The standout fact at 15 County Road 426 Rd W is scale: 295.27 acres with about 7/10 of a mile of Colorado River frontage in Mills County, priced at $2.51 million. At 15 County Road 426 Rd W in Goldthwaite, TX 76844, this Farm - Ranch offering gives buyers a rare mix of live water, usable pasture, wildlife cover, and long-range hilltop views on a dead-end county road.

This is the kind of property that works for both recreation and long-term land ownership. The river frontage supports fishing, kayaking, and strong habitat for whitetail, bobcat, fox, raccoons, and dove. Two stock tanks add more water sources across the ranch, and the older pecan orchard plus oat field create productive bottom land that has also supported cattle grazing. The land is fenced and cross-fenced, which matters if you want to rotate livestock and keep management straightforward. County road frontage divides portions of the ranch, making access practical for different uses and future homesite planning.

Elevation change is a major part of the appeal here. The hills create multiple build sites with broad views over the ranch and toward the river corridor, while the lower ground gives you shade, grazing, and established trees that fit family gatherings, weekend cookouts, and river days. The listing also notes arrowheads and grinding stones have been found on the property, which adds another layer of interest tied to the land itself.

The existing improvements are simple but useful. There is an older frame ranch home of about 940 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, reported to date to around 1940, plus an older barn that remains usable. Because published square footage for the overall listing is limited and this is fundamentally a land-driven Farm - Ranch sale, price per square foot is not the metric that matters most here. Price per acre is roughly $8,500, which is the more relevant way to evaluate value on a tract of this size with waterfront.

For schools, the property is in Goldthwaite ISD, with Goldthwaite Elementary, Goldthwaite Middle, and Goldthwaite High School all serving the address. School ratings are not provided in the listing data. Drive time to Goldthwaite is about 15 minutes for groceries, restaurants, and daily errands, which keeps the ranch connected without giving up privacy. Between the Colorado River, County Road 426 Rd W access, and proximity to Goldthwaite, this ranch sets up well for a legacy retreat, working land use, or a future homesite with real staying power.
