This approximately 80± acre tract is located in the southwestern portion of Anderson County, just north of the Houston County line and approximately 10 miles southwest of Elkhart, TX. The property offers approximately 3,700 feet of combined frontage along ACR 117 along the northern and western boundaries. The tract is predominantly open and usable, consisting of pasture and cultivated ground, with a small block of mature hardwood timber located along the northern portion of the property near a small pond. The overall layout supports both agricultural use and the potential for a well-positioned rural homesite.

Land Characteristics

The terrain is gently rolling with an estimated elevation change of 10 to 20 feet across the property. The majority of the acreage is open, allowing for efficient use in grazing, hay production, or row crop cultivation. Soils in this portion of Anderson County are commonly sandy loam, which support improved pasture grasses as well as native vegetation. Approximately five acres of timber are located in the northern portion of the property and consist primarily of mature mixed hardwoods and native timber. This area provides shade, habitat diversity, and a natural transition from open pasture to wooded cover.

Water Features

A small pond is situated along the northern portion of the property adjacent to the timbered area. This feature provides a water source for livestock and wildlife while also enhancing the usability and visual appeal of the property. The combination of water and hardwoods creates a natural focal point that is well suited for a homesite location.
