Description
This property is located just north of Jewett along County Road 450. Access is provided by a quarter-mile lane running south off CR 450 that enters at the property’s northwest corner. The lane is shared with the neighboring landowner who owns the adjacent 40 acres to the west.
The property has recently undergone a selective timber harvest, with approximately two trees removed per acre. As you enter the property, you’ll immediately notice a newly cleared food plot measuring just under half an acre. This plot is easily accessible without requiring a deep trek into the property, making it convenient for both hunting and maintenance.
Multiple new logging roads lead directly to the food plot, providing excellent access for wildlife. These roads also loop throughout the property, offering easy travel to stand locations and simplifying game retrieval. The timber harvest was carefully executed, removing only mature trees—primarily white oak and walnut—while leaving a strong stand of younger timber behind. This selective cut will encourage new growth, promote forest succession, and allow remaining trees to flourish.
As the property regenerates, it will develop a thicker cover that provides outstanding bedding and nesting habitat. Increased sunlight will also stimulate the growth of forbs and natural browse, enhancing the food supply for wildlife. A substantial number of white and red oaks remain, producing an abundant acorn crop year after year.
Two small creeks run through the property. One creek flows east to west across the southern half of the land and intersects with the second creek near the southeast corner. These creeks provide reliable water sources and serve as natural travel corridors for wildlife.
One of the standout features of this property is its location within the center of a large, contiguous block of timber. This is a rare opportunity to own an all-timber tract in a county where properties like this seldom come to market. With the recent timber harvest completed, the new owner has an excellent opportunity to further customize the property, including the potential to add additional food plots.
