Tract A on County Road 3361 sits inside an unencumbered pocket of land in northeastern Panola County,
where the East Texas Pineywoods run thick and property lines are still worth
something. This 0.72-acre subdivision lot is priced for a
buyer who wants a real piece of East Texas dirt without restrictions standing
in the way of what they plan to do with it. The overstory is mature and
established, featuring Loblolly pine, mixed oaks, and hardwoods running 20-plus years
deep with flat, workable terrain underneath. Power and water are available at
the road. The rest is up to you.
Additional lots and a large-acreage option are also available on CR 3361 for buyers who need more room to
work with (see tract summary below).
Property Details | 0.72-Acre Tract A on CR 3361
Tract A carries road frontage on
County Road 3361 in DeBerry, Texas, placing it at the junction of convenience
and seclusion that rural land buyers are increasingly hard-pressed to find at
this price point. The terrain is predominantly flat, making it straightforward
to site a home, place a manufactured home, or set up a cabin without
significant site work. Power and water are accessible at the
road, reducing the cost and complexity of getting any structure up and running.
The forest cover is dense and
mature. Loblolly pine is the dominant species, a commercially important
Southern Yellow Pine common throughout the East Texas Pineywoods that grows
tall and straight and provides genuine canopy privacy. Mixed oaks and other native
hardwoods fill in the understory, which means shade, habitat, and the kind of
quiet that only a heavily wooded lot can offer. The sandy to clay loam soils
typical of this part of Panola County can support a kitchen garden, fruit
trees, a small animal operation, or future building projects.
No known deed restrictions apply
to this property. The absence of restrictions is the point. Whether the plan is
a permanent home, a weekend getaway, a place to keep animals, or simply a
long-hold land investment in a region that has quietly appreciated for decades,
Tract A can accommodate it. Buyer to verify all information independently.

East Texas Pineywoods Setting and Land Character
This part of Panola County sits
squarely in the East Texas Pineywoods, a forested region stretching across
roughly 23,500 square miles of deep East Texas where the land looks and feels
different from nearly every other part of the state. According to the Texas
A&M Forest Service, Loblolly pine is the most commercially significant
native pine in the region, growing in the sandy to clay loam soils common here
and reaching heights of 80 to 100 feet at maturity. Mixed in with the pines are
post oaks, water oaks, blackjack oaks, sweetgum, and other hardwoods typical of
the upland East Texas forest, creating layered cover that holds wildlife,
retains moisture, and provides natural privacy from the road and neighboring
parcels.
The Sabine River runs through
Panola County, forming the state’s border with Louisiana to the east. Texas
Parks and Wildlife maintains public river access, including the Sabine Sandbar
Paddling Trail southeast of Carthage, a designated waterway offering fishing,
quiet pools, and sandbars suited for day use. Lake Murvaul, a
3,397-surface-acre reservoir in the Sabine River basin roughly 30 miles
southwest, is the county’s primary recreational lake and one of the
better-regarded bass fisheries in the region, receiving national recognition
for trophy largemouth bass production as far back as the 1960s and continuing
to draw anglers and families today.
Carthage Texas | Panola County Seat
Carthage, the Panola County
seat, sits roughly 14 miles southwest of DeBerry on US Highway 79 and serves as
the practical anchor for daily needs — groceries, medical, hardware, banking,
and fuel are all within a short drive. The city of approximately 6,500
residents is also home to attractions that draw visitors from well beyond
county lines. The Texas Country Music Hall of Fame and the Tex Ritter Museum
honor country music legends with Texas roots, including Tex Ritter, Jim Reeves,
and George Jones. The Jim Reeves Memorial, located three miles east of downtown
along Highway 79, draws music fans and history enthusiasts throughout the year.
Downtown Carthage retains its historic courthouse square, the Old Panola County
Jail Museum, the Texas Tea Room and Heritage Museum, and local dining including
Longhorn Country Grill and Rancho Grande. Annual community events include the
Piney Woods Quilt Festival each April, the East Texas Oil and Gas Blast in
June, and the Panola County Cattlemen’s Pro Rodeo. Panola College is located in
Carthage and provides continuing education and workforce training for county
residents.

East Texas Climate
Panola County sits in the humid
subtropical climate zone common to deep East Texas, with warm extended growing
seasons and rainfall distributed throughout the year. Based on NOAA 1991–2020
climate normals recorded at the Carthage station, annual precipitation averages
approximately 52 inches — enough to sustain the dense forest cover, keep stock
ponds full in most years, and support kitchen gardens and small orchards
without irrigation. Summer highs run in the low to mid-90s from June through
August. Winter is mild, with average highs in the upper 50s to low 60s in
December and January, and snowfall that amounts to less than an inch in most
years. Spring and fall deliver the most comfortable weather for outdoor work,
land clearing, gardening, and recreation. The growing season is long and
forgiving, well-suited for anyone planning to raise a meaningful portion of
their own food on this property.
