5943 Carriage Rd, Temple, TX 76502

Diamond in the rough, minutes from the lake! This 2.84± acre tract is one of the most unique parcels to hit the market in the lake area of Belton ISD - offering privacy, natural beauty, and real long-term upside in a pocket that's steadily growing. A wet-weather creek winds along the back of the property, fed in part by a natural low spot that collects water before it reaches the creek bed — a peaceful, seasonal feature framed by mature native flora and fauna. The original entrance still hints at what this property once was, anchored by towering century plant agaves that give it real curb appeal from the road. Multiple potential homesites are scattered across the tract — build near the street for a classic frontage home, or head toward the back where the land opens up with several additional clearings and a gentle natural slope, ideal for a secluded mini-compound or, with the right approvals, subdivision into multiple homesites. Evidence of prior home sites can still be seen on the property today. On utilities: the local water utility confirms a meter exists on site and has indicated availability for an additional meter — meaning this property could potentially support two or more water connections. No survey is currently on file; buyer to verify boundaries and development requirements. Located in a growing area near the lake with strong appreciation potential ahead. Whether you're dreaming of a secluded homesite or a property with real subdivision upside, this one has to be seen in person to be appreciated. Schedule your private showing today.
