East Texas Land for Sale near Hawkins TX in Wood County with Timber & Hunting

19.984 Acres Unrestricted Timberland | FM 14 Frontage | Utilities | Wood County

Nearly 20 acres of East Texas timberland with 2,100 feet of FM 14 frontage in Wood County near Hawkins. This unrestricted tract offers productive timber in active regeneration, a small pond, a seasonal creek, and utilities available at the property road frontage—a great combination of property features at this acreage size.

Timber and Land Features

The property carries a mixed stand of hardwood and softwood timber that was partially harvested in 2015. Over the past ten years, the stand has been rebuilding volume naturally, creating younger timber stock with strong growth potential. Buyers acquire a working timber asset rather than cleared land requiring replanting. The diverse timber composition provides wildlife habitat and positions the property for future harvest income.

Water features include a pond and creek that support timber growth and attract game. The terrain is characteristic of Wood County—hilly and wooded with sandy soils suited to pine and hardwood production.

Utilities and Access

Fouke Water Systems Company provides water service to the area. Wood County Electric delivers electrical service to the property's road frontage. This established utility access eliminates the cost and delay of extending services from distant connection points—a significant advantage for buyers planning to build.

The 2,100 feet of paved FM 14 frontage provides excellent highway visibility and multiple access options. FM 14 connects to U.S. 80 and I-20, linking the property to Tyler (30 miles), Dallas (107 miles), and the regional highway network.

No Restrictions

The property carries no deed restrictions. Build a residence, hunting cabin, or agricultural structures. Run livestock alongside timber management. Establish a business with highway visibility. County jurisdiction only—no HOA approval required.

Hunting and Recreation

Located in the Pineywoods Wildlife Management Region, the property supports whitetail deer, feral hogs, squirrel, and other small game as noted by the seller. The pond and creek attract waterfowl and provide habitat diversity. Lake Fork Reservoir—one of the top bass fishing destinations in Texas—lies nearby.

Location

Situated near the Pine Mills community, north of Hawkins, west of Mineola, and south of Quitman. Hawkins ISD. Wood County offers a rural East Texas lifestyle within reasonable driving distance of Tyler's medical facilities, retail, and employment. Dallas is approximately 1 hour 40 minutes via I-20.

Texas Timber Tax Benefits

Qualifying timberland in Texas receives productivity-based property tax appraisal rather than market-value assessment, typically resulting in significant tax savings. Timber producers can also obtain an Ag/Timber Number from the Texas Comptroller for sales tax exemptions on qualifying equipment and supplies.
