Property Description
Welcome to 950 Farm To Market Road 486, Thorndale, TX. Set on nearly 11 acres of pristine land, this property provides the perfect backdrop for a life lived at a slower, more intentional pace. The heart of the property is a spacious main residence boasting 3,200 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. With four bedrooms and two bathrooms, each room features a generous footprint, ensuring everyone has room to breathe. Beyond the main home, the property offers incredible versatility with a charming secondary residence. Featuring three bedrooms, two baths, and a large open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area, this mother-in-law floor plan is perfectly suited for multi-generational living, hosting guests, or even a business location. What truly sets this property apart is the owner's dedicated commitment to the environment. Understanding that synthetic fertilizers & pesticides can severely disrupt the balance of our local ecosystem, the owner has consciously chosen to forego these treatments entirely. The land is managed to encourage native plants, wild grasses, and natural water sources to thrive. The result is a vibrant, organic sanctuary that welcomes and supports vital pollinators like butterflies and bees. For those dreaming of a self-sufficient lifestyle, this property is ready for your vision. Outdoor facilities include a sturdy horse barn, a goat pen, and a chicken coop. With secondary storage, a functional well house, and a convenient shop attached to the horse shed, you have everything you need to start your homesteading journey on day one. Nestled in the quiet, rolling landscape of Thorndale, you gain the benefit of absolute privacy and peace, all while remaining just a short drive from the town's warm community spirit, local shops, and excellent schools. Come see for yourself the harmony of rural peace and modern convenience. Please note that showings require 48 hours' notice.
