Accessed via private electric gate, this property has approximately 1.5 miles of road frontage on Story Mill Rd, and around 1/2 a mile of frontage on Winter Road. Most of the land is zoned A1, which is ideal for farming, with approximately 160 acres along Winter Road recently rezoned to R1. With easy access to Highway 25 and I-520, the property is well-positioned for both residential and investment growth. A municipal water line is located approximately 100 yards from the property on Story Mill Road, toward the Hephzibah city limits, offering strong utility potential for future projects. The back 677 acres (053 007A) are currently enrolled in a Conservation Use program for tax benefit purposes. This tax status transfers with the sale of the property and remains in effect through December 31, 2027. Preliminary Development Map Available. A conceptual parcel map has been prepared for the property. Future development would still require engineering, approvals, and rezoning. The property features 3 stocked fishing ponds, approximately 10-13 acres each, and two additional stock ponds, around 1 acre each. In addition to the ponds, the land features gently rolling hills, wooded tracts, and ± 2 miles of frontage along McBean Creek, creating a lush habitat that is ideal for wildlife. This tract offers an excellent location for hunting and recreation, and its natural wetland features present a unique opportunity for conservation easements and environmental preservation credits. The majority of the property is covered in timberland, consisting of a mix of mature hardwoods and planted pines at varying stages of growth, with a substantial portion of the planted pines estimated to be chip-and-saw grade. A 2,636 sq ft ranch-style brick home sits atop a hill overlooking the main pond. Built in 1967 and renovated in 2024, the 4BR/2BA home features an open floor plan, covered front porch, two-car carport, storage closets, central HVAC, private well/septic, and Airbnb income history. Additional structures include a 2,600 sq ft open-air shed with power, a horse barn in need of repair, and a grain silo. Call today to schedule a private showing of this rare Burke County offering. Seller will consider subdividing the 580-acre tract, including sections with pond frontage, pending county approval and mutually agreeable terms.
