The Tolliver Estate is a legacy 601-acre ranch located just south of Hico in northern Hamilton County, offering a rare combination of productive pasture, rolling terrain, and exceptional recreational potential. With over 6600 ft of frontage on CR 293 and multiple gated entrances, this property provides easy access and privacy, making it ideal for a weekend retreat, working ranch, or long term investment.
The land features elevation changes from 1080 to 1240 ft, creating scenic hilltop build sites with sweeping views. A mix of beautiful hardwood timber-Post Oaks, Live Oaks, and Elms-frame the landscape along side brushy draws and native grass pastures. Several small stock ponds are already in place, and the natural topography and watershed offer excellent potential for small lake development. The ranch includes three water wells with electricity, one of which is reported to produce over 100 GPM. A large metal shop with a slab foundation and sliding doors provide functional workspace and storage. Two sets of working pens with barns and sheds support livestock operations, while two old homesteads with historic barns, windmills, and weathered structures add character and a sense of history to the property.
There are also two improved grass fields in need of renovation from Mesquite invasion, but full of promise. The entire property is surrounded by mostly large neighboring ranches, with no nearby development encroaching on the peace and seclusion it provides.
While the Tolliver Estate could use some TLC and clean-up, it holds all the right ingredients to become a premier livestock and recreational ranch, offering a unique opportunity to own a true piece of Texas with strong potential for future development or a lasting family legacy property.
