Property Description
Located in a highly accessible Central Texas corridor between Austin, Waco, and Bryan-College Station, this 10-acre ag-exempt ranch property in NE Milam County offers a rare combination of privacy, water resources, and regional convenience. The land features scattered native trees, including large oaks, a deep pond, cross fencing, gently level terrain, and a wet weather creek, creating a scenic, storybook ranch setting ideal for hunting, livestock, or simply enjoying wide-open Central Texas land. The property benefits from dual public road access via FM 979 and CR 268, offering flexibility for future development while maintaining a quiet, private atmosphere. Water access is a standout feature of this Milam County acreage, with multiple water sources on site: a water line running along FM 979, an inactive but connectable water meter, and a private water well, in addition to the property's pond and wet weather creek. Combined with dual road frontage, these features give the land strong potential for multi-family or subdivided use, a valuable advantage in an area where water access has become an increasingly important consideration for buyers. At the heart of the property sits a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath Tilson Homes residence built in 2014, blending the warmth of a classic farmhouse with modern finishes. Custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and a vaulted ceiling create an inviting interior, while the covered front porch offers a welcoming place to slow down and enjoy the surroundings. A new roof installed in 2021 adds to the home's lasting quality. Additional improvements include a 16x24 shop with an attached 16x30 carport, a 20x30 RV awning with 14' clearance, and an insulated well house. Surrounded by larger acreage tracts, this Central Texas ranch for sale offers a peaceful setting with flexibility for a variety of uses, from a private retreat to a multi-family homestead.
