Description
Located at 1869 Boss Hogg Road, near Morgantown in Butler County, this 112.98-acre tract offers a versatile combination of off-grid living, hunting opportunities, and long-term land investment. The property offers an off-grid cabin powered by a modern solar system, a large barn, a smaller storage building, open ground for food plots or homesteading, and frontage on two creeks. It lies in a quiet rural setting, offering privacy and the natural resources necessary for both recreation and self-sufficient living. Access is from Boss Hogg Road, a lightly traveled county road that leads back into a secluded landscape. Once on the property, an interior road system and a perimeter trail provide good access to most areas of the farm. These trails make it easy to check stands, work ground, haul equipment, or access creek bottoms for hunting. The cabin and its improvements are situated in a central location that offers privacy while remaining functional for daily, seasonal, or weekend use. Approximately 5–6 acres of open ground surrounding the cabin and barn area are suitable for gardening, orchard expansion, small livestock, or wildlife food plots. The current owner has planted roughly 100 red plum trees, providing an early start to long-term fruit production and wildlife attraction. A stocked pond near the improvements offers fishing opportunities and a steady water source for wildlife. The remainder of the property is primarily composed of mixed hardwoods, with timber select cut around 1998. The stand is now in a solid stage of regrowth, providing bedding cover, mast production, and visibility for stand placement as well as significant timber value and investment potential. The rolling terrain includes ridges, points, hollows, and creek bottoms, creating a blend of habitat types throughout the property. Water features are among the property’s strongest assets. Welches Creek forms the northern boundary, providing a distinct line and a dependable water corridor. Grancer Creek flows through the eastern side, and the two creeks converge near the northeast corner of the farm. These riparian areas funnel deer movement naturally and provide excellent travel corridors for both deer and turkeys. Combined with the pond and scattered openings, the layout supports strong wildlife activity throughout the year. The off-grid cabin offers shelter and essential functionality for extended stays, eliminating reliance on public utilities.
The electrical system is anchored by two brand-new Tesla Powerwall 3 units, paired with 32 solar panels, each approximately 300 watts in size, installed around four years ago. This system provides dependable power for lighting and appliances. Sanitation needs are met through a composting toilet, an outhouse, and a gravity-fed outdoor shower. Water is currently hauled in, but the cabin can be upgraded with plumbing, a cistern, and a filtration system if desired. Appliances that remain include two propane stoves, a window AC unit, a wood stove for heat, and an electric refrigerator. In addition to the cabin, the property features a large barn suitable for storing equipment, UTVs, tractors, firewood, or small livestock projects. A separate, smaller storage building provides secure space for tools, hunting gear, fuel storage, etc. These two structures significantly increase the property’s functionality for both homesteading and seasonal hunting use. The hunting setup is well-established, featuring three shooting houses and multiple ladder and lock-on stands that remain on the property. The combination of open ground, creeks, rolling hardwood forests, and natural funneling areas contributes to a healthy deer population. The seller reports a strong history of quality bucks and consistent turkey activity. With additional food plot development, selective timber management, or continued orchard growth, the property offers room to enhance both habitat and hunting layouts. Mineral rights are reported to be intact and will transfer to the buyer. The property is well-suited for buyers seeking off-grid living, recreational hunting, a weekend retreat, or a long-term land investment supported by timber growth and natural resources. Its location near Morgantown provides convenient access to amenities while maintaining a secluded rural feel.
