FM 1197, Yantis, TX 75497

This offering presents a rare, largely untouched land tract set along the shores of Lake Fork in East Texas. The property is described as undeveloped and has been held within the same family since the late 1800s, with a history of never being hunted. With mature timber and unspoiled terrain, it includes recreational and wildlife-focused value, highlighted by the ability to support activities such as whitetail hunting, wild hogs, and turkey pursuits.

The tract totals approximately 788 +/- acres and features over two miles of shoreline along Lake Fork. Additional frontage is noted as associated with the Sabine River Authority. Approximately 200 acres are subject to a leaseback with the Sabine River Authority, adding flexibility for long-term planning while preserving the character of the land. It is located about 60 miles east of the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex, balancing accessibility with privacy.

As a multi-purpose investment, the property can fit multiple owner goals, whether that’s a premier private estate, an exclusive recreational retreat, or a future development concept that takes advantage of the area’s natural appeal. With water access, seclusion, and an established wildlife habitat profile, it is positioned for buyers seeking a legacy-scale asset rather than a conventional, subdivided parcel.
