THE RANCH is a unique, rural subdivision located on US Hwy 83 just north of Bismarck, ND offering care-free country living.  At THE RANCH you’ll find all of the amenities of city living — in a beautiful, rural setting.  You’ll find paved roads, natural gas, rural water, cable TV and high speed internet. THE RANCH also has  private sewer system managed by South Central Regional Water District.  That’s right — no costly septic system to install or maintain.  You’ll save several thousand dollars because you won’t have to install a private septic system.  Just connect to the sewer system and pay a monthly sewer fee — it’s as easy as that.  (The system is a full sewer system with manholes and sewer pipes, a below-grade processing tank and a drainfield.  No holding pond.)   There is a small annual fee of $240 for maintenance/ management of the green space areas and walking trail, but there are no specials and the taxes are less out in the county!

The layout of THE RANCH development is as unique as the land upon which it sits. With beautiful buttes and coulees and a ridge on the northwest edge of the development dropping down to the southeast — the varied topography add beauty and interest, and allows for sweeping views of this serene, rural area.

The average lot size at THE RANCH is roughly 3/4 to one acre, allowing for a spacious yard and room for an outbuilding — but with less yard to care for than the average rural lot. The smaller lot size is balanced with generous open, natural areas for all residents to enjoy — and there are so many ways to enjoy THE RANCH!  Wander through the coulees and climb up to the top of a butte on the natural walking trail.  Witness the sun peeking over the distant horizon while you enjoy your morning coffee.  Enjoy the antics of the abundant wildlife from the patio in your back yard. Join the kids racing down a sledding hill or catching frogs in the coulee.  Climb to the top of a butte to catch a spectacular sunset. Sit by the fire under a blanket of stars.  Take a deep breath … and relax, you’ve come home to The Ranch.
