This lot is quite possibly the last, truly pristine, heavily wooded lot of this size left in Fairview or Lucas.  If there is another one out there, I haven't seen it!

Blondy June Road is my favorite street in all of Lucas.  It is a two lane, winding street under a canopy of trees.  That street is how you get to this lot.  Although the drive to the land from Blondy Jhune Road is unimpressive (you drive by empty land that was a gravel pit), once you get to the lot, it is really gorgeous!  We have cut a couple of trails in so you can walk to the deep, white rock creek.

If you are new to this area, you are going to quickly find out that available heavily wooded, true creek lots are now nonexistent in Fairview and Lucas.  Even a one acre non-wooded, non- creek lot is going to cost about $200,000 per acre in one of Fairview's new subdivisions!  This is an opportunity to buy approximately 5 acres of pristine land on a creek with old growth trees for only $199,750.  You can escape from the world and still be only 7-8 minutes from shopping in Allen!

Although the lot is technically situated within Stonegate subdivision, the lot is exempt from homeowner association dues.

This property is served by McKinney ISD even though it is physically located within the Lucas city limits.  The property is being sold "as is, where is" and it is up to the purchaser to rely on their own investigations and findings to determine whether the property is suitable for their use.  Neither the seller nor broker have any prior history on this land since it was purchased by the seller as he was developing Stonegate.

Note - There is an access easement through Stonegate Subdivision to this lot, however it would require a low water crossing bridge.  Buyer would be responsible for obtaining any permits for the low water crossing bridge.

This deep, white rock creek borders the entire north side of the property.  This picture was taken in severe drought conditions, but there are still pools from one to three feet deep.  Stonegate Subdivision is on the left side of this picture.  As you can see, a low water crossing bridge (nothing more than a 6' concrete pad laid across the creek with 48 inch or so pipes to allow water to run through them) would allow you to enter the property from the left (north) side and up the bank on the south (right side).  It will be up to the buyer to obtain any necessary permits required to build the low water crossing bridge.

Blondy Jhune Rd, seen here, is my favorite street in all of Lucas.  I like its name and I love to drive down the street.  It was named after the daughter of the predominant land owner in this area many years ago.  Blondy Jhune Road ties in to the rear easement from the property.

Although it may not look like it, there is an easement between these two homes for the express purpose of providing access to the subject property behind the trees and across the creek.  The mailbox in the foreground is actually in the middle of the easement and will be removed.  The easement allows you to enter Stonegate through their privacy gate since this lot is part of the subdivision.  If this was the only access to the property, the city would require an expensive bridge to be built for emergency vehicles.

This is a picture of the same easement you see above from the other end.  The creek is just behind the camera maybe 30' or so.

This shot is taken from the subject property across the creek to Stonegate Subdivision just about where the low water crossing would be installed if desired by the buyer and approved by the city.

The second easement to the property off Blondy Jhune Road has just been purchased by the developer of Stonegate.  That easement was the last piece of the puzzle for this particular lot.  This is an extremely hard packed rock road which has been used by heavy gravel and rock trucks.  This road runs by a large gravel and rock pit that is now almost full.  There is one small home at the end of this road near the point that the road touches the subject tract.  You might not want to make this your primary entrance to your property, but for a secondary entrance it works great. 

The path starts right here and winds up and down hills and through heavy growth.  I'll bet there haven't been 2 people on this land over the past 20-30 years.  It was just too thick to even think about walking through until just now!

Another shot of the path winding its away through the trees.

The property is just loaded with native trees, some of them specimen size.  Little Red Oaks like this one have proliferated in this untouched wilderness.  Amazing to think this 5.2 acre tract is only about 5 minutes from shopping in Allen and kids attend one of the finest school systems in the state of Texas!

Another view down one of the paths.

One of the things I find very unusual about this land is the dirt.  It is not the typical muddy gumbo you find all around Lucas and Fairview.  It is a sandy soil which is great for fast drainage after rains.  Another benefit is it will not stick to the hooves of horses like the gumbo.  This soil reminds me a lot of the Pilot Point/Aubrey area with its sandy loam soil.  There must be a thin band of soil running through this area because I have never seen it anywhere else close-by.  The property owner next door actually sells this soil for home building pads.  It is as close to a "select fill" as nature provides.
