Property Description
Located just 4 miles northwest of Bowdon, North Dakota, this premier 320± acre ranch presents a rare opportunity to own a turnkey cattle operation paired with exceptional living accommodations. The ranch offers a highly productive mix of land, with 180 acres of cropland and 34 acres of pastureland, featuring soil productivity indexes in the high 60s and 70s.At the heart of the property is a stunning custom-built home boasting over 6,000 square feet of living space, thoughtfully designed for both comfort and entertaining. Features include a large porch with an outdoor grilling station, a separate entrance to a mother in law suite, open concept living area, and a private entrance leading directly to the office. The mother in law suite is versatile and could easily double an entertainment area, a private mother-in-law suite, or additional living space for extended family and guests. From the deck overlooking Lake Ontario, you'll also enjoy nightly western sunsets, adding to the unique character of this ranch.The agricultural infrastructure has been carefully laid out to support efficient, year-round operations. A state-of-the-art calving and working facility serves as the centerpiece and could easily be adapted as a horse breeding and training facility if desired. The ranch also includes a horse barn with box stalls, a hay loft, and a heated tack room, along with 20± acres of fenced corrals equipped with automatic waterers. Additional improvements include a fully heated shop with attached living quarters, ideal for guests or caretakers, a spacious cold storage shop, livestock shed, and well-designed cattle corrals. Every improvement has been built with longevity and functionality in mind, ensuring seamless ranch management.In addition to its agricultural strengths, the ranch is located in the heart of the Prairie Pothole Region, renowned for its exceptional hunting opportunities. The property supports abundant wildlife habitat, offering world-class waterfowl hunting as well as outstanding deer, moose, and pheasant hunting. The surrounding wildlife management areas and small productive lakes further enhance the appeal for sportsmen. Outdoor enthusiasts will also appreciate the proximity to major fishing lakes such as Lake Audubon, Devils Lake, and Horsehead Lake, all well known for their excellent walleye fishing.Accessibility is another strong attribute of this ranch. It is within 90 miles of Minot, Jamestown, and Bismarck, and within 30 miles of two small-plane airports, providing both convenience and seclusion. The seller also has additional land available to purchase and/or rent, offering buyers the opportunity to expand their operation. With a suitable offer, the seller would further consider granting the buyer a first right of refusal on leasing the remaining land.Please note that all interested parties must show proof of qualification prior to viewing.
