Description
Nestled just northeast of Elkhart in southern Anderson County, Texas, this 29.73-acre tract offers a unique blend of privacy, versatility, and natural beauty. Fronting along the northern boundary of ACR 163, also known as Blue Ribbon Road, this vacant property is a perfect canvas for your dream homestead or recreational retreat. Its balanced mix of open pastures and wooded areas provides a secluded and serene setting while maintaining excellent access to nearby conveniences.
Property Characteristics: The property features a thoughtful layout with approximately half-open and half-wooded terrain. A remarkable feature is the wooded perimeter that creates a natural privacy buffer from neighbors and the roadway. Inside, the open areas comprise three interior pastures: a 2.5-acre front pasture, an 8-acre middle pasture, and a 4-acre rear pasture. Each pasture is framed by timber buffers, adding to the property’s homesite appeal and offering an ideal balance of seclusion and functionality.
The topography is gently rolling, with elevations ranging from 380 to 410 feet above sea level, providing picturesque views and drainage. A small pond nestled between the front two pastures, surrounded by hardwood trees, enhances the property’s aesthetic and utility. Timber includes a mature mix of hardwoods in the front and pine in the rear, offering both beauty and practicality for future use.
Natural Features and Wildlife: This property boasts a diverse ecosystem typical of Anderson County. Grasses such as Bahia and Bermuda flourish in the open pastures, making it suitable for grazing or hay production. Currently, the pastures are overgrown with native weeds but could easily be converted for your desired use whether that is agricultural or wildlife in nature. The wooded areas are rich in native trees, including oaks, elms, and pines. Wildlife enthusiasts will appreciate the abundance of deer, squirrels, and songbirds that frequent the area, while the pond may attract ducks and other waterfowl.
Location: Conveniently situated just east of the US Hwy 287 corridor, the property is approximately two miles from Elkhart and less than 10 miles from Palestine. Rural utilities, including electricity and water, are readily available, making development straightforward. Whether you're looking for a peaceful homesite or a multifunctional recreational property, this tract’s accessibility and natural appeal make it a standout option. Coordinates to the front gate are 31.6456; -95.5577. No signs are on the property but a Whitetail Properties lock is on the gate.
