Here is your opportunity to take the reins and continue the legacy of this deep-rooted and historic centennial farm in the heart of the Copperton Valley. Wichita Valley Farms has been a working farm and ranch for over 100 years, with the rocky peaks of the Wichita Mountains as witnesses. The soil of Wichita Valley Farms has raised everything from cotton to wheat and everything in between and now nurtures a hardy stand of native Oklahoma grass pasture, as it has for much of its more recent history. There is a good pond in the pasture that has provided reliable water for livestock, even during the harshest droughts. There is also an old water well adjacent to the pond that could be used to supplement the pond or simply provide a separate water source if necessary. The perimeter and cross fences are all in good enough shape to contain even the most rambunctious cattle, and the set of working pens on the property functions just as well now as they did decades ago. This is a turnkey ranch property, and although many of the amenities and improvements on this ranch are not the newest or the most modern, they are characterized by the patina and appearance that can only come from years of use in the harshest conditions that Oklahoma has to offer. Yet, they still continue to stand strong and fulfill their purpose. The old granary and milk barn, thought to be over 100 years old, still serve a purpose on this ranch, though now only as storage and potentially as livestock shelter. If those old weathered walls could talk, imagine the stories they would tell! There is also a large 40x80x18 round-top barn/shop to house all of your large machinery and equipment. A smaller 30x40 metal building sits adjacent to the ranch house and provides ample room for additional vehicles and storage for yard equipment or whatever else you might need. The ranch-style brick home features a metal roof, three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, two living areas, and a warm and cozy dining room and kitchen, as well as a large utility room just off the attached garage. This is a strong and sturdy home with features and amenities that were made with functionality and longevity in mind. The charm and warmth within the bones of this home will always remain, even after the new paint and modern touches that will come with the changing seasons and new chapters. This property is truly a gem with all it has to offer and is best appreciated by seeing, hearing, and feeling it in person. The sight of the beautiful Wichita Mountains lifting the sun to the east in the mornings and setting it to the west in the evenings, along with the sound of elk bugling on a cool fall morning while the rest of the valley slowly wakes up, is something you must experience for yourself to fully appreciate. There are very few places in all of Oklahoma where such an experience is even possible, and Wichita Valley Farms is one of them. There are some things, places, and experiences that are impossible to put a monetary value on, which makes them priceless. However, when you come and check out this place, you will also see how those priceless things, places, and experiences can be so valuable. Don’t let this opportunity to continue a legacy, all while adding to your own, pass you by. All showings are by appointment only.
