Description
“If ever I should wish for a retreat whither I might steal from the world and its distractions, and dream quietly away the remnant of a troubled life, I know of none more promising than this little valley. This sequestered glen has long been known by the name of Sleepy Holly.” This quote by Washington Irving hangs on the wall of this private retreat and is how this 54.28 acres in Henderson, TX got it’s name! As soon as you step foot on this breathtaking piece of property, you’ll see why. Tucked away in the heart of East Texas off FM-840, you’ll find the outdoorsman’s paradise. This property consists of 27 acres of NATIVE PASTURELAND and 27.28 acres of MIXED TIMBER along with a WELL-MAINTAINED, STOCKED POND and 792 square foot cabin! The luscious, green pasture encompasses the heavily wooded area, pond, and refuge place. The glistening pond will take your breath away as it greets you like a warm, gentle kiss. The cabin is around the bend and up the hill overlooking the pond. It can be utilized as a hunting lodge! If that’s not your cup of tea, you can build something from the ground up and stay in the cabin in the meantime. Regardless of your vision, this one-size-fits-all sanctuary is set apart! No other property can hold a candle to what it has to offer. Whether you’re a hunting/fishing enthusiast dedicated to bringing home the bacon, a future homesteader wanting to become self-sustainable and detached from society, a cattle rancher, farmer, outdoorsman, love of nature, or simply want to create something lasting for the generations to come...these 54.28 acres have been loved, nurtured, and tended to for many years! “Sleepy Hollow” has witnessed (and contributed to) the raising of livestock, children, and grandchildren, and it’s patiently waiting in all its splendor for new owners to pick up the pen, turn the page, and continue writing the story already being told for generations to come.
