43.2 ACRES OF TEXAS FREEDOM FEATURING A POOL, POND, CREEK, BARN, STALLS, MECHANIC SHOP WITH A 12,000 LB LIFT, MULTIPLE RV HOOKUPS, AND AGRICULTURAL EXEMPTION. Enter through the automatic gated entrance and follow the long gravel drive to a beautifully maintained 3 bedroom, 3 bath home with over 1,800 square feet of comfortable living space. Inside, the home features a warm and inviting layout with a stone fireplace, open concept living areas, and scenic views in every direction. Out back, enjoy a beautiful pool, custom-built deck, and fire pit area perfect for entertaining or relaxing under the Texas sky. The land offers an excellent mix of open pasture for cattle, horses, or hay production, along with a pond, creek, mature oak trees, and seasonal wildflowers. Improvements include a 30x50 mechanic shop with a durable 5-inch concrete slab, full electric, welder plugs, air compressor setup, shop sink, and a 12,000 lb lift, ideal for equipment, automotive work, or business use. The 40x60 barn includes horse stalls, loft storage, plumbing for future expansion, and ample room for equipment. Multiple RV hookups are already installed throughout the property. Additional features include a water filtration system, covered areas, carports, multiple gated access points, and a newly installed septic system in 2025. The property currently benefits from an agricultural exemption, providing substantially reduced property taxes compared to many similar-sized recreational properties, a significant advantage for long-term Texas land ownership. For outdoor enthusiasts, the property also features a private 500-yard shooting lane, adding even more versatility and recreation. Whether you’re running livestock, operating a business, or looking for a private turnkey ranch, this property delivers. Ranches with this level of infrastructure, usability, recreational amenities, and low carrying costs rarely come to market.
