The 125-acre Morrison Farm near Athens, Texas, in Henderson County, is for sale for the first time. This legacy property has been in the same family for 81 years. The original 212-acre homestead was bought by the current owner’s father in 1943. The farm was later divided into several parcels and passed down to the Morrison heirs. The farm for sale is found halfway between Brownsboro, Texas, and Athens, Texas, just south of the town of Murchison, Texas. The surrounding area where the farm for sale is found is made up of similar size farms and ranches. Production on the farm includes a 10-acre pecan orchard with 165 producing pecan trees. The orchard is irrigated from a 400-foot deep water well, sprinkling each tree. 15 acres of hay meadow is currently leased to the adjoining land owner for an annual fee. Additional areas of pasture land could be used for livestock grazing or turned into hay production. A small spring-fed pond at the front of the property could be used for livestock water. There is a 30 X 50 metal building with concrete flooring for equipment storage and a workshop area. There is a separate hay storage barn with cattle feeding troughs. A large portion of the land is covered with hardwood and pine timber, creating great wildlife habitat.
For the hunters, there are Whitetail Deer, Feral Pigs, Squirrels, and other varmints. The home sits on a hill overlooking a valley that could be a potential lake site. The well-kept Manufactured Home has 2432 square feet heated and cooled with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a formal living room, a formal dining room, a breakfast room, a large kitchen, and a family room. There are two outbuildings, one for lawn equipment and one for pecan cracking and processing. The historical Black Jack Cemetery is located on the property, fenced off from the farm, and maintained very well. Access to the cemetery is limited to specific day hours with an easement through the farm. Find Your Freedom!
