2301 Private Road 1179Celeste, TX 75423Price: $2,780,000

Welcome to a rare +-231.65 acre legacy ranch tucked into the rolling countryside of Hunt County. Located 60 miles northeast of Downtown Dallas, just 9 miles northwest of Greenville, and 2.5 miles south of Celeste with +-2680 feet of paved FM 903 frontage and secondary access from US 69 via Private Road 1179. This property makes it the perfect place for a dream home, future development, or recreational use. Rolling open pastures and grazing meadows stretch beneath scattered oaks, pecans, elms, hackberries, cottonwoods, and walnuts, while the wooded bottom of the scenic Cowleech Fork of the Sabine Creek winds along the western and northern boundaries with +-3200 feet of frontage. Elevations rise from the Sabine to 641 feet in the northwest, creating numerous elevated building sites with sweeping country views above the floodplain. Water is the star of the show. The ranch features three spectacular lakes measuring approximately 4.2, 3.6, and 2.1 surface acres, plus a few natural ponds scattered throughout. Abundant wildlife including white tailed deer, dove, bob white quail, and wild hogs make this a true weekend getaway for hunting, fishing, and enjoying the outdoors. The ranch is ready for cattle, with approximately 87% in cleared improved pasture with coastal Bermuda and native grasses. A +-2400 square foot insulated corrugated metal shop built in 2011 features a concrete slab foundation, steel frame, electricity, water, standard entry door, roll up doors, approximately 16-foot eave height, and 20-foot peak height. A second +-2400 square foot older wood frame barn and a set of steel pipe cattle pens round out the working improvements. Two phase electric power and rural water from Caddo Basin SUD are already in place. Easy access to Greenville and Celeste puts shopping, dining, and schools within comfortable reach, while DFW's continued population growth keeps long term land values on a strong upward trajectory. Seller is open to subdivision.
