First Time Offered in 50 Years Escape to the quiet beauty of the Pineywoods with this exceptional country retreat in the peaceful Kildare area of East Texas. Spanning an impressive 214.6 acres of rolling terrain, the property offers approximately 70 feet of elevation change across a diverse landscape of pastureland, wildflower meadows, and wooded areas. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom brick home blends charm, functionality, and serenity-perfect for a weekend getaway, full-time homestead, working farm and ranch, or multi-use property with significant income potential. As you approach, a stately brick entryway sets a warm and welcoming tone for the residence. Step inside to find a thoughtfully designed kitchen featuring generous cabinet storage, ample countertop space, sleek black appliances, and a convenient breakfast bar ideal for entertaining or casual dining. The inviting living room is bathed in natural light from oversized windows and anchored by a striking brick fireplace with an antique mantle and built-in entertainment center, creating a cozy gathering space. A spacious bonus room adds flexibility for use as a home office, workout studio, playroom, or creative workspace. The outdoor setting is equally captivating. A covered patio and dedicated picnic pavilion create comfortable spaces for hosting friends and family, while the fenced backyard shaded by mature trees provides a tranquil place to unwind. A designated garden plot with nearby water access is ready for seasonal planting. Across the property, three ponds, multiple spring-fed creeks, open pastures, and gently sloping hills offer a picturesque and productive landscape. Cross-fencing and corrals support livestock or equestrian operations, and three metal shops with roll-up doors provide ample space for storage, equipment, or workshop needs. Accessibility is a standout feature, with approximately 1,700 feet of frontage on County Road 1896 and 4,000 feet on County Road 1898. Additional amenities include four RV hookups equipped with water, electricity, and septic systems, and three water wells located on the southern end of the property, previously used to service a deer camp. Wildlife is abundant across the acreage, making this a true hunter's paradise with a rich natural habitat. For those seeking to build, multiple scenic home sites grace the property's elevated sections, offering stunning views and seclusion. The existing residence could easily serve as a rental or guesthouse for extended family. Conveniently located approximately one hour from Shreveport, Longview, and Texarkana, the property offers easy access to shopping, dining, entertainment, and medical services. Recreational opportunities abound just a short drive away, with nearby attractions including Historic Caddo Lake, the Big Cypress River, Lake Wright Patman, and Lake O' the Pines-ideal for fishing, boating, water sports, or simply enjoying the natural beauty of East Texas.
