This property includes an outbuilding for storage, tools & lawn equipment. Several hundred feet from the main house is electric service & septic in place that could serve for an RV parking site. A deep well on the property provides water to this location as well as the home. Panoramic views around the home w/ lg Oaks, Pecans, a few large Pines & even a few Cedars. Beautiful mature Camellias set off the landscape on the front lawn offering year-round foliage & winter blooms. There is over a mile of existing walking & riding trails on the tract offering excellent access to the property. Wildlife abounds, Eastern Wild Turkey are plentiful as are Whitetail deer. The hunting itself could bring an income stream, however this tract has not been leased for recreation. Hunting for these animals has been well managed by family members allowing for strong numbers as well as a stable & growing population of Bobwhite Quail. Approx 45 ac was converted from cropland to a Long Leaf Pine plantation in late 2010. A Long Leaf tract like this is special & produces better timber & pine straw as well as providing the uplands environment so important to the wildlife that calls this home. There are several mature stands of saw quality pines across the creeks on the ridge tops offering substantial income if cut. The internal road system provides good access for recreation, hiking, hunting or harvesting of this timber. Two spring branches meet on the property forming a larger creek. These water corridors are the life blood for the wildlife on the property & offer the perfect location for a nice lake. There are hundreds of acres of farm & woodlands surrounding this property offering privacy & sanctuary for wildlife. This farm is a turnkey purchase, whether an investor, sportsman or permanent homeowner. What a great place to live, play or retire!
