Supplements
yet maintain privacy. But more than just a place for a fantastic new home, this is a cattle ranch as well, plus it offers excellent hunting and wildlife viewing. It currently runs cows and has water development and naturally occurring springs in the long draw that runs through the property. This ranch is also adjacent to Upper French Creek Ranch, which is also offered for sale*.
DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Bighorn Vista Ranch is currently zoned Agricultural, which allows up to 15, 35-acre minimum tracts. If re-zoned, one could pursue a Planned Unit Development, or simply create 100, 5-acre sites, all of which would have incomparable views.
Conservation
Perhaps you have no desire to subdivide the property, or perhaps you might like to ensure the lasting unobstructed view of the ridge from Buffalo. This ranch lends itself to a conservation easement, which can have some tax advantages.
Ranching
This property has been used for the grazing of cattle for many years.
Hunting
Bighorn Vista Ranch offers plenty of pronghorn antelope at all times of the year. You'll also find some mule deer and Hungarian Partridge. It's possible that elk might enter the property, but it shouldn't be expected. They like to reside on top of the adjacent property.
For a buyer looking to add more land, please inquire about the opportunities with combining this ranch with Upper French Creek Ranch.
CLIMATE
The climate around the Buffalo/Sheridan area is one of the most "live-able" climates in Wyoming with pleasant summers and moderate winters. Perhaps it's the proximity to the 45th parallel along with the positioning next to the Bighorn Mountains and the lower altitude, but the Bighorn Mountain foothills have always been one of the most desirable places to live for those who have experienced it.
