    Description

    18+ acres of ag-exempt, unrestricted land located in the Georgetown ETJ, positioned just off I-35 Service Road and near FM 972. Access is provided via the end of CR 196, followed by a short deeded easement leading to the property.

    The tract is situated within an Opportunity Zone, offering potential tax advantages for qualified buyers. Conveniently located near the new Lowe’s and Costco, the property also falls within Georgetown ISD.

    Currently under agricultural valuation, the exemption is maintained through active hay production, with the land planted in hay grazer. Utilities are nearby, with PEC electric and Atmos gas available on an adjacent property. According to the seller, Jonah Water is located in a neighboring community across the creek.

    The property is partially fenced, including a high fence along the western boundary. A spring-fed creek, identified as a tributary of Berry Creek, adds natural character and water features to the land.

    This property has been held in the same family since 1940, presenting a rare opportunity to acquire a well-located tract with strong investment, recreational, or future development potential.
