115 Acres in Dublin, TX - $373,750
Folks today are finding that the stresses of city life and pressures of demanding jobs are calling for a viable form of relief. Rather than spending precious time and money for multiple visits to a therapist, try something different! First, picture yourself taking a calming ride out to 7462 County Road 242, Dublin, Texas.
Imagine stretching your legs as you emerge from the car to find yourself nestled among the wildlife. You walk along native grasses, hearing the sweet sounds of wild birds, and then notice cover for wildlife just ahead. In the underbrush, you see a fawn nursing while the doe nibbles on wild blueberries. You hear turkeys gobble. Sure enough, still unaware of your presence, a group emerges from the cover toward a row of oak trees. Farther along your hike, there are pecan trees budding out with the promise of paper shell beauties for the picking. You take in the sig...
Imagine stretching your legs as you emerge from the car to find yourself nestled among the wildlife. You walk along native grasses, hearing the sweet sounds of wild birds, and then notice cover for wildlife just ahead. In the underbrush, you see a fawn nursing while the doe nibbles on wild blueberries. You hear turkeys gobble. Sure enough, still unaware of your presence, a group emerges from the cover toward a row of oak trees. Farther along your hike, there are pecan trees budding out with the promise of paper shell beauties for the picking. You take in the sight of an early 1900s antique barn and wish youd thought to bring a camera, just to capture what youve found so far.
Theres a 3-stall implement shed, and inside is an old red Massey-Ferguson 65 tractor. You continue walking and find an old white ranch house, and suddenly your senses go into overdrive. You think you smell the competing aromas of pies, and envision wild blueberry pies cooling on the kitchen windowsill, while the pecan pies continue baking in the oven. You remember summers on the grandparents farm and yearn for some of that calm and serenity in your life. Youve even tried to explain that time to your kids, but its really hard to capture in words, isnt it?
Youre sure the white ranch house probably needs work. But camping out here with your family while working on its restoration would offer some time to talk and teach your kids a little about simple carpentry that you never seem to have the time to do in town. Theres already a septic tank and water well . . . really, so much is already in place just waiting for someone to take up the reins. What a great work project that would be! You could do some minor work and clean it up to use as a family weekend getaway, or a guys-only hunting cabin. You could use the property for raising cattle, or wildlife photography (you really enjoyed all those classes you took in college). You remember working on that old 54 Ford with your own Dad, and wonder about restoring the old Massey Ferguson to its original brilliant red. You and your youngster could then proudly enjoy it purring around the property. Not mechanically inclined? Move it to the entrance of the property with potted plants nearby, and call it yard art; so popular these days for nostalgia-effect.
But after the kids are out of college, what would you do with this property? By then, youve already identified that perfect spot on which to build your retirement home. Then you could enjoy it full-time! So, whats all included?

115 acres of barbed wire-fenced flat pasture land with;
