About this home

Located approximately 10 miles north of Merkel, Texas, this 80 acre ranchette offers an excellent opportunity to build your dream home, establish a weekend retreat, or enjoy a private recreational property. With approximately 75 feet of elevation change, the property features an elevated homesite offering panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and beautiful West Texas sunsets. One of the property's greatest advantages is the existing infrastructure. Electricity has been extended to the hilltop homesite, where a previous manufactured home was located. A two tank septic system is already installed at this location, along with an RV cover and RV pad, providing a convenient starting point for a future residence or weekend getaway. Water resources include an installed Sun Water meter located along County Road 452, west of the property entrance and outside the perimeter fence. Water service is currently turned off, but an existing water line extends from the meter up the hill to the RV pad. The property also features two water wells, approximately 60 to 80 feet deep, with reported production of 15 gallons per minute. Both wells are reported to be operational, although electricity is currently disconnected and will need to be restored to operate the pumps. Additional improvements include a barn and an older storage unit, both of which will convey with the property. The seller plans to remove the collapsed shed near the front entrance. The land features rolling terrain, a stock pond, and perimeter barbed wire fencing in fair condition. The property currently carries an agricultural valuation, with 2026 property taxes of just $235. Whether you are looking for a weekend hunting getaway, a place to park your RV, or a location to build a custom home overlooking the countryside, this property offers acreage, views, water resources, and existing infrastructure. Seller reserves all owned mineral interests. No seller owned minerals will convey.
