With 606 feet of paved FM road frontage, the property provides easy access and plenty of visibility, making it suitable for both residential or commercial use. Inside, the cottage welcomes you with longleaf Georgia pine floors and a rustic atmosphere. Recent updates include professional leveling of the house, a brand-new front door, a fully repaired back door, and a carefully patched section of flooring using authentic longleaf pine — all adding to the home’s charm and functionality. The well-designed kitchen is perfect for everyday meals or entertaining. The land includes 13.5 acres, with 7.6 acres currently in hay production and supporting a cow/calf operation, qualifying for an agricultural tax valuation.
