About This Lot

CHEAP LAND WITH SPRINGS, MILES OF TRAILS, LARGE CREEK, ABUNDANT GAME, AND EXCELLENT SECLUSION OUTSIDE CENTER TX! EXCELLENT HUNTING RANCH PROPERTY!

It’s rare to find a piece of land in East Texas that truly stops you in your tracks. This 172 acre tract on Bull Pine Ridge is one of those few. From the moment you step on the property, it’s clear you’re standing on something different—something wild and special.

This land is a study in contrast and diversity. Roughly 50 Acres of the property is blanketed in a towering forest of ancient hardwoods and pines, some over 100 years old. One pine in particular measures nearly 4 feet in diameter—one of the largest we have ever seen on a private piece of land.

Running through the middle of the tract are two natural spring heads, shaded by massive timber and nestled in a natural ravine that seems hand-carved for a spring-fed lake buildout. The topography, flow, and clarity make this one of those once-in-a-lifetime water features—a blank canvas to create what many consider the pinnacle feature for private land in Texas: a cool, crystal-clear, spring-fed lake. The high point of the property, and the obvious building site, is located in the front ~20 acres, offering elevated views of the spring area, while also being situated off the fully rocked interior road, saving tens of thousands in road cost!

At the back of the property lies Brushy Creek, a seasonal creek with a massive watershed that flows strong nearly 10 months of the year. Its banks are lined with bluffs, cypress knees, ferns, and moss-covered timber—creating an “old growth” feel that is virtually nonexistent in modern East Texas. A rock slate ridge runs up to the creek, protecting the property from floodplain impacts while maintaining a gentle enough slope to allow for park-like underbrushing that showcases the creek like a nature preserve.

The wildlife here is exceptional. A quick map zoom reveals thousands of acres of contiguous timberland across the creek and surrounding countryside. The area’s low residential pressure and sparse population contribute to an uncommonly high game population. Game sign is everywhere—from worn trails to creekside bedding areas. Whether you're a hunter or simply want to enjoy watching whitetail deer move through the timber, this tract offers the ecological diversity and natural seclusion that attracts abundant wildlife. This property truly would make a first class hunting ranch.

When it comes to location, it doesn’t get much better. The property is tucked away in the quiet, untouched countryside just 10 minutes from Center, TX, and surrounded by large ranches and rolling terrain. It’s only 45 minutes from historic Nacogdoches—the oldest town in Texas—with its college-town energy, cultural charm, and brick-lined downtown.

Recreational opportunities abound. Toledo Bend Reservoir, a 100,000+ acre destination for world-class fishing and boating, is less than 15 minutes away. The 100,000+ acre Sabine National Forest and the North Toledo Bend Wildlife Management Area are both nearby, with the Sabine River—renowned for duck hunting and catfishing—just 8 minutes up the road. This region is a recreational hotbed where you could spend a lifetime and still not run out of things to do.

With power at the road, no floodplain, no restrictions, this tract offers both usability and seclusion.

And perhaps most notably, the price! You’ll be hard-pressed to find land in East Texas with this level of timber, water, topography, and privacy at this price point.

This is the kind of land people spend decades looking for—a place with untouched natural beauty and the potential to become something truly special. Opportunities like this don’t sit long, so call now and come see it for yourself.
