Investor Opportunity in East Texas! Set on nearly an acre in a quiet rural setting, this 1,500 sq ft property—once home to the Temple of Maat Spiritual Center—offers outstanding potential for redevelopment. The site includes a former church and rectory, both filled with character and ready for transformation. Zoned for both residential and commercial use, this flexible property opens the door to endless possibilities, whether you envision a retreat center, dance or yoga studio, office space, or a distinctive private residence. An open grassy area provides ample parking or room for outdoor gatherings, while the natural surroundings create a peaceful atmosphere just waiting to be reimagined. Though the existing structures will need renovation, the combination of dual zoning, wide-open green space, and unique historical architecture makes this a standout investment. The road frontage is grass-covered, adding to the rural charm and quiet ambiance of the area. With creativity and vision, this could easily become a one-of-a-kind East Texas destination. Don’t miss the chance to transform this blank canvas into something remarkable!
