Great location for development on FM 989/S Kings Hwy. 16.18+/- acres with 515'+/- Road Frontage. There is 340' of elevation with mostly old growth timber. Several acres could be made into pasture again. There appears to be a small amount of frontage possibly on the backside of the property where Waterworks Rd ends (this will need to be confirmed). This property doesn't have a current survey.
Macedonia-Eylau Utility District is close. Wake Village is within a mile from this property. This could be a good opportunity for a housing development or commercial location. Liberty-Eylau ISD.
