This 9 acres of land features 600-feet of frontage on the Tres Palacios River, a "barndominium" style house, and a detached metal shop that is 1800 SF. Owner had 800 yards of clay put in for a future house site and installed a brand new aerobic septic system. The well is 440-foot deep. Large mature pecans and oaks and plenty of cleared grassy area too. There is a dock on the river, with some trails. Home was meant to be a "mother-in-law" space, with the raised area ready to build your own house if you want something more grand. Plenty of space here for hunting, fishing, small scale farming with good riverbottom soil. The shop has skylights, large roll up doors, 200 amp service, includes an air compressor and is plumbed for a restroom. The metal house is made of steel, has a good size front room, a 12x40' front porch, and even has a "safe room" in the back with a security system in place. A deep ravine runs along the south side of the land, providing good drainage to this land.
