Listing Description
This property is 20 miles from downtown Tyler and 30 miles from downtown Longview, located one block off Highway 80 and FM 14 between Mineola and Big Sandy. According to TxDOT, the annual average daily traffic along this stretch of Highway 80 and FM 14 each day is approximately 7,000 cars, which makes this an excellent location for a business owner to capture travelers and commuters, looking for a bite to eat in a geographic area where the only other reliable option for a meal is Sonic or the closest gas station. The owners have taken meticulous care in building out this drive-thru business and summer snow-cone stand to help generate traffic and revenues in Hawkins. A new owner could also place an oversized or tall sign on the property that can be seen from the highway to also help drive business.
The improvements on this lot include the 12x30 burrito business building with drive thru, and an 8x12 snow-cone building with two parking spots in front. Seller is looking to sell everything as a turn-key operation.
This community offers tourism from nearby larger towns, like Longview, Tyler, Dallas, and even Waco and central Texas. Hawkins has a Brookshire's, Dollar General, NAPA and an ACE Hardware in the city limits and a few miles west off Highway 80 is a hidden gem: the pristine Lake Hawkins, where there is a county owned RV park and swim beach that is maintained by a private contractor who keep the beach immaculate and hoppin' in the summer. Don't miss out on the annual Fourth of July Fireworks show that go off at the dam right by the beach.
