1.97 Acres for Sale in Altus, Arkansas

Looking for a buildable homesite in the Arkansas River Valley with the hard parts already lined up? This 1.97-acre lot at 9708 Wandering Way, just outside Altus in Franklin County, Arkansas, has about 440 feet of frontage on a public county road, public water from the City of Altus, power lines along the road, and a septic permit on file.

• Public water available from the City of Altus
• Power lines run along the road, served by Ozark Electric Cooperative

• Gentle, buildable ground at an elevation of about 400 feet
• Can be divided, with no minimum lot size in the county
• APN 001-00710-000

THE LAND:

The lot is a clean rectangle that runs along the north side of Wandering Way. Most of it is wooded, with a more open area toward the east end. The trees give you privacy from the road and shade for a home, cabin, or shop, and you can clear as much or as little as you want. There are homes on both sides, so this is an established rural street, not an empty stretch of backcountry. The ground is not steep, which keeps site prep simple.

ACREAGE NOTE:

Some county and online parcel records list this property at 2.58 acres. The 2023 boundary survey and the recorded legal description show 1.97 acres, and 1.97 acres is what you will be buying. Please use 1.97 acres when you compare this property to others.

UTILITIES AND BUILDING:

Public water from the City of Altus is available to the property. Electric service from Ozark Electric Cooperative runs along the road, and homes nearby are already connected. There is no public sewer here, but a septic permit has been issued. A copy of the permit is available on request, so you can hand it to your installer and get started. Because there is no county zoning, you are not limited by zoning rules on lot use. The usual state health and building requirements still apply, so please check them with the proper offices before you build.

LOCATION:

The property is about 4 miles from Altus, a small town known for the wineries and vineyards of Arkansas wine country, and a short drive to Interstate 40. From there you can reach Ozark, Clarksville, and Fort Smith. Students in this area go to Ozark School District schools, including Ozark Upper Elementary, Ozark Middle School, and Ozark High School. The Ozark National Forest, the Arkansas River, and Mulberry River country are all within driving distance for hunting, fishing, floating, and hiking.

IDEAL FOR:

• Building a full-time home in a quiet, rural setting
• A weekend cabin or retirement place in the River Valley
• A homesite for family close to Fort Smith and I-40
• A long-term land hold in a growing area
