The land offers three ponds (two stocked), cross-fencing for livestock, an on-site water well, and 1,100 ft of FM 157 frontage. The rear pond spans over an acre and reaches depths of 25+ feet. Mountain Peak SUD provides water service.

Whether you’re seeking a working ranch, a multi-residential retreat, a long-term investment, or a prime development site, this property offers unmatched versatility and future potential—strengthened by ongoing improvements and newly opened acreage.
