Breathe deep—here’s your slice of wide-open Texas with 8.3+ acres with your own private and secluded Brazos River access, tucked away just outside the Simonton city limits. No HOA, unrestricted, and plenty of room to spread out. A partially complete 2,147 s/f, 3-BR/2-bath ranch-style home sits high above Base Flood Elevation—lifted after Harvey and fully gutted, ready for someone to bring it to life. Owners have added a newer aerobic septic system, fresh shingles on the roof, a wide concrete drive with extra parking, and a massive 40’x60’ metal building on slab with 5 oversized roll-up doors—perfect for trucks, tractors, or tools. There’s even an old pool out back (condition unknown). Towering trees, quiet skies, and the mighty Brazos flowing just beyond the treeline. Quick access to I-10 and Westpark Tollway. Whether you're looking for a rural homesite, weekend project, live/work setup, or a place to breathe and build, this is rare land with a head start. LOW TAXES!

8 Acres on the river, approximately, true acreage may be more due to many years of Brazos River accretion. Only a survey could tell for sure. This property is being marketed and sold as Land Value Only – the current structures may or may not be useful to the next owner, it’s being sold as-is and as Land Value only, and priced accordingly. This could be a real bonus, and a great opportunity, if the buyer chooses to utilize the existing structure instead of building new, many options are on the table. See the videos and virtual tours for many more details. Water Well already in place. Great opportunity for someone looking to build in a great community with little restrictions in place. It’s in the Floodway so the county will require a minimum height on your living structure. This land lies in Fort Bend County unincorporated. Right on the border of the Simonton city limits and adjacent to the Valley Lodge subdivision. No time limit to build, hold it until you’re ready. No Mobile Homes
