Property Description
Welcome to Gopher Knoll Farm, a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom farmhouse nestled on 12+ acres, zoned both residential & commercial, inside the Loop in Athens, TX. For over 15 years, this property has been the heart of a beloved local heirloom vegetable, fruit, and honey farm, providing fresh, clean produce to Athens and beyond. Not a single pesticide has been used on this property for the 15 years these conscientious Sellers have owned it. Now, it's your turn to own a piece of this incredible history! This cozy farmhouse offers comfortable living with spacious rooms. The land surrounding it is as beautiful as it is versatile. The property features a serene pond, a perfect balance of pasture and woods, and is partially fenced along the perimeter. Included with the property are a large shed and greenhouse—ideal for continuing the farming legacy or pursuing your own agricultural endeavors. This property is already ag exempt with the bee hives, so maintaining those lower taxes will be a breeze. These Sellers are even willing to make the bees currently on property a part of the deal. With ample frontage along Loop 7, you'll enjoy the convenience of being close to all the essential amenities of Athens, while still having the peaceful seclusion of being nestled between two commercial properties. The location couldn't be more perfect—you're just minutes from shops, restaurants, schools, and more, while still enjoying the tranquility of rural living. Whether you're looking to continue the legacy of clean food production or create your own rural retreat, this property offers endless possibilities. With lush pastures, wooded areas, a pond, large shed, and greenhouse, it's an ideal setting for farming, ranching, or simply enjoying nature. Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to own a piece of Athens' agricultural history in a prime, convenient location!
