Property Description

Nestled on almost 10 acres, this East Texas property offers the perfect blend of comfortable living and wide-open space for a family ready to put down roots. The main house sits back off the road on a gentle rise, roughly centered on the property, offering privacy and a great view of the land — with great neighbors close by. This 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home has been completely remodeled from the studs out: new sheetrock, electrical, plumbing, and windows throughout. The exterior has been updated with durable Hardie board siding, and every exterior wall and the attic have been upgraded with spray foam insulation for year-round efficiency. A whole-home propane generator keeps the lights on no matter what, and the kitchen features a new gas cooktop. The home also includes a 2-car carport and a large laundry room. A second home on the property — a mother-in-law suite built just three years ago — offers a private upstairs bedroom, ideal for extended family, guests, or rental income potential. The land itself tells its own story: the front of the property is open pasture, perfect for horses or livestock, while the back drops into a beautiful wooded bottom offering shade, cover, and natural charm. An older well on the property is available for watering the yard, garden, or animals, while the home itself is served by community water — known locally for its great quality — and an aerobic septic system maintained by BoomTown Industries of Longview. A barn on the property lost its roof in a past windstorm but remains structurally intact and ready for someone to rebuild. Fencing throughout has solid, well-set posts but needs finishing and cleanup, and the property would benefit from bushhogging and fence line maintenance. This is a property with great bones and even greater potential — ideal for a buyer or family with the time and vision to finish what’s been started and make it their own.
