00 FARM TO MARKET ROAD 23, RUSK, TX 75785

A 97.78-acre tract located along the west side of FM 23 just north of SH 294 and immediately east of the Neches River corridor between Cherokee and Anderson Counties. Elevation ranges from about 240' to 260' ASL, placing the site above the typical flood line for this section of the river corridor. The land includes open native-grass forage areas, scattered mixed mature timber, and several planted pine stands of varying ages--these planted pines were originally part of a forestry research program associated with the Texas A&M Forest Service. Existing improvements include an older house and shed fronting FM 23 (utilities in place) and centrally located a 35'×40' electric-wired shed, a 285-foot deep water well, and RV hookups so an RV may occupy the site immediately. A timber lease for this tract may be terminated with six months' notice; the lease has been held by the owner 12 years without issue. Importantly the adjacent 89 acre timber lease (which provides river access) offers a potential expansion opportunity for a new owner. The tract is surrounded by large, institutionally managed timber tracts known for deer hunting and lies within a region with strong wildlife habitat. For recreation, timber, hunting and rural living, this property presents a solid East Texas opportunity.
