Description
This approximate 10-acre tract offers a private, wooded setting just off CR 173 between Kilgore and Henderson in northwestern Rusk County. With gently rolling terrain, mature timber, and access to utilities, the property presents a great opportunity for a secluded homesite or small recreational retreat.
Land Characteristics:
The land features gentle topography with roughly 20 feet of elevation change, creating a natural landscape ideal for a rural homesite or weekend cabin. The property is primarily wooded, with a mix of mature hardwoods, scattered pine, and understory brush that offers excellent privacy and wildlife cover. The shape and layout of the tract lend themselves to a tucked-away build site with minimal clearing required.
Utilities & Development Potential
Electricity and community water are reportedly available along CR 173, helping to reduce development costs for future improvements. With no known restrictions, the tract offers flexibility for residential use, a barndominium, or even a small livestock or garden operation. The wooded setting and natural roll of the land provide the kind of character that’s hard to find on smaller acreage.
