Listed by John Dean of TX Rec Land Real Estate ((512) 540-1555)
This 19.17-acre property is full of untapped potential thanks to its highway access, excellent location, and valuable features. Situated at the intersection of US Highways 77 and 79, the property benefits from combined daily traffic counts exceeding 13,000 vehicles, offering outstanding visibility for future development. Highway 77 borders the eastern side of the property for more than 2,000 feet and includes two existing entrances. East 3rd Street provides an additional 156 feet of frontage with its own entrance. The land is mostly flat and level, with balanced soils and multiple strong building sites. A 1,583-square-foot, 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is already in place and can continue to serve as a residence or be converted into an office. The home features numerous recent upgrades, including the roof, siding, tile, and more. A septic system is already installed. Outside, you'll find a cantina, storage sheds, a fire pit, & additional improvements. Approximately 1,000 feet of Union Pacific railroad frontage runs along the northern boundary, leaving the door open for a future spur and true intermodal potential. Utilities are available. North of the railroad, the city maintains a sewer lift station. The property sits just outside the Rockdale city limits within the ETJ and is located inside a designated Opportunity Zone, offering the potential for valuable tax incentives. The Rockdale area continues to see significant growth, with multiple major projects underway. Just six miles west, Sandow Lakes Ranch and The Switch industrial development are bringing major employment opportunities, along with expanding bitcoin and data-center operations. Samsung's Taylor facility is approximately 30 minutes west via Highway 79. With no zoning or known restrictions, the property offers exceptional flexibility. Whether you envision residential, multifamily, hospitality, mixed-use, industrial, or commercial development, this site is well positioned to meet the demand.
