"Sheep Creek" boasts 306 acres of diverse timber and open land in the heart of middle Georgia. The combination of spectacular open pasture and mature timber makes it an ideal place for the savvy investor, farmer, or hunter who wants to enjoy their investment! Located ten miles from downtown Sparta, on the Milledgeville side of Hancock County, this quiet farm is only twenty minutes from Georgia College and State University in Milledgeville, is an hour from Macon, and less than two hours from Atlanta. There are multiple dwellings on the farm, including: a main house; 3bd/2ba bunk house; workshop with apartment; horse barn; tractor barn; and finished equipment work shop. With so much character, the main house is perfectly suited for the property and was built with comfort and entertainment in mind. The open floor plan, with big living room and kitchen, make it perfect for hosting. The two indoor and one outdoor fire places will keep you warm in the winter, and you'll stay cool in the summer on the screened in or wrap around porches that overlook the horse paddocks. The large master bedroom upstairs has a patio overlooking the pond behind the house. Most of the property around the main house is open land that would be ideal for livestock and is fully fenced. The timber side of the property is approximately 150 acres with substantial timber value that has not been thinned or cut since before the current owners purchased the farm 24 years ago. It is fenced with barbed wire and could be converted into pasture land after harvesting or be replanted in trees. There is also a metal work shop on this side of the property, with a concrete floor, loft for storage, and a private 1bd/1ba finished apartment beside one of the property's ponds a private retreat for guests or potential rental opportunity. As anyone would expect, the habitat diversity of this farm makes it an outdoorsman's paradise. It has been leased to a hunting club that has managed it for white tail deer and turkey and there are trails for a truck or buggy throughout. There is a duck hole as well as four ponds stocked with largemouth bass. There are food plots throughout the property and ample dove field opportunities. The three-bed-two-bath bunk house (behind the main house and pavilion) make it a perfect place for hosting guests or be ideal for a hunting club. There is also a walk-in freezer to store game behind an additional shop with garage doors and a concrete floor perfect for storing and working on equipment. This special property is something you have to see to believe. Call me to schedule a showing today. Photos of the inside to come!
