Location and Access

The property fronts the east side of County Road 373, with the main gate located at coordinates: 32.4977, -95.0539. Additional access is available along the rear of the property via CR 3104. Positioned just 1.4 miles north of US Hwy 271, the land enjoys quick connections to Tyler, located approximately 15 miles south, and Gladewater, roughly 10 miles to the north. Interstate 20 is just 6.5 miles southwest, opening direct routes to Dallas and Shreveport. This prime location offers a rural lifestyle with convenient proximity to urban amenities, regional hospitals, and supply centers.

Land Characteristics

The property features gently rolling terrain with elevations ranging from approximately 340 feet to 440 feet above sea level. High points on both the eastern and western portions of the tract offer potential for scenic homesites or future development. The central portion of the property is traversed by several small creeks and natural drainages, creating a diverse and well-watered landscape. These features offer several potential pond-building sites, in addition to the two existing ponds on the eastern side of the ranch.

Agricultural Improvements

Originally envisioned as a high-functioning cattle and hay operation, the property has seen significant improvements over the past six years. The eastern portion was cleared of timber and converted to improved pasture with scattered mature trees, offering an attractive park-like appearance. The western portion is in the final stages of a similar transformation and is currently supporting cattle grazing. Quality perimeter and cross fencing are already in place, dividing the property into manageable pastures for rotational grazing. Additionally, the eastern half features a system of improved ranch roads providing reliable all-weather access. There is also a set of cattle pens that have been constructed on the eastern side of the ranch along a ridge.

Utilities and Infrastructure

Rural infrastructure supports the property with access to both electric power and community water services reported along the eastern and western boundaries. A pipeline easement crosses the property from east to west but does not significantly impact the usability or aesthetics of the land. The combination of fencing, pasture development, and utilities makes this tract ready for immediate use. Buyer will need to verify the availability of utilities.

From the intersection of Interstate 20 and US Hwy 271 (Exit 571A), head north on US Hwy 271 for approximately 5.1 miles. Turn right (east) onto FM 2015 and follow for 1.3 miles.
