Whether you're looking for a recreational retreat, a hunting haven, or a long-term timber investment, this land delivers on all fronts. The property is nestled along a peaceful creek with picturesque views, providing an idyllic setting for outdoor enthusiasts. Its prime location on a paved road ensures year-round access and adds an extra level of convenience, making it easy to enjoy the property in all seasons. The land is a true hunter’s paradise with abundant deer sign throughout the property. Wildlife thrives here, and the mixture of wooded terrain and creek frontage creates an ideal habitat for both game and non-game species. The property's internal trail system offers easy access to different areas, allowing you to explore the land on foot or by ATV on one side of the property. With timber standing tall across much of the property, this acreage represents an excellent investment opportunity, whether you're looking to harvest for profit now or in the future. The combination of mature trees and manageable topography makes it a promising timber resource with both short- and long-term value. In addition to its recreational and investment appeal, this property includes a number of essential utilities that make it even more enticing. The land comes with free gas per the owner, a feature that significantly enhances the property's value and lowers future utility costs, allowing for savings on heating or energy needs. The septic system is already in place that was used at the old structure when it was functioning, making it easier for potential buyers to envision building a cabin or home on-site. Electricity is available, so there’s no need to worry about power hookups if you choose to build. The property is highly private, tucked away in a secluded setting that allows for a peaceful lifestyle or weekend getaway. A dilapidated old structure currently exists on the property, but it would need to be removed or renovated depending on your plans. This could be an opportunity to repurpose the existing building or clear the land for new development. One consideration for future owners is the access across the stream, which will require some attention to improve or create the ideal crossing point, but this also presents an opportunity to design the property to fit your needs. With creek frontage and an established trail system on one side, the land is well-suited for anyone who enjoys outdoor recreation, from hunting and hiking or riding ATVs on the trails. The property’s combination of features—creek access, wildlife habitat, timber potential, and utility infrastructure—makes it an ideal candidate for those looking for a self-sustained rural retreat or a long-term investment that will only grow in value.
