1 acre in Lipan, Texas. Well, power, fence. No HOA.

A 1-acre homesite at 130 County Road 464. The old buildings are coming down. The infrastructure that matters — water, electricity, a perimeter fence — is already in place.

What you don't have to build from scratch

Most small-acreage lots in central Texas come with raw dirt and a power-company waitlist. This one doesn't.

The well is grandfathered

Texas won't let you drill a new water well on properties under 5 acres. This lot already has one in place, with a working pressure system. That's a $3,000–$15,000 line item most buyers don't realize they're missing until they try.

Power pole, ready to go

UCS (Tri-County Electric Cooperative) pole release is on file. Electric service is established at the lot — no utility wait, no $5K–$15K infrastructure surprise. Pick a home, get a meter, get connected.

Privacy fence (2/3 of the perimeter)

The cedar privacy fence is staying. It runs about two-thirds of the way around the lot. Move-in or build-day, you've already got a head start on enclosure, screening, and quiet.

Low taxes, no HOA, no floodplain

Post-protest assessment of ~$90,000 puts the annual tax bill at roughly $600/yr. No homeowners association. Not in a 100-year or 500-year flood zone. No deed restrictions on file.

What this isn't

The marketing copy above will not say things that aren't true. This section names the things a buyer might assume, but should not.

Pricing context

A specific lot-only asking price is not listed here. The numbers below are the verified bands and the seller's documented cost basis, so a serious buyer can see where the property sits in the market.

Seller cost basis$91,146 (cash, Aug 2025, arm's-length close)
Current tax assessment~$90,000 (post-protest)
As-is pricing band (studs condition)$45,000 – $115,000 (cash investor and MLS exposure ranges, per rural-Erath comparables)
Finished-home ARV (3BR/2BA on 1 ac)$165,000 – $222,000 (likely ~$192,000, anchored to in-town Lipan comps: Gandy $174.9K, Kickapoo $189.9K, W Brown $235K)
Lot-only askingSet by the seller on a per-lead basis. Submit the form below for the current number.
How to read this. Cost basis is what the seller paid. Assessment is what the county uses to compute tax. As-is band is what cash buyers and MLS exposure have historically produced for properties in this condition. ARV is what a finished home could sell for. The gap between the as-is band and the ARV is the build cost. None of these numbers is the asking price; the asking price is set by the seller and is given to qualified leads on request.

What's on the lot right now

Four old structures are being demolished and removed as part of the property restoration. The privacy fence is staying. Once the demo is complete, the lot is a clean 1-acre pad with a perimeter fence on the long sides, an operating well, an electric service, and a septic system of unknown condition (inspectable at buyer expense).

Honest framing. The lot is being sold as a homesite, not as a clean pad you can move onto today. The demo is in progress; the post-demo state is a near-future condition. Pre-demo photos (studs frame from late 2025 / early 2026) and post-demo photos will be on this site as the work completes.

Common questions

Can I put a manufactured home here?

Yes. Manufactured homes are permitted on this lot under Erath County rules, subject to standard permitting, foundation, and tie-down requirements. If you're interested in a one-time-close land + new manufactured home package, see the package page.

Can I put a site-built home here?

Yes. The lot is not restricted to manufactured housing. Site-built (stick-built) homes are allowed under standard Erath County permitting, subject to the well restriction noted below.

Can I drill a new water well?

No. Under current Texas rules, new water wells cannot be drilled on properties under 5 acres. This lot already has a well in place; that well is the source of water for the home you build.

Is the property in a flood zone?

No. The seller's disclosure states the property is not in a 100-year or 500-year flood zone, and there are no FEMA claims on file.

Are there deed restrictions or an HOA?

No HOA on file. No deed restrictions on file. Erath County rules apply.

What about internet?

Several options are confirmed for the 76462 zip: Brightspeed (DSL/fiber where available), Starlink ($120/mo residential), HughesNet, Nomad, and TravlFi. Speeds and pricing vary; Starlink is the most common rural solution at this address.

Who pays closing costs?

By default, the buyer and seller split customary Texas closing costs. Specific terms are negotiable as part of any offer.
