    About this House

    LOCATION • VIEWS • PRIVACY • PEACE & TRANQUILITY! Surrounded by multi-million-dollar acreage estates, this truly unique property offers nearly TWO ACRES, an incredible ELEVATED SETTING, an abundance of mature trees and some of the most REMARKABLE & STUNNING VIEWS you'll find anywhere in Rockwall County. The opportunity here is all about LOCATION & POTENTIAL. Bring the existing home back to life with a substantial renovation, or follow the vision of the current owners, who purchased the property with plans to remove the existing home and build a spectacular new estate designed to take full advantage of this exceptional setting and breathtaking views. The established homesite is what makes this property so difficult to duplicate—mature trees, elevation, privacy, surrounding estate properties and a homesite that's already in place. For someone looking to build a $2.5M+ custom estate, this may be the proverbial NEEDLE IN THE HAYSTACK: small-acreage building site offering a country setting while remaining convenient to Heath and Rockwall. The existing home is approximately 40 years old and is currently livable, but buyers should understand that this is a PROJECT PROPERTY. While some may choose to renovate, the home needs significant updating and improvements and may require foundation repairs and other work. The photos show the property's tremendous character and potential, but an in-person visit will provide a much better understanding of the home's current condition. Property lines DO NOT follow the existing fence lines—survey available. Bring your architect, builder and imagination and come experience the views in person. Opportunities like this are increasingly difficult to find. NO HOA • NO CITY TAXES • NEARLY 2 ACRES • MATURE TREES • INCREDIBLE ELEVATION & VIEWS

      "Pro USA neighborhood with many Veterans and proud Americans. Neighborhood crawfish broil. Our own parade."
    • Txjulieb
      "Traffic is horrible. Too many people and not enough ways out of town. Lights need to be longer and tickets need to be given for those who run red lights and don’t follow turn only lanes especially up by Snuffers trying to get on the highway to go west."
    • Melanie Lam
      "Very dog friendly! Great parks and trails to walk your dog. Several dog parks as well. The best one is at Harry Myers park"

    • Gordon Jordan
      "Normal. Usually busy on weekends beginning on Friday’s at noon. The interstate that runs through the community is increasingly busier each year. However! TxDoT is adding additional lanes in both directions that should alleviate the congestion."
    • Vilma C.

    • Johnpaul.cullinane
      "Awesome community where everyone rallies around each other and celebrates successes. Feel very safe, community events in Downtown or by the water...if you grew up on the east coast or west coast, this will be the only area that feels like home in the DFW area!"
