HOUSTON (August 23, 2018) – After another purchase at Gates Ranch, only eight family farms remain in the exclusive ranch community. The 1,500 acre development – of which 522 acres are still available – is located only one hour from Houston in the rolling hills of historic Washington County. And with the expansion of US 290 almost complete, Gates Ranch will soon be closer to Houston than ever!
All Gates Ranch estates offer manicured pastures, mature trees and stunning views.
Our newest owner purchased Far Ridge, a 49-acre estate in Phase III which offers some of the most spectacular views in Gates Ranch. Topping out at over 300 feet above sea level, the property offers a wonderful panorama of the Brazos River Valley. The farm’s home site is characterized by 50 feet of elevation change that slopes away from the homestead down to the farm’s pastures. The Far Ridge estate also features a pond and groves of both old and more recently planted oak and pecan trees.
Like Far Ridge, all Gates Ranch properties offer pristine land, beautiful views and complete privacy. Gates Ranch is not only close to Houston, it’s also an easy drive to College Station, Austin, San Antonio, and Dallas/Fort Worth, all of which are within approximately 200 miles of the community. Smaller estates can be combined to create larger ones and all properties are protected through deed covenants, which safeguard against noise pollution and ensure high quality architecture, landscaping and maintenance.
Gates Ranch estate owners make their farms uniquely their own, building beautiful homes
designed by elite architecture firms such as Lake|Flato Architects and others.
