Investor Opportunity in East Texas! Nestled 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 brimming with character and ready for transformation. Zoned for both residential and commercial use, this flexible property could serve as a retreat center, dance or yoga studio, office space, or even a distinctive private residence. An open grassy area provides ample parking or space for outdoor gatherings, and the natural surroundings offer a peaceful atmosphere just waiting to be reimagined. While the structures will need renovation, the rare blend of dual zoning, wide-open green space, and unique historical architecture makes this a standout opportunity. The road frontage is grass-covered, reinforcing the rural charm and quiet ambiance of the area. With a little creativity and investment, this property could become a truly one-of-a-kind destination. Don’t miss the chance to turn this blank canvas into something remarkable!
