About 8526 N Fm 1744
Located at 8526 FM 1744 in Hico, Texas, this exceptional 33.673-acre tract offers prime estate and commercial potential in one of the most sought-after areas of Hamilton County. Ideally positioned with improved access off both Highway 281 and FM 1744, the property sits centrally between Hamilton, Hico, and Stephenville, home of Tarleton State University, making it a strategic investment opportunity with excellent visibility and accessibility. The seller has developed a comprehensive concept plan for a vineyard and wine-tasting facility with full-service RV accommodations, available upon request and previewed in the listing photos.
The property has been thoughtfully improved and is ready for continued development. A 502-foot commercial water well with a 4-inch casing and a 5-horsepower pump serves the property, along with two 2-inch water lines installed within 5 feet of the interior fence line and additional 2-inch lines servicing the RV sites. Approximately four acres are planted in established vineyard production, consisting of 70% Syrah and 30% Picpoul Blanc varietals. There are 14 full-service, pull-through RV spaces, spaced 30 feet apart, each with a separate entrance off FM 1744 and connected by a 25-foot driveway, with septic already in place. A stock pond, scattered mature oak trees, extensive clearing, and a newly constructed caliche road system throughout the property further enhance usability and curb appeal.
Hico continues to thrive as a charming Central Texas destination, often compared to Fredericksburg's early growth days. With its growing collection of boutiques and restaurants and steady traffic between Fort Worth and Austin, the area presents strong long-term potential for commercial and hospitality ventures.
