32 Acres in Hemphill, TX - $149,100

This property feels like it has been preserved through time—a 32-acre stretch of pure East Texas forest teeming with life, water, and possibility. Tucked away in the quiet, ranch-style countryside of Sabine County, it offers a level of natural character and timber quality that’s becoming nearly impossible to find.

From the moment you step onto the land, you're greeted by a mature, cathedral-like forest, where the canopy towers above and the understory is blanketed with native ferns, vines, wild grasses, and flowering plants. Roughly 75% of the timber here is hardwood—a rare composition in East Texas, where pine usually dominates. White oaks, red oaks, walnut, ash, sycamore, magnolias, and even cypress thrive in true old-growth form, creating a diversity that gives parts of the property a near-rainforest feel.

The front two-thirds of the land sits on a ridge, offering multiple elevated build sites tucked beneath massive trees. Whether you're dreaming of a cabin, a weekend camp, or a permanent homestead, the land lays out perfectly to give you privacy, beauty, and elevation—all without sacrificing access.

At the rear of the property, the forest opens to Tebo Creek—a true standout feature. This isn’t your typical East Texas creek; Tebo is a massive, 20- to 30-foot-wide spring-fed channel with real depth and steady flow. In the wet season, you can paddle it by kayak or even a small boat, and it’s known to hold channel catfish and perch year-round. Along the creek, you'll also find a large backwater slough—ideal for duck hunting, especially for wood ducks. A natural point on the slough is ready for a blind—a hunter’s dream setup.

And speaking of hunting, the wildlife here is exceptional. With so much hardwood forage, water, and browse, this tract is absolutely loaded with game. Whitetail, hogs, and small game are regular visitors, and the tracks, rubs, and trails make that clear within minutes of walking it. If you’ve been looking for a true hunting property that doesn’t require work to hold game, this one is ready on day one.

Despite the feeling of remote seclusion, you're just 10 to 15 minutes from both Toledo Bend Reservoir and the Sabine National Forest, giving you access to over 100,000 acres of public land and water to explore. Fish, hunt, hike, paddle, and camp—this is a recreational basecamp that could support a lifetime of adventure.

With county road frontage, power on site, and no restrictions, this property is the definition of usable. Whether you're seeking a conservation tract, hunting ranch, homestead, or timber retreat to build your dream home in the tranquil forest, this one checks every box.

If you’ve been waiting for a property that feels wild, alive, and deeply private—but still has all the practical boxes checked—this may be the one you’ve been holding out for.
