Ideally located between Dallas & Houston, this nearly 38 acre hilltop retreat offers privacy, peace, & long-term enjoyment. Set behind an automatic gate, the custom-built stone home sits high on a hill near the back of the property. A scenic pond enhances the setting & attracts wildlife. Inside, warm pine interiors & real wood floors create a timeless, welcoming atmosphere. The open living & kitchen space is centered around a wood-burning fireplace, ideal for relaxed gatherings. A dedicated office supports remote work, while upstairs bonus rooms provide flexible space for guests, hobbies, or convenient storage. Outdoors, the land invites fishing, walking, & quiet evenings under big open skies. A shop with utilities, pole barn, livestock well, fenced dog area, & chicken coop add functionality without demanding full use. Well suited for a recreational escape, retirement living, or a legacy hold, this property offers space to breathe, room to roam, & a slower pace of life. A must see!
