Description

Located along the Tradewater River in Webster County, Kentucky, this diverse hunting farm offers an appealing combination of agricultural acreage, timbered habitat, and extensive river frontage in an area known for producing big bucks. With an approximately 50/50 blend of tillable ground and timber, the property provides a well-rounded landscape with abundant edge habitat, natural travel corridors, and opportunities for continued wildlife management. Approximately 52± acres of tillable ground, 4,500 feet of frontage along the Tradewater River, and numerous potential food plot locations make this an attractive property for deer and turkey hunting. The farm also features approximately 1,900 feet of road frontage, established entry points, utilities available along the roadway, and build site potential. One of the property's defining features is its location along the Tradewater River. With approximately 4,500 feet of river frontage, the farm encompasses a substantial stretch of this natural wildlife corridor. The Tradewater River is known as a major rut travel corridor in the area, providing opportunities to encounter bucks moving through the river bottom habitat during the breeding season. The combination of river frontage, timbered cover, and surrounding agricultural ground creates a landscape with numerous opportunities for identifying deer movement patterns and establishing strategic hunting locations. The farm features approximately 52± acres of tillable ground, providing a significant agricultural component within the property. These fields offer opportunities for continued crop production while also contributing to the surrounding wildlife habitat. The extensive boundaries between the tillable acreage and adjoining timber create valuable edge habitat, providing natural transitions between feeding areas and wooded cover. Several locations throughout the farm offer excellent opportunities for establishing wildlife food plots. These areas could be developed to complement the existing agricultural acreage and provide additional food sources in strategic locations. The combination of tillable fields, potential food plots, and mast-producing timber offers flexibility for buyers interested in managing seasonal food sources and developing a more extensive hunting layout. The approximately 50/50 mixture of agricultural ground and timber is another important feature of the property. This balance creates extensive edge and transition habitat throughout the farm, allowing wildlife to move between open feeding areas and wooded cover. These transitions provide opportunities for hunters to identify travel routes and position stands along field edges, timber corridors, and other natural movement areas. The terrain is gently rolling, adding variety to the landscape while creating subtle elevation changes throughout the property. The rolling topography transitions into the Tradewater River corridor, where the combination of timber, agricultural openings, and river bottom habitat creates additional opportunities for wildlife movement. These terrain features provide flexibility when evaluating stand locations and developing hunting strategies for different portions of the season. The timber consists of a mixture of softwoods and mast-producing hardwoods. The hardwood component provides seasonal food sources for whitetails and other wildlife, particularly during the fall when acorns and other hard mast become available. The softwoods contribute additional cover and habitat diversity, complementing the surrounding agricultural acreage. The wooded portions of the farm provide important cover for wildlife while connecting the agricultural fields with the Tradewater River corridor. This combination of feeding areas, timbered habitat, and natural travel routes creates opportunities for deer movement throughout the property. The extensive edge between open ground and timber further enhances the variety of hunting locations available. The Tradewater River is a particularly important feature during the whitetail rut. River corridors often serve as natural travel routes through agricultural landscapes, and this stretch of the Tradewater is recognized for its role in regional deer movement. With approximately 4,500 feet of frontage, the property offers a lengthy section of this corridor to explore when scouting for buck travel routes, crossings, and potential stand locations. The property is situated in an area with a strong reputation for producing mature whitetails, and plenty of deer sign has been observed throughout the farm. The combination of agricultural ground, mast-producing hardwoods, river frontage, and extensive edge habitat provides several important components for supporting deer activity throughout the hunting season. In addition to its whitetail hunting opportunities, the farm offers habitat suitable for turkey hunting. The mixture of open fields, wooded areas, and river bottom habitat provides a varied landscape for spring hunting. The agricultural edges and timbered corridors offer additional locations to evaluate when scouting for turkey activity. Access is another notable advantage of this Webster County property. Approximately 1,900 feet of road frontage provides substantial access along the property boundary, with established entry points already in place. Multiple access locations offer flexibility when reaching different portions of the farm for hunting, agricultural activities, and general property maintenance. The road frontage also adds to the property's potential for future improvements. Utilities are available along the roadway, and the property offers build site potential for a country home, hunting cabin, or recreational basecamp. The combination of gently rolling terrain, available utilities, and established access provides opportunities to evaluate future building locations while maintaining the property's agricultural and recreational character. Any construction would be subject to applicable requirements and site conditions. For buyers interested in a hunting property with an agricultural component, this farm offers a versatile combination of features. The tillable acreage provides opportunities for continued farming or wildlife food plot management, while the timbered portions contribute natural cover, seasonal food sources, and travel corridors. The extensive river frontage adds another dimension to the recreational possibilities. The relationship between the agricultural fields, wooded habitat, and Tradewater River corridor is one of the property's strongest features. The combination creates opportunities to develop hunting strategies around natural deer movement, particularly during the rut when bucks may travel along the river and associated timbered corridors. With approximately 52± tillable acres, 4,500 feet of Tradewater River frontage, abundant edge habitat, mast-producing hardwoods, and excellent food plot potential, this property offers a strong foundation for deer and turkey hunting. Its location in an area known for big bucks, combined with substantial road frontage, multiple established entry points, and available utilities, further enhances its appeal.
