Property Description
Looking for a blank canvas in the heart of the Piney Woods? This 17 +/- acre tract on County Road 4686 outside Timpson has cleared acreage, road frontage, and no zoning or restrictions to slow you down. Homestead, hunting camp, or just elbow room, it's priced to move and ready for your vision.
The land was cleared at one point and has since grown back in brush, so it's a mowing job away from being an open home site again. It's partially fenced, and electric is nearby. No water meter on site yet, but community water runs along County Road 4694 (would need an easement across the neighbor to the south). Most buyers out here go the well route.
Quiet and rural, but not off the grid. Center is about 15 miles away, Nacogdoches around 30 minutes, Longview about 45 miles, and Shreveport, Louisiana roughly 75 miles. Tyler runs about an hour and 20 minutes, and Dallas and Houston are both around 3 hours, close enough for a trip, far enough you'll never hear the traffic.
Shelby County is prime East Texas Piney Woods territory for whitetail and hogs, and there is a lot of game sign in this area. Surrounding pine and hardwood cover makes for good natural travel corridors, and the area has a long local hunting tradition.
Lake Murvaul is about 14 miles north. Toledo Bend and Sam Rayburn, two of the South's best bass lakes, are both roughly an hour away.
Bring your plans, your camper, or your deer stand; this tract is ready to be whatever you make of it!
