About this home
Property Description:
The Snake Creek Farm is ideal as a weekend retreat or primary residence for someone wanting a farm with beautiful views overlooking the countryside. The farm is situated on 66+/- acres of well-maintained land, with improved and native pastures. The Snake Creek, a year-round creek, runs east to west through the middle of the farm with +/- 1,800 feet of frontage on both sides of creek. There is also a nice pond on the north end of the property. The +/- 2,200 sf primary house has several patios overlooking the pastures and countryside. It is only 4 miles southeast of Palestine and 2 hours southeast of Downtown Dallas.
Additional Adjacent Land: There are two adjacent farms available for sale and listed/marketed by the Burgher-Ray Ranch Team. The property adjacent to the southwest totals 68 acres and the property to the north totals 52 acres.
Location:
The physical address of the property is 5734 E FM 323, and it is not in the city limits nor ETJ of Palestine. Though within easy access of the road, the house feels very private due to the long drive and thick trees blocking its view. The farm is 4 miles southeast of Palestine, 33 miles south of Athens and 2 hours southeast of Dallas. The property is primarily square in configuration with approximately 1,000 feet of frontage along the south side of FM 323, a two-lane, asphalt paved.
Improvements
House: Coming down the long-secluded tree lined/covered drive to the house on the north end of the property is the +/- 2,200 sf home that has brick exterior and composition shingles.
Through the front door you enter a large great living room with a very attractive, large wood-burning fireplace. The spacious kitchen has a double farm sink, stainless steel appliances built-in cabinets and large island adjacent to the dining area. Cooking in the main house is fueled by propane gas. Off the kitchen is a MUD room with full bath and guest bedroom.
The primary bedroom suite has a large walk-in closet and shares a bathroom with the 3rd bedroom. Most of the floors throughout the house are hardwood with tile floors in the kitchen.
The large covered back porch overlooks the fenced back yard with plenty of room for grilling and entertaining.
There is a covered carport/breezeway with concrete floor connecting the patio and house to the oversized 3 car brick garage.
Barn: Near the house is a 2,000-sf metal storage building with electrical service and two metal overhead doors.
Water:
The farm house is serviced by community water, and there is also a well and a pond near the house. The live water Snake Creek runs through the middle of the property with approximately 1,800 feet of frontage on both sides and a metal bridge provides access to the pastures and woods on the east side of the property.
Land:
The well-maintained property totals approximately 66 acres with year-round Snake Creek running through the middle of the property. There is a mixture of gently sloping, open pasture land with beautiful views overlooking the forests and trails providing habitat for the abundant wildlife in the area. The farm has perimeter fencing as well as cross fencing with 5 strand barb wire. The majority of the property has an agricultural exemption; the barn and house do not.
Recreational/Hunting: The farm has a variety of trails to hunt or observe wildlife. Due to the numerous creeks, draws and woods on the property and in the area, there is abundant wildlife. There are a number of large nearby lakes such as Lake Palestine and Richland Chambers to enjoy fishing and recreational water sports.
