Proposed Data Center Locations
3,079± total acres | Taylor and Jones Counties, Texas
We are proud to offer two prime real estate tracts for sale located just north of Abilene, Texas. Currently, two major data centers are under construction near Abilene, and these two offerings are located between the two present data centers. The size and locations of these two properties are considered very suitable for data center development.
1,449± Acre Tract
This portion is located in a transitional development area with frontage on FM 2833, FM1082, County Roads 503 and 306. This property is comprised of approximately 500 acres of dryland farmland and 610 acres under pivot irrigation, with the remainder being in native pasture. A large electric substation adjoins the northwest corner of the property.
1,630± Acre Tract
The western portion of this tract is located in close proximity to both new commercial development and housing development. The northwest side of the property fronts State Highway 351, which is currently experiencing substantial growth and development. Approximately 625 acres in the central portion of the property are high game fenced. Approximately 900 acres are in dryland cultivation, with around 175 acres being under pivot sprinkler, and the remainder is in native pasture. The west-half of the property offers substantial development potential and may be best suited for this purpose. The eastern 800-1,000 acres appears to be suitable for data center development.
Both properties have substantial upside potential from a development standpoint, and more specifically for data center development.
