Athens

A rare offering of 27 rolling acres in Athens, combining natural beauty, income-tax-friendly ag exemption status, and turnkey functionality. A spring-fed creek traces the southern boundary while a small lake adds a peaceful focal point to the property — ideal for fishing, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying the view. The gently rolling terrain offers an ideal building site for a future home, and the property fronts FM 753 for easy, direct access. A 1,125 sq ft barndominium, built in 2021, makes this property truly move-in ready — live on site while you design and build your dream home, rather than commuting to manage construction from afar. The barndominium features a full bathroom and a loft for flexible living or storage space, plus covered RV parking with full electric and sewer hookups on both sides of the barn — ideal for guests, contractors, or extended family during your build. With ag-exempt status already in place, a functioning creek and lake, and prime road frontage, this is a rare chance to secure acreage in Athens that works for you now and sets up exactly what you want to build next.
