If you've been looking for that great weekend get-a-way or maybe the perfect hunting tract at a price you can afford, don't look any further than this property. This property is located 4 miles north of US Hwy 84 in Jakin, Georgia giving easy access to major portions of Georgia, Florida, and Alabama. The property is comprised of three tax parcels with a combined total of 235 +/- acres. A 1400 +/- sq. ft. country home on the property would make the perfect hunting lodge or restoration project for a family home. The property suffered significant damage to both the pine and hardwood timber in 2018 during Hurricane Michael, however an amazing stand of volunteer pines are aggressively growing. With the new owner's implementation of a timber management plan, this property will soon be as beautiful as ever.
