Description
This 74.26± acre property in Owen County offers a combination of wooded acreage, water features, and access that supports a variety of recreational and residential uses. The property consists of two parcels with access available from both the north via a gravel easement road and from the south, providing flexibility for entry and use. The land is primarily wooded, with a mix of Indiana hardwoods. A recent selective timber harvest has established a network of trails throughout the property, making it accessible for ATV use, hiking, and general land management. The harvest has also opened portions of the canopy, encouraging early successional growth that can support wildlife habitat and forage. A recently constructed Amish-built log cabin on the property provides functional shelter for overnight stays or seasonal use. The cabin is off-grid, with the option for a future owner to explore extending electric service or using a generator, depending on their needs. Water features include multiple small brooks and frontage along Beech Creek, which runs through the property and provides a consistent natural water source. In addition, there is an approximately 1± acre pond that offers opportunities for fishing and general recreation. The area surrounding the pond may also serve as a potential location for a future cabin site, home construction, or camper setup, subject to local regulations and approvals. The property supports a range of outdoor activities, including hunting for deer, turkey, and small game, as well as seasonal pursuits such as mushroom foraging. Its wooded terrain, water sources, and trail system contribute to its recreational enjoyment. Located in a rural setting, the property offers privacy while remaining within reasonable driving distance to nearby communities. It is approximately 20 minutes to Spencer and Clay City, providing access to basic services, dining, and shopping. This would be a great property to go in with a friend or family member and become landowners together, given the two-parcel configuration and dual access points. Opportunities like this seldom come along. Call to schedule your own private showing before this land is gone.
