Property Description
Located just 7 miles from Jacksonville, 19 miles from Palestine, and 30 miles from the shopping and restaurants in Tyler, this 60-acre estate offers both luxury and utility. With easy access from Hwy 79, this property provides a central hub equidistant between the major metros of Dallas and Houston.
The Land
Spanning 60 acres of beautiful, gently rolling East Texas hills, this ranch property has been meticulously improved to provide more accessible acreage while offering more opportunities to view and hunt wildlife. Significant land management includes extensive brush clearing and a professional culvert system designed to optimize drainage. A pond is another highlight of the land and is important to attract wildlife. There are two hunting blinds (one conveys), and the deer are fed year-round from the 4 feeders strategically placed to offer the most coverage. The property is secured by a private, automated entrance gate that leads you down a beautiful, paved entry, which sets the tone for the quality found throughout.
The Residences & Infrastructure
This property is built to last and designed to impress. All structures are exceptionally well-maintained, fully insulated, and move-in ready.
The Main Residence: A well-thought-out 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home featuring over 4,500 square feet of comfortable, well-appointed living space. The home currently has one room dedicated as an office, which could easily be used as another bedroom, making the home a 5-bedroom instead of 4.
The original garage is fully enclosed, conditioned, and includes a work area, a bar, and a full-sized gun safe. This converted garage is yet another area for entertaining, working, or just relaxing.

Additional improvements include a hot water heater and a septic system independent of the main home. With remote-controlled roll-up bay doors on both ends, you have the clearance to drive an RV straight through.
In addition, there is a butcher/cook’s room with hot and cold water and ample storage space, as well as another room dedicated as a walk-in cooler.
Built at the same time as the barndo/shop, a convenient shed for trailer storage sits behind the shop.
