Shelby County - W/S CR 1211, Center, TX
Summary
This 88.84-acre tract is a rare large-acreage offering with extensive frontage on Pinkston Reservoir, located along the north shore of the southern branch of the lake in Shelby County, Texas. With approximately 4,000 feet of reservoir frontage, dual county road access, rolling topography, and a strong mix of marketable pine timber and natural regrowth, this property offers a compelling blend of recreational appeal, homesite potential, and long-term land investment value.
Property Characteristics
The tract contains approximately 88.84 acres and features gently to moderately rolling terrain with elevations ranging from an approximate low of 300 feet above sea level near the waterfront to an approximate high of 390 feet above sea level along the northern portions of the property. The land generally slopes from north to south toward Pinkston Reservoir, creating favorable drainage patterns and multiple elevated areas suitable for homesites with views toward the water.
The property is predominantly wooded, with roughly 70 percent of the acreage in plantation pine timber that appears to be approximately 15 years of age. This timber provides both aesthetic appeal and future income potential. An additional approximately 20 acres consist of natural regeneration that appears to be roughly 5 to 6 years removed from the last timber harvest. This area lies primarily along the eastern boundary fronting County Road 1211 and offers early-successional habitat that is beneficial for wildlife or for a simple buffer from the county road.
Access is a strong feature, with frontage along County Road 1211 on the eastern boundary and additional frontage along a portion of the northwestern boundary on County Road 1217. This dual road frontage enhances usability, flexibility, and potential future development considerations.
Waterfront and Pinkston Reservoir
One of the most significant attributes of this property is its exceptional frontage along Pinkston Reservoir. With an estimated 4,000 feet of shoreline, the tract offers extensive direct access to one of Shelby Countys most well-known recreational lakes. Pinkston Reservoir is a municipally managed water supply lake that is also widely regarded for its fishing and outdoor recreation. The lake supports populations of largemouth bass, crappie, and sunfish, and is known locally as a quieter, less pressured body of water compared to larger regional reservoirs.
The waterfront enhances the propertys recreational value for fishing, kayaking, and nature enjoyment, while also contributing to long-term desirability and value retention. As is typical with Texas reservoirs, areas near the waterline may be subject to flowage or inundation easements tied to the lakes conservation pool elevation, which helps preserve the natural shoreline and limits overdevelopment. This results in a more natural, scenic waterfront environment that is increasingly difficult to find.
Wildlife and Recreation
Beyond the lake itself, the property offers strong recreational appeal for hunting and wildlife observation. The combination of plantation pine, young natural regrowth, and proximity to water creates excellent habitat for whitetail deer, hogs, small game, and a variety of native bird species. The younger regeneration areas along the eastern side of the property provide browse and cover, while the timbered areas offer travel corridors and bedding habitat.
The property is well suited for use as a recreational ranch, weekend retreat, or large-acreage homesite where privacy, outdoor recreation, and access to water are primary objectives.
Location and Area Information
The tract is located in Shelby County, an area known for its deep East Texas roots, abundant timberland, and outdoor lifestyle. The county seat, Center, Texas, is a short drive away and provides everyday conveniences including shopping, dining, medical services, and community events. Shelby County maintains a strong rural character while still offering access to nearby regional hubs such as Nacogdoches and Lufkin.
Outdoor recreation extends well beyond Pinkston Reservoir. The surrounding area offers additional fishing opportunities, hunting properties, timberland investments, and access to larger regional attractions such as Toledo Bend Reservoir. Local events, agricultural heritage, and a slower pace of life continue to attract buyers seeking land, space, and a connection to the outdoors.
Schools
The property is located within Excelsior Independent School District, a small rural district that historically served elementary and middle school grades and is in the process of expanding to include high school grades beginning with the 20252026 school year. Nearby school districts, including Center ISD and Timpson ISD, provide additional educational options depending on family needs and preferences.
Development and Use Potential
With extensive road frontage, significant lake frontage, and varied topography, the property offers potential for a range of uses. It is well suited for a large private homesite, recreational ranch, or possible future development subject to market conditions, zoning, and applicable lake-related easements. The size, access, and waterfront characteristics are increasingly hard to replicate in this part of East Texas.
Summary
This 88.84-acre waterfront tract on Pinkston Reservoir represents a unique opportunity to acquire a sizable, well-located piece of East Texas land with exceptional shoreline frontage, strong recreational appeal, and long-term investment potential. Its combination of timber, water, access, and location makes it suitable for a variety of uses, from a private ranch retreat to a thoughtfully planned waterfront property.

Shelby County - N/S CR 1245, Center, TX
Summary
This tract is estimated to be approximately 86.5 acres in size, with final acreage to be determined by survey. The property features rolling East Texas terrain with elevation ranging from an approximate low of 280 feet ASL to a high of approximately 370 feet ASL. The elevation change creates several areas with scenic, north-facing vista potential. The land is primarily upland and appears to be outside of any mapped flood zone. With a mix of planted pine, native regeneration, nearby large timber ownership, and proximity to the Attoyac River, this tract offers strong recreational and long-term land investment appeal.
Property Characteristics
The property consists of rolling topography with usable elevation relief that enhances both drainage and views. Timber cover includes planted pine estimated to be approximately 15 years old, along with native regeneration estimated to be approximately 10 years old across portions of the tract. The property appears to be entirely upland, with no floodplain noted, and includes a small creek or natural drainage located in the northwest portion of the property.
Two adjacent and parallel pipeline easements traverse the tract from southwest to northeast. These corridors create the primary open areas on the property and may serve as internal access routes, shooting lanes, or potential wildlife openings. An existing well site is present on the property; however, the surface equipment has been removed, and the condition or production capacity of the well is unknown.
Wildlife and Recreation
This tract is located in an area dominated by large, institutionally owned timber holdings, which contribute to limited fragmentation and consistent wildlife habitat. The proximity to the Attoyac River, located approximately one to two miles south, further enhances wildlife movement through the area. Whitetail deer, feral hogs, and small game are commonly found in this portion of East Texas. The combination of timber age diversity, elevation change, and open pipeline corridors provides good recreational hunting and outdoor use potential.
Location
The property is located at approximately 31.653, -94.365 in East Texas and lies in close proximity to the SH 7 corridor. This location offers a balance of accessibility and privacy, with convenient travel routes while remaining surrounded by rural timberland.
Utilities and Access
Access is provided by existing easements associated with the property. Electricity is believed to be available in the general area, though availability and capacity should be verified by the buyer. A former well site is present, but any future use would require verification and potential redevelopment.
