The Ranch at Pecan Creek – McGregor, Texas

Welcome to The Ranch at Pecan Creek This 78 acre legacy property offers rolling land, long views, and the kind of privacy that’s getting harder to find in Central Texas. Set along Rattler Hill, where it meets New Windsor Parkway, this location blends country calm with practical access. You’re minutes from McGregor and under 20 minutes to Waco, yet once you step onto the land, the rest of the world fades behind you. It’s rare for a property of this size, quality, and location to become available in this area. Whether you’re looking to build now or hold for the long run, this tract delivers the kind of setting that only gets better with time. Land & Terrain The land opens with a concrete entry drive off Rattler Hill and unfolds into gentle rises and rolling pastures. Elevation crests near the center of the tract, offering wide-open views and ideal build sites set back from the road. The front of the property is naturally screened by a mix of native oaks and mesquite, providing immediate privacy without the need for clearing. As you move deeper in, the terrain opens up to bright pastureland, multiple homesite options, and long sightlines across the surrounding countryside. The rectangular layout and solid fencing make it easy to manage whether you’re building a residence, running cattle, or both. Water & Wildlife The Ranch at Pecan Creek benefits from a strong natural watershed that drains toward nearby Pecan Creek. Multiple locations exist to build a stock pond or tank, ideal for livestock, wildlife, or fishing. The land is covered in native grasses and has supported cattle for many years. The ag exemption is in place for continued use and low taxes. This area is known for healthy populations of white-tailed deer, turkey, and native birdlife. The blend of open pasture and wooded pockets creates a habitat that supports both recreation and ranching. Improvements & Utilities A concrete entrance is in place off Rattler Hill. The property is perimeter fenced and currently holds cattle. Power is available at the road and can be extended to your build site. A water line nearby is managed by Central Bosque Water Supply Corporation. Buyers should confirm the availability of a meter directly with the provider. Opportunities & Location This part of McLennan County rarely sees tracts like this come to market.
