Motivated Sellers - Turnkey property just outside Merkel with water already in place and a brand new 2024 home, properties like this are getting harder to find. Whether you’re looking for a weekend place, a manageable setup for a few animals, or a future larger homesite, this one is ready to go from day one. The property features both coop water and two water wells, giving you flexibility and long-term peace of mind. The newly built home offers a clean, efficient living space that works great as a primary residence, guest house, or temporary home while you build something larger. It also offers strong Airbnb potential or an easy lock-and-leave weekend escape for buyers coming in from Dallas or surrounding areas. The acreage is usable and open, making it ideal for horses, a small cattle operation, or simply enjoying the space and privacy of country living. Located a short drive from Abilene, you get the convenience of town with the freedom of owning your own land. Properties with this combination of size, water, and improvements don’t come available often, especially at this price point. If you’ve been waiting for something you can actually use immediately without a long list of projects, this is it. Land and agricultural financing options are well-suited for this property, offering competitive interest rates for qualified buyers.
