Wooded 16 +/- Acres with Pond, Timber, & Utilities Ready

Property Description

Tucked just outside of Timpson in the heart of Shelby County, this 16 +/- acre tract offers a solid foundation for the buyer with a vision. The property is wooded and private, with a mix of mature hardwoods and younger pines that give it real long-term potential, both as a homesite and as a timber investment down the road. Like most natural East Texas tracts, some light selective clearing would go a long way toward opening up the land and revealing its full character. The bones are here, and with a little work and the right owner, this can turn into something special.

From a utility and access standpoint, this property is well-positioned. Electric service is already available and runs through the tract near where a homesite would naturally lie, and community water is accessible along the road, two infrastructure items that can be surprisingly hard to find on rural acreage at this price point. A small pond sits on the property and could be expanded with some dozer work into a functional fishing pond or wildlife watering hole. With over 900 feet of frontage along CR 4789, getting equipment in is easy, and you'll have plenty of flexibility on where to set your entrance. No known deed restrictions means no one is telling you what to build or how to build it.

The location adds quiet appeal without putting you out in the middle of nowhere. Timpson sits at the junction of US Highway 59, the future Interstate 69, and US Highway 84, so everyday conveniences are close without the noise and congestion that comes with them. Lake Timpson, a reservoir on Blackwater Creek, offers fishing, boating, and picnicking just a short drive away, and the larger towns of Nacogdoches, Center, and Carthage are all within reasonable range for shopping, dining, and medical needs. If you're looking for a workable piece of East Texas land with good utilities, solid frontage, and room to make it your own, this one is worth a look.
