Set on 19.39 acres inside Montgomery County's Perfection Ranch, 23981 Old Dobbin Plantersville Road is an extraordinary equestrian retreat created for horses, hospitality, and legacy living.
Chisholm Ranch began with a rescue. A pregnant mare, shot and abandoned, was brought home through a local SPCA partnership — and the natural horsemanship philosophy that grew from caring for her became the Chisholm family philosophy that shaped every detail of this facility. The result is an equestrian compound built without compromise: four contiguous tax parcels, dual county-road frontage, elite stable infrastructure, and a second-floor hospitality space designed to gather a community.
THE EQUESTRIAN FACILITY
The centerpiece is a cathedral-like barn with vaulted timber ceilings, climate-designed oversized stalls, spray foam insulation, elevator access, a 5-car garage, whole-home generator, and RV parking. Ten 14' x 14' stalls plus one oversized 14' x 28' stall, eleven 14' x 30' run-in pens, a spacious 16' x 85' center aisle, stained concrete floors with center drainage, and a fully appointed wash bay. Soaring 24-foot ceilings with tongue-and-groove finish, custom metal stall fronts, climate-controlled tack room, office, laundry, and a 45' x 43' five-bay garage.
A separate 58' x 60' shop building offers its own 544 sq ft accommodations and run-in sheds. Ten fenced and cross-fenced paddocks complete the working compound.
ABOVE THE STABLES
Upstairs, a 2,065 sq ft hospitality space features a commercial-style gourmet kitchen with custom cabinetry milled from salvaged wood reclaimed from a century-old barn outside Durango, Colorado. A 48-inch KitchenAid six-burner gas range with double ovens, dual matching refrigerators, dual Bosch dishwashers, two copper farmhouse sinks, and a butcher-block breakfast island seating eight.
The gathering space is wrapped in rich architectural detail — wood flooring, tongue-and-groove ceilings, exposed truss beams, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with 21-foot hearth, and floor-to-ceiling glass overlooking the center aisle below. The primary suite offers a private ensuite bath, panoramic countryside views, and a balcony overlooking the stables. Two additional guest suites (approx. 800 sq ft and 480 sq ft) provide complete on-site accommodations. Ideal for private dinners, celebrations, fundraisers, retreats, and family milestones.
THE LAND & COMMUNITY
Four contiguous tax parcels with county road frontage on two sides — offering outstanding flexibility for a private retreat, multi-residence layout, or generational family compound. Deed-restricted equestrian community with covered riding arena, outdoor riding area, tennis courts, stocked pond, entertainment pavilion, gated entry, and concrete streets. Approximately 20 minutes to HCA Houston Healthcare Conroe and Lone Star Executive Airport (KCXO). 46 miles to George Bush Intercontinental (IAH).
YOUR LEGACY AWAITS
It began with one mare in need of saving. What grew from that act of care became an extraordinary equestrian retreat — a working compound built for the horse first, a hospitality space crafted to gather a community, and a property designed to outlive its first chapter. The next chapter is yours to write.
