Escape to country living with this 13.5-acre farm and ranch property, featuring a cozy one-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage. Located just 9–10 miles north of I-10 and the Waelder Community, this peaceful retreat offers both convenience and serenity. With 606 feet of paved FM road frontage, the property provides easy access and plenty of visibility, making it suitable for both residential or commercial use. Inside, the cottage welcomes you with longleaf Georgia pine floors and a rustic atmosphere. Recent updates include professional leveling of the house, a brand-new front door, a fully repaired back door, and a carefully patched section of flooring using authentic longleaf pine — all adding to the home’s charm and functionality. The well-designed kitchen is perfect for everyday meals or entertaining. The land includes 13.5 acres, with 7.6 acres currently in hay production and supporting a cow/calf operation, qualifying for an agricultural tax valuation. There’s plenty of room for gardening, livestock, or simply enjoying the wide-open space. Relax on the front deck and take in the beautiful views of your land. Whether you’re seeking a residential retreat, a hobby farm, or a place to establish a business, this property offers endless possibilities. The land can be available without the house. Seller concessions are available for pasture, roof, and water. Schedule a showing today and make this versatile property yours! The land is also available without the house (which the sellers will remove) for a reduced price. Ask agent for details.
