Description
Quiet ground, old stonework, and a creek that runs the length of the property set this Bethel Ridge Road homestead apart. Located at 12823 Bethel Ridge Road in Switzerland County, Indiana, the 22.4±-acre property sits well off any main road, offering the kind of privacy that makes for undisturbed hunting and peaceful weekends outdoors.
The original homestead home still stands on the property, a reminder of the families who first worked this ground. Their handiwork shows most clearly in the stone wall that follows the creek, built by early settlers and believed to be more than 100 years old. It is a piece of Southeast Indiana history that adds real character to the land.
Approximately 1,000 yards of trails provide easy movement across the property. The main trail runs the full +/- 600-yard length of the tract from east to west, tracing the creek and the old stone wall, and works well for scouting, checking cameras, and reaching stand locations quietly. Halfway up the hill, a pond serves as a reliable water source, and the ground around it is marked with heavy deer tracks. Creek bottom, hillside, and water in proximity create a natural travel pattern for whitetail and other wildlife.
The property also offers room to set up a camper or RV and enjoy extended stays, whether for a full hunting season, a weekend of trail riding, or simply time outdoors away from the noise. A deeded drive lane leads into the property, and a gate at the entrance adds security for equipment and gear left on site.
Location is a major strength. Bethel Ridge Road sits near State Road 56 and straight north of State Road 156 and the Markland Locks and Dam, where State Road 101 crosses the Ohio River into Gallatin County, Kentucky. Warsaw, Kentucky, and the I-71 corridor are a short drive across the bridge; Florence and Belterra are close by, and Vevay is approximately 14 minutes west. The property is located within the Switzerland County School Corporation.
Both edits are in, and the count is still within range. The rest of the listing is unchanged, and with the township gone, there’s nothing to check on the tax card. Only the two link checks remain.
