattle ranch with good carrying capacity representative of the area. Strong grasses and each pasture has ponds for both livestock and wildlife to water. Fences are generally in good shape and there are a good set of cattle working pens plus barns and shop building for equipment storage.

The 1940's era farmhouse was moved out from Paris back in the 2019 and has "good bones" for renovating into a full time residence, weekender, or ranch hand home.

In addition to being a great cattle ranch, there is some opportunity for hunting and fishing for recreational purposes for friends and family! For nature and exercise enthusiasts the Northeast Texas Trail runs along the FM road and stretches from Farmersville to New Boston (130 miles) of hiking and biking
