The Chapman Ranch

Located on the banks of the historic Red River in Lamar County just 1.5 hours northeast of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, The Chapman Ranch on the Red is a premier 420-acre recreational retreat offering an unmatched combination of natural beauty, privacy, fishing, hunting, and outdoor adventure in the heart of Northeast Texas. Conveniently located on an FM road for easy year-round access, the ranch features a gated entrance and long gravel drive that provide both convenience and exceptional privacy as you enter the property. One of the ranch's most impressive features is over one mile of Red River frontage, offering a unique blend of high scenic bluff banks and accessible sandbar shoreline. This diverse river frontage creates incredible views, endless recreational opportunities, and exceptional wildlife habitat rarely found on properties in Northeast Texas.At the center of the ranch sits a well-positioned 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick home perched atop a scenic hill overlooking one of the ranch's beautiful lakes and surrounded by scattered mature oak trees. The elevated setting provides breathtaking views, peaceful sunsets, and the perfect place to relax after a day spent outdoors. This impressive ranch features four deep clear-water lakes stocked with largemouth bass, crappie, and catfish, creating exceptional year-round fishing opportunities right on the property. Over five miles of established ATV and ranch trails wind throughout the ranch, allowing easy access while showcasing the property's dramatic rolling topography and scenic views. With over 150 feet of elevation change, the ranch offers a rare terrain profile for Northeast Texas, featuring mature timber throughout including hickory, oak, and towering cottonwood trees that create incredible wildlife habitat and scenic beauty across the property. The ranch supports an abundance of whitetail deer and wild hogs, with quality mature bucks consistently harvested year after year. The combination of river frontage, crop ground, timber, and water sources creates an exceptional environment for producing and holding trophy wildlife. In addition to the outstanding deer and hog hunting, the ranch also features a large natural low area that offers excellent potential to create a sizeable duck hunting impoundment. With the property's water resources, river-bottom habitat, and location along a major wildlife corridor, the ranch presents tremendous waterfowl development opportunities for the next owner. Rich fertile crop ground located along the Red River bottom not only enhances the wildlife habitat but also provides the opportunity for agricultural lease income, adding an investment component to this already versatile ranch. The combination of recreation, hunting, waterfowl potential, and income-producing acreage makes this property increasingly rare in today's market. Additional improvements include an equipment shed with attached shop area and overhead door, providing ample storage for ranch equipment, ATVs, boats, and tools.
