Jacksonville, TX – October 11, 2026
This offering is approximately 67 acres of rolling East Texas landscape combined with substantial fee simple frontage on the deep, clear waters of Lake Jacksonville. Conveniently located just outside Jacksonville, Texas, the property blends the privacy and recreation of a ranch with the lifestyle and amenities of a premier lakefront retreat.
Anchored by an approximately 4,763 square foot custom home, the ranch has been thoughtfully improved for year-round enjoyment with boating, fishing, ATV trails, shooting sports, pickleball, and multiple gathering areas designed for entertaining family and guests. Unlike many lakefront properties, Lakeside Ranch is being offered nearly turnkey, with the majority of furnishings, a wakeboard/ski boat, personal watercraft (2), golf cart (2), ATVs (3), and most items conveying with the sale.
The combination of usable acreage, private cove frontage, recreational infrastructure, and meticulously maintained improvements creates an offering that would be difficult and costly to recreate in today’s market.
The topography at Lakeside Ranch is characterized by gently rolling terrain, mature hardwoods, open pastureland, and scenic elevation changes descending 50 +/- feet from the house toward the lake frontage.
A winding drive through mature trees creates a dramatic and private approach to the improvements, while the open pasture areas provide flexibility for additional structures, guest homes, recreational improvements, or future development potential. The land currently has an Agricultural Exemption in place.
The property features approximately 490+/- feet of fee simple frontage along a protected private cove on Lake Jacksonville, providing privacy, excellent water quality, and year-round usability rarely found on Texas recreational lakes. The water depth at the dock is approximately 9 feet deep, ensuring consistent usage. The lake is fed by multiple tributaries which help the lake stay at or near “pool level” even in severe droughts allowing for year round usage.
The recently updated boathouse offers deep water access, floating capability, and convenient accommodations for boating and water sports. The cove is known for its sandy bottom, absence of stumps or debris, and calm water conditions ideal for swimming, paddleboarding, and family recreation.
In addition to the lake frontage, the ranch also includes a stocked bass pond supplied by a dedicated pump system utilizing lake water, helping maintain consistent water levels throughout the year.
The main residence, constructed in 2006, consists of approximately 4,763+/- square feet with 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, multiple living and entertaining spaces, and an upstairs game room with a balcony. The home has been exceptionally maintained with no known deferred maintenance and is positioned to maximize privacy and views overlooking the surrounding pastures all the way down to the lake.
