EAST TEXAS HUNTING AND TIMBER LAND FOR SALE NEAR CARTHAGE IN PANOLA COUNTY

East Texas hunting and timber land in northeastern Panola County, this 98.868 ± acre tract near DeBerry, Texas combines maturing hardwood and pine timber with whitetail deer and feral hog habitat. The property is located on CR 3361, DeBerry, TX 75639, at GPS coordinates 32.3134° N, 94.1630° W. The list price is $430,570, or approximately $4,355 per acre.

Current use is recreational timber land for hunting and outdoor recreation. Three wet weather creeks cross the tract, and two county roads provide access. Soils are rated for loblolly pine. A timber exemption is in place, and no restrictions apply to the property.

Soils on the tract are fine and very fine sandy loam. Loblolly pine site index values run from 100 on 46 acres to 93 on 38 acres, and soil data provided with the listing shows potential growth of up to 157 cubic feet per acre per year. Foresters use site index to rate how well a soil grows a given species, so these figures give a buyer a soil-based starting point for timber planning.

The stands today are maturing hardwood and pine, with minimal management in recent years. That leaves the next owner free to set the plan, whether it means thinning, replanting, or letting the timber keep growing.

Hardwood and pine cover provides habitat for whitetail deer and feral hogs, and small game are present across the acreage. A limited trail system reaches parts of the tract. The remaining ground is open for a new owner to lay out trails and stands, and the creek drainages are a logical starting point for blind and stand placement.

Three wet weather creeks cross the property. One drainage may be suitable for a lake of up to 15 acres, and a second could support a lake of up to 6 acres. Any lake project would require engineering review, permitting, and confirmation of site conditions, so buyers should verify feasibility during due diligence.

See the potential lake sites map in the property documents.

Multiple sites on the property are suitable for a hunting cabin or country home. Two county roads provide access to the tract. One includes a subdivision lot with power and water, and to the best of the listing agent’s knowledge, utilities are available via that lot. Buyers should verify service availability and connection details. Electric and water line easements are in place, and small mineral interests may be negotiable with a valid offer.

The property currently carries a timber exemption. Buyers should confirm exemption status, continuation requirements, and any rollback considerations with the Panola County Appraisal District.
