Andrews Place is a 326±-acre property situated approximately eight linear miles southwest of Childress, Texas, with paved frontage along Farm to Market 2103, offering convenient year-round access. The ranch presents a well-balanced blend of productive dry cropland, attractive native pasture, strong water features, and quality wildlife habitat, making it equally suited for production agriculture and recreation.
The topography is mostly gently rolling, punctuated by attractive creek-bottom areas where Shores Creek meanders through the property, lending both scenic character and natural drainage. The native pasture portion includes a good turf of native grass with scattered mesquite and juniper. Most of the mesquite was sprayed in past years. Approximately 150 acres of dry cropland anchor the agricultural side of the property, while also providing a large food source for a variety of game species. An additional 20±-acre tract within the native pasture area can be cultivated separately for food-plot purposes, giving the next owner meaningful flexibility to tailor the land for grazing, wildlife management, or a combination of the two.
Water is a defining strength of Andrews Place. A water well serves the property, while surface water is provided by two earthen tanks, one of which is spring-fed and covers just over an acre. These features provide vital water resources for livestock and wildlife.
The property lies within an area frequented by both white-tailed and mule deer. Quail, dove, and varmints round out a diverse game population and reflect the quality of the native habitat. A set of corrals provides the working infrastructure for livestock, and the ranch as a whole represents a versatile combination of recreation and livestock production in a well-located and accessible package.
