Description
This property is located in east-central Hancock County, just northeast of Fountain Green, and offers a strong combination of habitat, access, and hunting opportunities. Access is via an easement road along the southern boundary, allowing for easy access into the property. A smaller block of timber on the west side creates a natural visual barrier from the road and serves as a bedding area and sanctuary. The main timber block on the eastern side features rolling terrain with mixed hardwood timber and several north-to-south ridges, creating ideal travel corridors and stand locations.
Several habitat improvements have been completed, including trail development, hinge cutting, and food plot implementation. A one-acre food plot is located on the south side of the property, with thick bedding cover directly to the north, creating an excellent setup for early- and late-season hunting. Additionally, 1.5 acres are enrolled in CRP, generating $263 annually through 2035, surrounding the food plot.
A unique feature of this property is the added value of deeded hunting rights on the neighboring tillable acres to the east and west of the small block of timber, bringing the total huntable footprint to approximately 80+/- acres.
If you are searching for a mostly timber tract with strong habitat and expanded hunting access in eastern Hancock County, this property is well worth a look. Contact Land Specialist Tyler Sellens today for more information or to schedule a private showing.
