Escape to your own private East Texas retreat with this beautiful 4.2 acre property in Cherokee County, directly bordering I.D. Fairchild State Forest. This heavily wooded tract features a mature stand of trees, creating a scenic woodland setting and ideal habitat for abundant wildlife. Deer, wild hogs, squirrels, and numerous bird species frequently roam the area, making this an outstanding property for hunting, wildlife watching, camping, and outdoor recreation. Accessed from a Forest Service road, the property offers privacy with a gated entrance separating it from the adjoining state forest. Property boundaries have been clearly marked around the perimeter for easy identification. The tract includes a small older cabin that could be restored into a hunting camp, weekend getaway, or rustic shelter. A hand-curbed well provides a reliable source of clean water, and an additional storage shed offers room for tools, equipment, and outdoor gear. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the property's proximity to the Neches River, located less than three miles away, providing opportunities for fishing, kayaking and exploring one of East Texas' most scenic waterways.

Whether you're seeking a recreational getaway, hunting property, investment tract, this unique East Texas property offers direct access to thousands of acres of adjoining forestland, abundant wildlife and the privacy that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
