Overview

This 25-acre tract offers a rural, open landscape with native grasses and young tree growth that has regenerated following a 2019 fire. The property is being marketed as an opportunity for either a country homesite or a recreational retreat, with the character of Mulberry Canyon providing a private setting and room to spread out. County road frontage supports convenient access and offers flexibility for future development decisions.

The land is located in the Mulberry Canyon area, approximately 30 minutes from downtown Abilene. Co-op water is available through Blair Water Supply, and electricity is available nearby. The setting combines open space with a peaceful, countryside feel that is well suited for buyers looking for a weekend escape or a more remote build site.

Given its mix of privacy, regenerated natural cover, and utility availability, this parcel can fit buyers seeking a rural homesite with straightforward access for vehicles and basic site planning. It also works for recreational uses where open terrain and a natural landscape are priorities. For anyone considering a gradual development approach, the county road frontage and available water service provide a practical starting point to move forward.
