Description
Summary: Welcome to your next adventure on this tract located on the west side of CR 1804, just seven miles southwest of Jacksonville, Texas. This property offers a fantastic opportunity for a small-acreage tract with excellent mixed-use potential for both agricultural and recreational activities.
Location: Conveniently situated along CR 1804, this tract enjoys a perfect balance of accessibility and privacy. The short frontage along the county road is heavily wooded, providing a secluded entrance that ensures privacy while maintaining easy access to nearby Jacksonville.
Property Characteristics: The property boasts a harmonious mix of timber and native pastures set on gently rolling terrain with elevations ranging from approximately 330' to 370' ASL, offering beautiful vistas and varied land use. The interior of the tract is predominantly open, featuring strips of mixed timber that separate the land into smaller pastures, ideal for managing a few cows or for creating recreational spaces. The bulk of the timber is located on the periphery, enhancing the sense of privacy and seclusion while allowing for versatile use of the interior land. Multiple low-lying areas across the tract could be transformed into ponds or waterfowl impoundments, further enhancing the property's recreational value. Despite some areas being prone to flooding, the excellent drainage ensures these incidents are brief. The lower elevation pastures are ideal for cattle grazing or small-scale hay production. The current owners utilize the property for cattle grazing and benefit from an Ag exemption, keeping annual costs low.
Wildlife: The land supports a variety of local grasses and trees, including Bermuda and Bahia for pastures, and native hardwoods and pines in the timber areas. The northern boundary is framed by creeks, with a smaller creek to the northeast and the larger Gum Creek to the northwest, adding to the property’s natural charm and practical appeal. This diverse habitat supports abundant wildlife, making the property excellent for hunting. The mix of smaller pastures and open spaces allows for safe and enjoyable hunting experiences for multiple family members.
