PRICE REDUCED AGAIN- - 02-01-10 - - You now have a “Once in a Lifetime Opportunity” to purchase a piece of ranching and Paint Horse history in Huntsville, Texas. The Moore Ranch/6J Paint Horse operation is one of the largest breeders of performance paint horses in the world. This ranch is a paint horse dream in Huntsville, Texas and is the source of the most prolific paint horse genetics for roping, working, reining and cutting in the nation. A number of paint horses and this beautiful ranch are now available for your viewing and purchase. This ranch offers pastures, woods, lakes, views, wildlife and all necessary ranching facilities. The Moore Ranch/6J Paint Horse operation is located on 480 acres, 7 miles west of Huntsville and about 1 hour north of Houston, with one mile of paved road frontage on Bowden Road.

Hidden deep in the rolling green pastures, the historic centerpiece of this ranching operation is the three story Moore home. This beautiful home was built in the Colonial Revival style and was constructed in 1913 in Huntsville, by Col. A. T. McKinney. The home was moved by current owners Floyd and Maryann Moore in 1984 from downtown Huntsville to the most beautiful hill on the ranch, overlooking a 10 acre lake. This majestic three story home with its wide galleries and tall columns was used by First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt when she visited Huntsville in 1937. This home has been the setting of many social events and grand parties. After the home was moved, the Moore’s extensively restored it to reflect its history which earned them the Huntsville Board of Realtor’s Community Revitalization Award in 1987. This beautiful working ranch and majestic historical home are a “MUST TO SEE” for any buyer desiring peace and elegance as well as a sense of history and grandeur.
