Great opportunity to own a small hunting tract or homestead site just minutes from a boat ramp on Lake Tawakoni and just south of Lone Oak TX. The tract has perimeter fencing and has has cattle in the past. There's a good deer population in the area and heavy travel along Schoolhouse Branch which dissects the tract and contains a hardwood bottom. The fishing on Lake Tawakoni is fantastic and waterfowl hunting is available as well so nothing, but dreams coming true.... Mix of open pasture and wooded roughly evenly split with mostly hardwoods along Schoolhouse Branch and junipers and hardwoods mixed throughout. Electricity provided by FEC Electric and Emory water already on site
