Welcome to a truly magnificent East Texas ranch offering a rare combination of luxury living, premier recreational opportunities, and productive land. Spanning approximately 493 picturesque acres, this exceptional property is anchored by a stunning 4,539 SF custom home perched above a serene 13-acre private fishing lake. Crafted with impeccable quality and attention to detail, the residence showcases marble flooring, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, all seamlessly integrated into an open-concept living area designed for both comfort and entertaining. Expansive rooms throughout the home offer natural light and unobstructed views of the ranch. The upstairs office provides a quiet retreat with panoramic views overlooking the lake and rolling pastures beyond. This ranch is ideally suited for both agricultural and recreational pursuits. Approximately 300 acres are devoted to improved pastures for grazing, while 193 acres of mature hardwood timber provide a haven for deer, hogs, and other native wildlife—perfect for hunting or nature exploration. Infrastructure on the property includes multiple barns for equipment and hay storage, workshops, and a remarkable 7,000+ SF metal building complete with a caretaker’s apartment. A network of well-maintained trails winds throughout the property, making it easily navigable by ATV or horseback. Numerous ponds are scattered across the land, supporting both livestock and wildlife. With over 9,000 feet of frontage on a State Highway, the ranch is easily accessible and offers significant long-term value. Whether you're looking for a private luxury retreat, a working cattle operation, or a hunting and recreational paradise, this East Texas gem offers it all in one extraordinary package.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
