Property Description
This premier cutting horse training facility in Potosi, Texas, thoughtfully designed for the serious horseman, trainer, breeder, or competitor. Located just 15 minutes from Abilene and approximately 2 hours from the Fort Worth Stockyards, this exceptional equestrian property combines a comprehensive training setup, extensive horse facilities, cattle-working improvements, multiple residences, and convenient access to West Texas amenities, including the Taylor County Expo Center and Guitar Arena.
At the heart of the property is an impressive 100' x 100' covered riding arena, allowing horses to be worked in nearly any weather. The arena is equipped with a Big Ass Fan, fly-prevention system, automatic water, 11 gated stalls, and 8 tie-down stalls. Whether starting young horses, tuning up seasoned competitors, giving lessons, or operating a professional training program, the facility is designed with functionality and efficiency in mind.
The Sweetwater Barn expands the operation with 14 oversized 12' x 16' gated stalls, dedicated vet and tack rooms, automatic water, and an installed fly-prevention system. A Priefert 40' six-horse Free Flow Walker provides another valuable component for conditioning, exercising, and maintaining horses in a professional program.
For outdoor training and cattle work, the property features a substantial 240' x 140' outdoor roping arena along with a 37' breaking pen. A separate approximately 2± acre cross-fenced cattle pen includes cover, automatic water, cattle-loading facilities, and a squeeze chute—providing an efficient setup for keeping and working cattle on-site.
Horse turnout has also been carefully planned. There are seven turnout traps ranging from approximately 1 to 6.5 acres, each offering cover and automatic water. An additional approximately 36± acre fenced pasture with a pond provides even more room for grazing, turnout, cattle, or other ranch uses.
Supporting the operation is a hay and commodity barn offering convenient storage for feed, hay, equipment, and ranch necessities. The barn also includes two apartments with kitchenette and refrigerator, creating valuable accommodations for employees, guests, clients, or visiting trainers. RV hookups are conveniently located along the south side of the facility.
The centerpiece of the residential improvements is the custom-built 4-bedroom, 2-bath main home, offering a comfortable retreat after a long day at the barn. The home features an oversized two-car garage, utility room, tile and manufactured wood flooring, and appliances that convey with the sale. Outside, an in-ground swimming pool creates an inviting place to cool off, entertain family and friends, or simply relax and enjoy the West Texas setting. A separate 3-bedroom, 2-bath doublewide foreman's home provides additional housing for ranch or training staff, extended family, or guests.
From the covered and outdoor arenas to the oversized stalls, walker, turnout traps, cattle facilities, employee housing, multiple residences, and in-ground pool, this is much more than a horse property—it is an established equestrian training complex designed to support a serious performance-horse operation while still providing the comforts of home.
Enjoy the space and functionality of a West Texas horse facility without giving up convenience. You can be in Abilene in approximately 15 minutes for shopping, dining, entertainment, veterinary services, and everyday necessities, then be back in the saddle in no time. With the Fort Worth Stockyards approximately two hours away, the property is also well positioned for access to the heart of Texas horse country, major equine events, competitions, and sales.
Whether your focus is cutting horses, cow horses, roping, breeding, training, boarding, or a private equestrian operation, this Potosi property offers the infrastructure, location, and versatility to bring it all together in one exceptional facility.
