Introduction

Investors and Developers: without a doubt, the best parcel to have in the Ropesville area! Numerous developments have sprung up in the immediate vicinity, and yet none of them have this amount of paved access (FM 41 AND SH 168). It is relatively flat and has minimal flood area. It has excellent access, as it is only 0.3 miles to Ropesville and .4 miles to 62/82– and a 15-20 minute drive to Lubbock, TX (population of 260, 993). Ropesville, Texas has exploded with residential developments as more folks are seeking to live out in the country, with a desire to have more space, yet still want an easy commute to Lubbock, TX for jobs, shopping, dining, etc. As Lubbock expands, more and more folks are looking outside city limits to build and call home. Lubbock SMSA is projected to be 379,592 by 2030 and 486,128 by 2050, which will further expand this trend. The construction of Loop 88 will tie into 62/82, and inevitably will make the close commute to Ropesville even closer.

Location and Access

The parcel is located in Hockley County, Texas of the Texas High Plains +/- 11 miles SW of Lubbock, TX (pop: 263,993) and less than a half mile from Ropesville, TX. The property has paved road access from FM 41 and SH 168, and sits on the NE corner of the intersection. US HWY 62/82 to Lubbock is less than a half mile away, making access to big city amenities easy with very little stop lights or signs. There is approximately 2,565 ft of paved FM 41 frontage and approximately 2,740 ft of paved SH 168 frontage.

Overall Property Description

Lubbock’s rapid growth has spurred the development of numerous out-of-town tracts, especially those with convenient access to the city. Increasingly, buyers are seeking spacious lots beyond city limits where they can build custom homes, complete with shops or barns—offering the freedom and flexibility that urban living can’t match.

This property stands out as a prime opportunity. It offers seamless access to Lubbock via the divided four-lane US Highway 62/82, providing a direct, 15-minute drive to the heart of the city. While several residential developments have emerged in the surrounding area, none enjoy the same level of accessibility as this tract.

Currently under active cultivation, the land can continue to serve as productive farmland until the new owner decides the time is right to develop. The sandy loam soil is especially well-suited for vineyards, and other grape growers in the area have already capitalized on similar conditions—highlighting another layer of potential for this versatile property.

The seller is unaware what percentage of minerals are currently owned.  Seller owns 100% of the wind rights and will convey.  The owner owns 100% of the water rights which will transfer to the new owner.

Broker Remarks & Pricing

This property offers a prime investment opportunity with exceptional potential for future development. Ideally suited for subdivision into residential housing tracts, it also remains highly functional as a productive farm until the timing is right for growth. As Lubbock continues to expand, the demand for ”out of town” tracts and residential lots rises steadily, making this a strategic asset for both immediate use and long-term investment.

Both parcels are offered at $8,500/acre, or $1,462,280.
