This remarkable property is one you don't want to miss! Welcome to this spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath home on nearly 60 serene acres in the Houston School District. With 3,240 sq. ft. of finished living space, it blends comfort, efficiency, and versatility. The main level features brand-new Andersen windows with blinds, recently installed hardwood flooring, and a convection oven, while the fully finished walkout basement doubles as a second living quarters with 2 bedrooms, a full kitchen, bath, living room, and cozy wood stove, connected by a spiral staircase that makes the space ideal for extended family or guests. Efficiency is built in with geothermal heating and cooling, LED lighting, Energy Star appliances, and a supplemental wood stove. A 10 KW solar system, fully paid off and installed by Sun Solar in 2017, keeps utilities low (averaging $40 monthly, with about $150 for winter months) while sending excess energy back to the grid. The home is serviced by its own well and septic system, with no propane required.

The land also includes fenced pasture, pipe working pens, three ponds (two spring fed), a wet-weather creek, and perimeter fencing for livestock. Outbuildings include an insulated 21x29 shop with lean-to and workbenches, plus an older machine shed currently used for firewood storage.
