A 1.25-acre pond serves as a central feature and is supported by a strong 45 GPM well, offering a dependable water source for both recreational use and wildlife. The clear water and consistent supply enhance both the functionality and enjoyment of the property. Wildlife is abundant and consistent with the area, including whitetail deer, Rio Grande turkey, feral hogs, dove, ducks, coyotes, and bobcats, providing year-round hunting and outdoor opportunities. With county road access and no existing improvements, the property is ready to be taken in any direction, whether kept simple as a weekend place or further developed into a more permanent setup. The property is 1.5 hours to Houston, 2 hours to Austin, 2 hours to San Antonio, and 1 hour to Victoria.
