Cottonwood pairs peaceful country living with easy access to big-city opportunity. Set in Kaufman County, it's minutes from Terrell and Kaufman, and within a reasonable commute of Dallas via US 175. Residents value space—think acreage, modern ranch homes, and quiet evenings—along with a neighborly pace that still keeps errands, healthcare, and dining close by.
Families are served by Scurry-Rosser ISD, known for tight-knit campuses, competitive extracurriculars, and community support. Higher education and workforce programs are close at hand through Trinity Valley Community College’s Health Science Center in Kaufman, adding convenient pathways for upskilling without a long drive.
Weekends here are easy to fill. Hit the water at Cedar Creek Reservoir for boating and bass fishing, or head to the boardwalks and guided programs at the John Bunker Sands Wetland Center, a regional gem for birding and conservation education. History buffs can make a short hop to the No. 1 British Flying Training School Museum in Terrell, while frequent flyers appreciate the run to Dallas-area employment hubs and airports.
Whether you’re seeking elbow room for a garden and workshop or a quieter base with city amenities close by, Cottonwood offers an appealing blend of rural comfort and connection. When you’re ready to buy or sell, Agent Pronto can introduce you to a top local real estate pro who knows the area inside and out.
