Description

Discover a beautiful 24.79-acre property in Eastland County's historic Ellison Springs area, just 3 miles northeast of Gorman. With frontage on FM 8 and County Road 422, this versatile tract combines mature timber, abundant wildlife habitat, varied terrain, excellent access, and valuable improvements already in place-giving you a head start on building your dream home, barndominium, or country retreat.
The infrastructure is in, the home base is established, and the land is ready for your vision. Skip many of the costly first steps of developing raw acreage and start planning your new country home. Properties offering this combination of manageable acreage, mature trees, wildlife, paved FM road frontage, a water well, septic system, substantial underground electrical service, and an established home base are difficult to find.
One of the biggest advantages of this property is the extensive infrastructure already in place. Improvements include new 400 AMP underground electrical service, a new water well, and a new septic system. The property also features a well house complete with an enclosed 3,000-gallon water storage tank, pressure pump, pressure tank, and water filtration system, providing an established water supply setup for the property. A caliche driveway has been installed from FM 8 to the established home base, providing convenient all-weather access.
A substantial 60x50 red-iron structure is currently used as a covered motor home base. Constructed with red-iron I-beams and 16' sidewalls, the structure was designed with the owner's future 2-story home in mind. Beneath the covered structure is a 50 AMP RV hookup complete with water and septic connections, offering a convenient setup for RV use while enjoying the property or planning future improvements. The seller also has home plans available for an interested buyer. Continue using the structure for RV or equipment storage, or explore incorporating it into your future country home or barndominium. With its substantial size, durable construction, and existing infrastructure, this structure offers exciting possibilities and could potentially serve as the framework for a future home. Use it as it is while you build, convert it to fit your needs, or incorporate it into your future improvements.
Adding to the property's natural beauty is a scenic pond or stock tank situated near the established homesite, creating an attractive setting for a future country home. Imagine enjoying peaceful mornings overlooking the water, surrounded by mature trees and the sights and sounds of country living.
Beyond the improvements, the land itself has plenty to offer. The property is heavily wooded with mature hardwoods, predominantly Post Oaks, and native grasses, providing privacy, shade, and excellent wildlife habitat. Numerous game trails have been observed throughout the acreage, and a scenic ravine creates a natural travel corridor for whitetail deer, turkey, feral hogs, and migratory birds.
Approximately 30 feet of elevation change gives the property character and creates an attractive rolling landscape with potential homesite opportunities. Sandy loam soils, mature trees, native cover, the scenic pond, and natural ravine provide the classic Texas country setting buyers
seek. Ellison Spring Branch lies just north of the property, further enhancing the natural character of the area.
With both FM 8 and CR 422 frontage, the property offers excellent accessibility and
flexibility. Whether you're searching for a permanent country residence, recreational
getaway, hunting property, or manageable acreage investment, this tract provides a rare
combination of land and infrastructure.
Located approximately 20 miles south of Eastland & I-20, 27 miles west of Stephenville and
