Shelby County - 8015 Farm to Market Road 2026, Timpson, TX
7-house poultry farm currently contracted with Pilgrim's Pride Corporation operating on a 9-week bird program. This well-maintained and established poultry operation is divided into two separate farm locations, offering excellent management efficiency and operational flexibility for growers and investors alike.

The 40’x450’ houses have recently been upgraded with new feeders, helping improve feed efficiency and bird performance. The second farm location includes 3–40’x400’ poultry houses situated on approximately 20 acres, providing additional production capacity and room for operation.
All poultry houses throughout both locations feature newly installed tunnel curtains designed to improve ventilation, climate control, and overall house efficiency. Each farm is fully equipped with one private water well, community water access, natural gas, Aqua Approach water systems, and backup generators to help ensure reliable day-to-day operation and minimize downtime.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced poultry grower, first-time operator, or investor seeking a proven income-producing poultry operation with several recent upgrades already completed.

Shelby County - 000 County Road 4789, Timpson, TX
Tucked just outside of Timpson in the heart of Shelby County, this 16 +/- acre tract offers a solid foundation for the buyer with a vision. The property is wooded and private, with a mix of mature hardwoods and younger pines that give it real long-term potential, both as a homesite and as a timber investment down the road. Like most natural East Texas tracts, some light selective clearing would go a long way toward opening up the land and revealing its full character. The bones are here, and with a little work and the right owner, this can turn into something special.
From a utility and access standpoint, this property is well-positioned. Electric service is already available and runs through the tract near where a homesite would naturally lie, and community water is accessible along the road, two infrastructure items that can be surprisingly hard to find on rural acreage at this price point. A small pond sits on the property and could be expanded with some dozer work into a functional fishing pond or wildlife watering hole. With over 900 feet of frontage along CR 4789, getting equipment in is easy, and you'll have plenty of flexibility on where to set your entrance. No known deed restrictions means no one is telling you what to build or how to build it.
The location adds quiet appeal without putting you out in the middle of nowhere. Timpson sits at the junction of US Highway 59, the future Interstate 69, and US Highway 84, so everyday conveniences are close without the noise and congestion that comes with them. Lake Timpson, a reservoir on Blackwater Creek, offers fishing, boating, and picnicking just a short drive away, and the larger towns of Nacogdoches, Center, and Carthage are all within reasonable range for shopping, dining, and medical needs. If you're looking for a workable piece of East Texas land with good utilities, solid frontage, and room to make it your own, this one is worth a look.

Shelby County - N/S CR 1245, Center, TX
Summary
This tract is estimated to be approximately 86.5 acres in size, with final acreage to be determined by survey. The property features rolling East Texas terrain with elevation ranging from an approximate low of 280 feet ASL to a high of approximately 370 feet ASL. The elevation change creates several areas with scenic, north-facing vista potential. The land is primarily upland and appears to be outside of any mapped flood zone. With a mix of planted pine, native regeneration, nearby large timber ownership, and proximity to the Attoyac River, this tract offers strong recreational and long-term land investment appeal.
Property Characteristics
The property consists of rolling topography with usable elevation relief that enhances both drainage and views. Timber cover includes planted pine estimated to be approximately 15 years old, along with native regeneration estimated to be approximately 10 years old across portions of the tract. The property appears to be entirely upland, with no floodplain noted, and includes a small creek or natural drainage located in the northwest portion of the property.
Two adjacent and parallel pipeline easements traverse the tract from southwest to northeast. These corridors create the primary open areas on the property and may serve as internal access routes, shooting lanes, or potential wildlife openings. An existing well site is present on the property; however, the surface equipment has been removed, and the condition or production capacity of the well is unknown.
Wildlife and Recreation
This tract is located in an area dominated by large, institutionally owned timber holdings, which contribute to limited fragmentation and consistent wildlife habitat. The proximity to the Attoyac River, located approximately one to two miles south, further enhances wildlife movement through the area. Whitetail deer, feral hogs, and small game are commonly found in this portion of East Texas. The combination of timber age diversity, elevation change, and open pipeline corridors provides good recreational hunting and outdoor use potential.
Location
The property is located at approximately 31.653, -94.365 in East Texas and lies in close proximity to the SH 7 corridor. This location offers a balance of accessibility and privacy, with convenient travel routes while remaining surrounded by rural timberland.
Utilities and Access
Access is provided by existing easements associated with the property. Electricity is believed to be available in the general area, though availability and capacity should be verified by the buyer. A former well site is present, but any future use would require verification and potential redevelopment.

Water & Wildlife Features
The propertys most prominent water feature is a scenic, tree-lined pond located in the northern portion of the tract, estimated at just over four acres when full.

Additional springs are scattered across the property in locations that could support the construction of future ponds or small water impoundments. Together, these natural water resources enhance the propertys overall utility and aesthetic appeal, while creating a rich habitat for whitetail deer, hogs, waterfowl, and other native wildlife that thrive in the mix of open pasture and wooded cover.
Fencing, Use & History
The property has good perimeter fencing and cross-fencing suitable for cattle or other livestock operations. Historically, it has been used for cattle grazing, and the established pastures, gentle slopes, and natural water sources make it well-suited for continued agricultural use. The combination of improved grassland, reliable water, and wildlife habitat also gives the property excellent potential as a multi-use ranch or recreational retreat.
Residence & Improvements

The oversized utility room is large enough to function as a home office or bunk room, offering flexibility for extended stays or guests. The home sits in a peaceful setting with views of the surrounding pastures and timber, making it a comfortable and practical base for ranch operations or weekend recreation. There is ample room for additional barns, shops, or livestock facilities on the gently sloping terrain.
Recreation & Surroundings

This unique adjacency allows convenient access to hunting, hiking, and exploration right out the back gate.

The surrounding Piney Woods landscape provides a peaceful setting for outdoor pursuits while still allowing easy access to nearby amenities in Center and surrounding communities.
