Little Rocky Creek Ranch

Posted on: May 16th, 2024 by Justin Witt

Steeped in the historic realm of Independence Texas, and a stones throw from where Sam Houston was baptized in Little Rocky Creek, sits this diverse 67 +/- acre ranch. You cannot help but feel the same blissful ambiance the early settlers experienced as they set their aims towards a new life in Texas. Little Rocky Creek Ranch has been in the same family for the last 50 years and is now ready for the next visionary steward to nurture the serene landscape.
The land is a true gem with diversity and ample room for improvements. Showcased by a 5 +/- acre pond, the features of this ranch include a great mix of trees and rolling pastures. Established trees have been planted along the Northern and Eastern edge of the property to aid in seclusion from neighbors. Among the rolling topography you will find another, smaller, pond that sits in front of a fantastic build site on the top of a hill.

In addition to its several water features, this property features an incredible tree lined driveway, as well as road frontage to both Sam Houston Rd and Little Rocky Rd. It also has 3 water wells, electric, and septic already in place.
