Topography & Land Features
The tract consists of gently rolling terrain with elevation ranging from approximately 350 feet to 440 feet above sea level. The natural slope of the land provides excellent drainage, scenic views, and multiple potential home sites. The irregular shape of the property enhances its privacy and allows for creative land use and development. Two small pastures near the FM 1857 frontage provide excellent options for building sites or establishing utility improvements. Additional small clearings throughout the tract offer natural locations for food plots or camp areas.
Water Features
Walnut Branch, a seasonal creek, winds through the northern portion of the property, contributing to the propertys scenic character and supporting area wildlife.

The majority of the property is wooded with a healthy stand of mixed native timber, including various species of oak, hickory, elm, and loblolly pine. The understory is relatively open in many areas, allowing for ease of travel and expanded visibility throughout the tractideal for both recreation and hunting. The natural diversity in vegetation supports a robust wildlife population, including whitetail deer, wild hogs, and small game species. The property's appeal is further enhanced by neighboring large acreage timber tracts to the east and south, reportedly managed for deer hunting, which helps ensure continued wildlife traffic and lower hunting pressure in the immediate area.
Utilities & Infrastructure
Electricity is available along the FM 1857 frontage, making utility access straightforward for future improvements. It has also been reported that community water is available through Rusk Rural Water Supply Corporation; however, buyers are encouraged to verify availability and connection feasibility independently.

Summary
This 147.68-acre tract offers a rare combination of natural beauty, convenient access, and utility potential just south of Rusk in central Cherokee County. With a diverse mix of upland and bottomland terrain, rolling topography, mature timber, and multiple year-round creeks, the property presents a prime opportunity for recreational use, future development, or long-term investment. Portions of the tract lie within the city limits of Rusk, offering access to municipal services while maintaining the privacy and feel of a rural landscape. Whether youre seeking a hunting property, private retreat, or a strategic land holding in East Texas, this tract checks all the boxes.
Location & Access
The property is located directly south of the City of Rusk with frontage on both Loop 343 and FM 762, allowing for excellent access from multiple directions. The northern section of the property lies within the Rusk city limits, offering the unique benefit of municipal infrastructure without sacrificing privacy. Rusk, the county seat of Cherokee County, is a small East Texas community known for its historic charm and outdoor amenities. Notable attractions include the Texas State Railroadfeaturing scenic rail excursions through the Pineywoodsand the Cherokee Civic Theatre, which offers community performances year-round. The area is rich in history and recreation, with nearby opportunities for camping, fishing, and hiking at Jim Hogg Park and other public areas.
Land Characteristics
The terrain is gently to moderately rolling, with elevation ranging from approximately 410 feet to 480 feet above sea level. The topography creates a natural sense of movement and character across the property, enhanced by a network of creeks and draws. Two primary creeksOne Eye Creek and College Creekconverge in the northwestern portion and continue through the center of the tract, ultimately draining southward. Multiple smaller creeks and springs feed into these drainages from the east and west, creating excellent watershed conditions and abundant surface water. This dynamic landscape provides both aesthetic value and strong habitat potential for wildlife.
Timber & Vegetation
The property is predominantly wooded, with an estimated 22 acres of open pasture located in the northern and central portions. The timber consists primarily of native species common to East Texas, including loblolly pine, white oak, post oak, hickory, and sweetgum. Approximately 50 to 55 acres of the timbered area were thinned in recent months. While this thinning leaves a decent amount of standing timber, it may also present cleanup needs depending on the intensity of the harvest and how much debris remains. Buyers should be prepared to assess these areas for potential mulching, dozer work, or selective clearing to improve aesthetics or functionality. Areas that were not thinned are heavily wooded with dense, mature mixed timber and an intact understory typical of East Texas pine-hardwood forests. These wooded portions support strong wildlife habitat and natural cover, providing good potential for hunting or conservation management.
Water & Wildlife
Surface water is one of this propertys most impressive features. The convergence of One Eye Creek and College Creek provides a reliable year-round water source, while the numerous spring-fed branches contribute to consistent water flow and ecological diversity. These riparian areas support healthy plant and animal life and serve as natural corridors for wildlife movement. The property's timber, water, and topographical diversity make it particularly attractive for hunting, wildlife watching, or habitat management efforts. With neighboring tracts comprised of similar wooded and undeveloped acreage, the area retains strong recreational and conservation value.
Utilities & Easements
The property benefits from reported access to city water and sewer lines due to its proximity to the Rusk city limits, making future development or homesite construction more viable. Electricity is also available along the road frontages. There are multiple recorded easements across the property, including a small electrical transmission line, local electrical distribution lines, and at least one pipeline easement. These easements are common in the region and appear to be relatively minimal in their impact to the lands usability or visual appeal.
