Land for Sale in Ben Wheeler, Texas

Set along State Highway 64 in the heart of Van Zandt County, this exceptional 44.21-acre tract offers a rare opportunity to create a private East Texas estate surrounded by natural beauty. The land is richly wooded with a blend of towering pines and native Texas hardwoods, providing both privacy and timeless appeal, while maintaining an active agricultural exemption for timber. Gently rolling topography and excellent natural drainage enhance the usability of the property and reveal a natural basin ideally suited for development of a 3-10 acre private lake. Several thoughtfully cleared areas are already in place, offering ideal homesite locations that balance openness with the serenity of the surrounding timber. Meaningful improvements add immediate value, including underground electrical service with transformer installed and an existing water well. For those who prefer municipal services, city water is available at the road along Highway 64, allowing flexibility for future development. This property presents an exceptional canvas for a custom home, recreational retreat, or legacy holding. Combining highway accessibility with the tranquility of rolling timberland, it offers a unique blend of beauty, functionality, and long-term investment potential in one of East Texas' most desirable corridors.
