TBD FM 2231, Breckenridge, TX 76424 - Stephens County

Live Oak Lookout stretches across 242.9 acres of prime Texas terrain in Stephens County, just a short, scenic drive from Breckenridge and Hubbard Creek Lake. As you approach the property along Farm-to-Market Road 2231, the scenery quickly transforms from a lush mesquite and native grasses bottom to a striking elevated terrain. This impressive fifty-foot elevation change, adorned with magnificent live oaks, presents a remarkable opportunity for a building site conveniently located near the main road. This prime location offers fantastic views to the east overlooking the town of Breckenridge, while ensuring a sense of privacy. Beyond this idyllic building spot, the land is teeming with towering hardwoods and bull mesquite trees, gently rolling into deep draws, which enhance the property’s charm and provide excellent wildlife habitats. Additionally, the ranch is thoughtfully cross-fenced into two main pastures, featuring a small set of working pens conveniently positioned off the main road. Live Oak Lookout's picturesque landscape features five ponds. Currently, three are primed for cleaning and expansion, while the remaining two continue to offer essential water resources for the vibrant local wildlife.

AGENT COMMENTS: Live Oak Lookout offers a blank canvas for those looking to customize their forever home in a serene and secluded setting, while still having easy access to town conveniences. Properties like this, in such a prime location, are rare. The FM road frontage provides convenient access, yet the ranch maintains an untouched feel.
