This expansive 105.48-acre lot is a remarkable piece of Texas history, once owned by the Buffalo Bayou,
Brazos and Colorado Railroad Company (BBB&CRR), the pioneer railroad in Texas that completed its line in
1853, heralding the dawn of the railroad age in the state and being the second such line west of the
Mississippi River. This land, rich with historical significance, is now poised for its next chapter. It offers
agricultural exemptions, ensuring low property taxes and eligibility for 1031 exchanges. It includes city
water and electricity, and extensive frontage along Highway 59 N, currently under construction to become
the new Highway 69 relief route, expected to drive traffic from Houston to Lufkin. This provides enormous
potential for both development and farming.
Presently, the acreage is lush with Bahia Hay, supported by Piney Creek and on-site ponds. The property
includes a 1,838-square-foot, two-bedroom, one-bath single-family home, perfect for a comfortable rural
lifestyle, as well as a large metal barn, ideal for agricultural or storage needs. This unique blend of historical
legacy and modern prospects makes it an exceptional opportunity for those looking to invest in a property
with both a rich past and a promising future.
