Recreational Land with Home for Sale in Yoakum, Texas
8142 FM 1447, Yoakum, TX 77995
If you've been dreaming of trading city noise for open space and quiet country living-without giving up modern comforts-this beautiful, less-than-5-year-old barndominium is the perfect fit. Offering 1,836 sq ft of comfortable living space plus an 816 sq ft garage/shop (per DeWitt CAD), this home features 2 bedrooms and a flexible bonus room ideal for a home office, guest space, or hobby room. The home sits on 2 acres of homesteaded land with an additional 13 acres of ag-exempt acreage, giving you room to breathe while helping keep property taxes low. Built with efficiency in mind, it's well insulated with average electric bills under $200 per month. The annual homeowners' insurance is just $1,728. Inside, you'll love the open-concept design that feels bright, welcoming, and easy to live in. The triangle kitchen is a cook's dream and features concrete countertops, bar seating at the island, generous storage, and a unique light fixture crafted from a log sourced on the property-adding just the right touch of country charm. The primary suite offers a spacious walk-in shower and dual sinks, while the hall bath includes a relaxing soaking tub. Storage spans the entire home, with thoughtful details throughout. Outside is where the country lifestyle truly shines. Covered front and back patios are perfect for morning coffee or evening sunsets. Cool off in the above-ground pool, enjoy fishing in the stocked pond, or simply watch the abundant wildlife. A long, winding driveway through the trees creates total privacy-you won't see the road or neighboring homes. Extras include RV hookups with 50-amp electric, septic, and water, materials on site for a future carport or pole barn, and Viasat satellite internet to keep you connected. Move-in ready and peaceful, this property offers the space, privacy, and slower pace city buyers are looking for-while still enjoying modern living.
