This unique property with the rolling terrain, wet weather creeks, a deep pond and a rarely seen Earthship home offers true off-grid living. A deeded easement of a 1/4 mile through US-owned forest land brings you to the entrance of the property. Designed by architects and engineers who wanted to build a comfortable but off-the-grid home, the Earthship has the features when it was built some 15 years ago. The Earthship contains a rain catch system for water, solar panels and rechargeable batteries for electricity, is insulated with repurposed materials, propane for the kitchen, and an atrium with established citrus trees fed by the gray water system. A little TLC is needed to get the Earthship to its' former glory. This property is not in the flood plain nor are there pipelines present. Two hours from Houston, 1.5 hours from the Woodlands, and 30 minutes west of Lufkin. Give me a call to take a look at this property and everything it has to offer with potential to go up in value later!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
