Description
Summary
This 142-acre property in northwestern Rusk County offers an excellent blend of timber, pasture, and accessibility. Located just east of US Hwy 259 between Kilgore and Henderson, the property combines agricultural functionality with recreational appeal. With mature pine timber, improved pasture, solid fencing, and good internal access, it presents a solid opportunity for those seeking a working ranch, investment tract, or weekend retreat.
Land Characteristics
The land features gently rolling terrain with elevation ranging from approximately 350’ to 420’ above sea level. The tract is a near-even mix of pasture and timber, with the wooded portion consisting primarily of mature plantation pine estimated to be 30+ years old. The timber appears to have been well-managed and is approaching a stage where future harvests could provide economic return. While no formal timber cruise is available, the volume and quality of the stand are readily observable.
The open areas of the property are currently used for cattle grazing, with improved grasses supporting livestock production. Perimeter fencing is in place and appears to be in good condition, with some cross fencing as well. One notable feature is a nine-acre hay field in the southern portion of the property, offering a separate, well-maintained forage source.
Recreational Appeal & Wildlife
In addition to its agricultural utility, this property offers great recreational value. The layout of the timber blocks, coupled with pipeline and powerline easements, creates a substantial amount of “edge habitat,” which is highly attractive for wildlife, especially white-tailed deer. The area is also known for its population of eastern cottontail rabbits, gray foxes, raccoons, and other native species, making this a great location for hunting or wildlife watching. The internal road system is well-maintained and provides excellent access throughout the property, including to hunting blinds or potential cabin sites.
Improvements & Easements
There are two oil and gas wells on the property—one in the northern third and another in the southern third. These are small in footprint and are maintained by the operator, who also keeps the interior ranch roads in good condition. While there is no mineral interest included in the sale, the surface is being used productively and with minimal disturbance.
Several utility easements cross the property, including an electric transmission line that runs east-west through the central portion of the tract. There are also multiple pipeline easements. All are well-maintained and provide added visibility and open areas that can double as hunting lanes or potential food plots.
Location & Access
Access to the property is provided via CR 173 N, with the main gate located at 32.2993, -94.8576. The location offers convenient proximity to nearby towns and regional hubs:
• 7.5 miles to Kilgore
• 8.5 miles to Henderson
• 35 miles to Tyler
• Approximately 125 miles to Dallas via I-20
From Interstate 20, the property is easily reached by exiting at either SH 42 (to Kilgore) or SH 259 (to Henderson), depending on direction of travel.
