Description
Located near Laurel, Indiana, in Franklin County, this 15.34±-acre parcel sits along the Whitewater River and includes wooded recreational acreage and an ideal build site with convenient paved road access. The property includes a shed with a wood stove, providing a functional base for hunting, fishing, or recreational use. There is even a new outhouse system that hasn't been used yet! A built "staircase" launch area along the riverbank accommodates paddlecraft, including kayaks and small johnboats, making the river directly accessible from the property. The White River in this stretch of Franklin County is a well-regarded recreational waterway, known for fishing opportunities and the scenic character of the surrounding landscape. Approximately 10 acres of the total lie across the river and are accessible on foot during typical late-summer and fall conditions, when water levels are lower, and the river runs shallow. This cross-river acreage adds wooded hunting and recreational ground to the overall property. Wildlife activity along the river corridor is consistent, with deer and other species regularly utilizing the riparian habitat along the banks. Buyers should be aware that a portion of the property falls within the floodplain. There is an approximately 1-acre area near Ott Road that appears to be outside the flood-prone area and may be suitable for a future home or structure, subject to applicable Franklin County zoning, permitting, and floodplain regulations. Buyers are strongly encouraged to conduct independent due diligence regarding flood zone status, buildability, well and septic feasibility, and any other applicable regulatory requirements. River-frontage properties with this level of direct access are uncommon in Franklin County, and parcels along this stretch of the White River rarely change hands. Nearby towns include Laurel, IN (approx. 1-2 miles), Brookville, IN, the Franklin County seat (approx. 12 miles), Metamora, IN (approx. 10 miles), Connersville, IN (approx. 18 miles), and Richmond, IN (approx. 35 miles).
