Description
Situated along a quiet paved county road in the southeastern portion of Orange County, this wooded tract offers a range of potential land uses supported by strong access and available utilities. The property features nearly six hundred feet of frontage on South County Road 425 East. This amount of road frontage provides multiple options for accessing the land and for planning future improvements. The setting is primarily wooded, creating a sense of privacy while maintaining year-round accessibility on a well-maintained public roadway.
Patoka Rural Water Service, Orange REMC electric, and Orange fiber are all available along the road. A private septic system would require a perk test before construction. The area has no zoning regulations, and there are no known deed restrictions, which provides flexibility for future use. The land could support a cabin, a small residence, or general recreational purposes, depending on a buyer’s goals. The rolling and wooded terrain also offers opportunities for general outdoor activities. Surrounding areas include extensive tracts of the Hoosier National Forest, giving the broader region a rural and scenic character.
The property is located just a few minutes north of Marengo, Indiana, which offers basic services and supplies. Paoli, a larger community with additional amenities, is roughly twenty minutes to the north via Valeene Marengo Road. Other nearby locations include English, approximately fifteen minutes to the west, and Milltown, about ten minutes to the southeast. This proximity to multiple towns provides convenient options for groceries, fuel, dining, and other services while keeping the property in a quiet and lightly traveled section of the county.
The surrounding area is known for its mix of forestland, agricultural ground, and recreational destinations. Hoosier National Forest offers public access to hiking, hunting, and general recreation, and the region is known for its rural atmosphere. This parcel’s position along a paved county road makes it accessible in all seasons without requiring specialized vehicles. The combination of utilities at the road, manageable terrain, and a location close to multiple small towns makes this tract suitable for a range of potential uses.
Buyers searching for small acreage with development potential will find that this property offers essential elements, including road frontage, water availability, power, fiber internet, and the flexibility afforded by an area without zoning. Those looking for recreational acreage will appreciate the wooded setting and its proximity to public land. Whether the goal is long-term ownership, weekend use, or establishing a residence, the tract offers a straightforward option in a rural part of Orange County.
