2574 N County Road 222, Henderson, TX 75652

Price Reduced! Discover 42.3 breathtaking acres just 5 miles east of Henderson in Rusk County, Texas, offering the perfect blend of privacy, recreation, and convenience. This fully fenced property has been meticulously maintained and improved to enhance its beauty. It features a large pasture inside an inviting entry gate with several hundred yards of blacktop county road frontage. Gravel roads lead through the pasture and freshly mulched areas to a tranquil pond with 12x16’ pavilion and lovely meadow surrounded by mature pines and hardwoods. The meadow and pasture are elevated above the adjacent countryside – stunning settings for your new country home. There are trails throughout the property, making it perfect for exploring and enjoying nature. With plenty of wooded areas, it offers excellent hunting and abundant wildlife – a dream for outdoor enthusiasts. An arched bridge crosses a wet weather creek, large enough for a side-by-side or tractor, adding both charm and functionality to the property. Electricity runs through the property for easy access, and while a well is required for a home, the land is ready for your dream build with beautiful homesites and a scenic country feel—just minutes from town. Natural gas and fiber optic internet are available along the county road. Other bonuses include deer stands and a 40-ft storage container, large enough for tools, utility vehicle and canopied tractor with front-end loader and brush cutter. The property has harvestable timber and is eligible for a county agricultural/timber exemption which significantly reduces property taxes. There is no oil/gas lease, equipment or infrastructure of any sort on the property. However, an area energy company recently approached the owner about drilling for gas under the property from an off-site location. This is important because the owner has 7.5% mineral interest/rights. This could generate significant future income, and the owner is willing to transfer all mineral interest to the buyer. It is rare for landowners in East Texas to have mineral rights and even more rare for property owners to transfer those rights when they sell. So, this is a valuable special case and a big plus for prospective buyers! Desirable restrictions apply. These were established by the owner of the original 600-acre tract to prevent prospective buyers from junking up their property and imposing upon their neighbors. Owner Note: This is truly a beautiful property which must be seen in person to gain full appreciation. We were planning to build our dream home here, but the Lord has another plan for us. We want to give someone else the opportunity to love and enjoy the property as much as we have! Please contact us for a personal showing. Access by appointment only.
