The Williams Estate at Magnolia Trails is tucked away on 22.06 secluded acres in Southern Cherokee County. This extraordinary property offers a rare blend of rustic charm, modern comfort, and the unspoiled natural beauty of East Texas. Located off County Road 2804 with over 1,100 feet of road frontage and situated South of Alto. This heavily wooded sanctuary is perfect for nature lovers, outdoor adventurers, and anyone seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle. A gated entrance leads down a scenic, tree-lined driveway beneath a canopy of pines, blooming magnolias, and young hardwoods, welcoming you into your own private retreat. At the heart of the property is a warm, inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home, wrapped in over 600 feet of covered porches—ideal for sipping morning coffee, enjoying sunset views, or watching deer meander through the trees. Inside, the home radiates rustic character and warmth, with knotty pine floors and picture windows in every room that frame the surrounding forest like living art. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet evening by the fire or entertaining for the weekend, the layout is designed for both comfort and connection to the outdoors. Just steps away, a spacious shop offers covered parking, upper-level storage, and a hidden bonus: a private 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest suite. Behind the shop, a private trail system winds through the acreage, perfect for peaceful walks, wildlife watching, or ATV rides right in your own backyard. Adventure also awaits nearby, 10 minutes from the Davy Crockett National Forest, 30 minutes from the Angelina National Forest, and close to Lake Nacogdoches and the Angelina and Neches Rivers for boating, fishing, paddling, and exploring. Hunters will appreciate the area’s abundant wildlife, including whitetail deer, wild hogs, and small game. Whether you’re searching for a full-time homestead, weekend retreat, or multi-generational compound, this East Texas gem offers unmatched privacy, beauty, and year-round recreation.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
