30.83 Acres W/ Hwy 79 Frontage

Located along Highway 79 in Rockdale, this 30.83-acre tract offers a hard-to-find combination of highway frontage, city utilities, multiple points of access, and highly usable land in one of Central Texas’ growing corridors.

The property is flat, level, mostly cleared, and fenced, making nearly the entire tract usable from day one. Historically, the property has been used for hay production and cattle grazing, and an agricultural exemption is currently in place. That existing use and exemption help keep the holding costs low for an investor or developer who may want to purchase now and hold the property as the surrounding area continues to grow.

Access is another major advantage. The property has frontage and access along Highway 79, along with additional access from E Belton Avenue along the back side of the tract. This creates the potential for a true pass-through layout and provides flexibility when planning future development, internal roads, or separate uses across the property.

The infrastructure is already nearby. City water and sewer are available in the area, and power lines run along Highway 79, providing convenient access to electricity. Combined with the property's level topography and cleared acreage, these features could help simplify future site planning and development.

Visibility and traffic are also strong. Highway 79 carries approximately 8,000 vehicles per day in this area, giving the property meaningful exposure for commercial users. The combination of highway frontage, traffic, utilities, power, and multiple access points creates potential for a wide range of commercial and mixed-use concepts.

Location adds to that viability. The property sits less than 1/2 mile from the intersection of Highway 79 and Highway 77, providing easy north/south access toward Waco and surrounding markets, while Highway 79 provides direct east/west connectivity. Sandow Lakes is just down Highway 79, with Taylor and the Samsung semiconductor development to the west, Bryan/College Station to the east, and convenient connections to the I-35 corridor.

With more than 30 acres to work with, there is plenty of room to think beyond a single use. Highway frontage could lend itself well to retail, restaurant, office, or other commercial uses, while the balance of the property could accommodate warehouse, industrial flex space, office/warehouse combinations, or other complementary uses. Its layout and dual access also create the potential to divide the property into multiple development areas over time.

There is currently an existing home on the property, along with several outbuildings and sheds, providing immediate utility while the property continues in agricultural use or plans for future development are put together.

Whether the goal is to develop now or buy and hold, this 30.83-acre tract offers a strong combination of visibility, access, infrastructure, low carrying costs, and flexibility along the Highway 79 corridor in Rockdale.
