Country living, unrestricted land, and a lake minutes away — this 11.43-acre tract in Ore City, Texas brings all three together, along with the groundwork already started for whatever you decide to build. Come for a quiet weekend retreat or settle in for good. Access is the first thing you'll notice. A newly installed gravel drive carries you off the county road and back into the trees, ending at a private clearing featuring scattered trees. Past the clearing, the majority of the acreage is covered with pine and hardwood trees with trails that make the property easy to walk and enjoy. A creek runs through the land just beyond the homesite, drawing wildlife. Community water, electricity, and high-speed fiber optic internet are all available here, so you can work remotely, stream, and stay connected without giving up the seclusion you came for. Lake O' the Pines sits just minutes down the road, putting nearly 19,000 acres of East Texas water within easy reach for bass and crappie fishing, boating, kayaking, camping, and lakeside afternoons at the Corps of Engineers parks and ramps. Day-to-day errands are simple too: Longview is roughly 25 miles away for hospitals, shopping, dining, and the regional airport. Shreveport, Louisiana is about 1 hour 10 minutes out, and the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex sits around 2½ hours away — close enough for a Friday-evening drive to the country. Best of all, there are no restrictions. Build a custom home or a barndominium, set a manufactured home, goats, or chickens, put in a large garden or orchard, add a shop, park the RV and the boat — the decisions stay yours.
