This is an investment that you can enjoy as a full or part time retreat. Whether you farm the land yourself or lease it to one of the nearby farmers, you have the ability to make money while keeping the ag exemption to keep your real estate taxes low. Equestrian opportunities are also possible due to the existing fields of coastal Bermuda, sandy loam soil (great for horses) and location in the middle of the North Texas horse country. But the real opportunity is the location in the path of growth for the growing north Texas population growth. Someday in the near future, the opportunity to develop the property with single-family homes will be an option.
