What sets this parcel apart is scale and natural variety: 163 contiguous acres of DeWitt County timberland, two ponds and a seasonal creek that thread the property, creating private pockets for hunting, fishing and quiet outdoor recreation. Approached by easement off County Road 441, the tract is defined by a series of gated entries that reinforce its secluded, working-ranch character.
A 1,272-square-foot wood-frame cabin (2015) sits on the property and provides rustic, comfortable shelter for weekend stays. The cabin is serviceable with basic septic, a private well and electric available—ideal as a weekend retreat while you plan longer-term upgrades. The metal roof and good overall condition reflect practical maintenance; prospective buyers should note the cabin currently lacks modern HVAC systems and may require infrastructure work for year-round living.
The land itself is a blend of mature hardwoods and open draws, with two ponds and a seasonal creek that create habitat diversity and year-round interest. Rolling topography and accessible interior roads make this tract workable for grazing, managed timber, or recreational uses. The property's varied cover supports wildlife and offers multiple stands for hunting, while the ponds provide on-site fishing and waterfowl opportunities.
Location balances solitude with access: the property sits roughly 10 miles from downtown Yoakum and about 35 miles from Victoria, giving owners a short drive to groceries, services and regional markets while retaining true country privacy. Zoned AG by DeWitt County, allowed uses include agriculture, recreational and limited residential development—making this appropriate for an investor, rancher, or buyer seeking a long-term land asset.
Buyers should conduct standard due diligence: confirm easement rights and gate access, assess the cabin’s utilities and condition for full-time habitation, and verify permitted uses with county authorities. With steady regional appreciation in agricultural values and a recent valuation range between $600,000 and $700,000, this property represents a flexible opportunity for anyone seeking acreage with immediate on-site water features and a usable cabin.
This property sits in rural DeWitt County, where landscapes are shaped by family farms, timber tracts and quiet country roads. Life here centers on outdoor pursuits—hunting, fishing and ranching—while small-town Yoakum (about 10 miles away) supplies everyday conveniences, schools and community events. Regional centers, including Victoria, are within a manageable drive for expanded shopping, healthcare, and services. The neighborhood is characterized by low-density development, agricultural neighbors, and a pace of life tailored to owners seeking privacy and outdoor access.
DeWitt County's market for large agricultural tracts like this one is steady rather than frenetic. Current market metrics show roughly six months of inventory and an average days-on-market near 90 days—signals of a balanced market where sellers receive interest but buyers have time to perform due diligence. Agricultural land values in the area have appreciated about 3% in the past year and roughly 15% over five years, reflecting modest but consistent demand for timber, pasture and recreational acreage. Median sale prices in the broader area hover near $300,000, but scale, water, and improvements push 100+ acre parcels into a higher bracket; this property’s estimated valuation range of $600,000–$700,000 (midpoint $650,000) aligns with those premiums. For buyers focused on diversification, timber value, or recreational use, now is a reasonable entry point—inventory is available, comparables are limited, and financing options for agricultural acreage remain accessible. Sellers benefit from a measured pool of qualified buyers; however, unique attributes like on-site ponds and a cabin can shorten marketing time when paired with clear access and verified easement terms.
