One of the most historic cattle ranches in Nevada has been listed for $36.525 million. At more than 126,000 deeded acres, the 25 Ranch spans four counties and is recognized as one of the largest and oldest cattle operations in the Silver State. The ranch has significant water rights and is entitled to irrigation use from eight separate sources. What began as a sheep operation in the 19th century expanded into a large cattle operation following a fatal gun battle in which the ranch’s owner, Welsh immigrant W.T.
