Welcome to your private North Texas ranch retreat—ideal as a full-time residence, weekend getaway, or exceptional family compound. Set on 31 scenic acres, this rare property offers peaceful country living just under 25 minutes from Denton and the DFW Metroplex. At the heart of the ranch is a 6-acre stocked lake, perfect for trophy fishing and quiet afternoons by the water. Gently rolling pasture provides ample space for cattle or horses, blending beauty with functionality. The 4,704 sq ft two-story log-cabin–style home features 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. The open-concept main level is designed for entertaining, with a spacious kitchen showcasing granite countertops, a large center island, and abundant cabinetry, flowing seamlessly into expansive living and dining areas. Oversized windows fill the home with natural light and capture sweeping countryside views, while a wood-burning stove adds warmth and rustic charm. The large dining area easily accommodates gatherings and guests. Upstairs, a generous multipurpose room serves as a media, game, or entertainment space, offering flexible living options. Just steps from the home is an impressive 5,000 sq ft barn with central heat and air and a full kitchen. Currently used for large gatherings, this versatile space could serve as a workshop, classic car garage, event venue, or— with minor modifications— a climate-controlled horse barn with stalls. The grounds are beautifully maintained, featuring a manicured lawn, arched driveway, elegant nighttime lighting, and multiple water features. Additional highlights include ag-exempt taxes and Slidell ISD. A truly rare opportunity to own a private ranch with wide-open space—without sacrificing convenience to DFW amenities.
