Wilson Ranch offers approximately 500± acres of rolling East Texas land with a premium mix of pasture, mature timber, lake, ponds, and well-planned improvements. With private access and Highway 59 frontage, the property is ideal for a private homestead, hunting and fishing retreat, cattle or horses, recreational use, or commercial operation.
The ranch includes roughly 240 acres of wooded habitat and a stunning 19.6-acre managed lake that reaches 32 ft. deep and is stocked with trophy-sized Camelot Bell Bass. Two piers provide easy access for fishing, and an 800 ft. zipline begins 40 ft. above the water for a unique experience. Additional water features include a 7-acre pond, creek, and multiple small ponds. Wildlife is abundant—whitetail deer, birds, bobcats, and more. The remaining acreage offers open pasture, the homesite, and 35–40 acres of low marsh with excellent potential for waterfowl habitat.
The custom 5,700 sq ft., two-story home is built into a hillside, allowing entry from either level. It features 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, 2 living and 2 dining areas, 2 fireplaces, and 2 wet bars. Antique brick, unique antique light fixtures, and rock fireplaces add warmth and character. A covered balcony with a hot tub delivers long-range views over the lake and hills and a peaceful place to unwind.
Additional improvements include an 60x40 four-bay shop with office, half bath, and utility sink, with an oversized 16 ft. RV bay door and multiple electric bay doors including a drive-through. The ranch also offers cattle corrals, chute, barn structure, barbed wire fencing, an internet tower, cameras on the home exterior and trails, and a 30 ft. maintained perimeter road for security and access. Solar panels, a spring-fed well, and a whole-house generator add partial energy independence. Oilfield traffic enters from a separate back entrance.
Wilson Ranch combines land diversity, water features, scenic views, privacy, and convenience—an exceptional East Texas offering.
