Rural Property & Acreage Near Irene

The countryside surrounding Irene includes farmland, pasture, acreage and rural residences characteristic of this part of Hill County. Properties can range from smaller residential acreage to larger tracts used for agricultural, livestock, recreational or other rural purposes.

Land can differ substantially in its existing improvements and infrastructure. Some properties may include fencing, barns, workshops, stock tanks or other agricultural improvements, while undeveloped tracts may require additional planning for access, utilities, water and wastewater.
