Description
This 48 acre property Berrien County, Michigan offers a combination of timber, tillable acreage, and natural water features that support a variety of recreational and agricultural uses. The property includes approximately 18 acres of tillable farmland that is currently farmed in a corn and soybean rotation. The remaining acreage consists of rolling hardwood timber intersected by a creek bottom that provides water and travel corridors for local wildlife.
The timber stand contains a mix of mature hardwood species including walnut, maple, oak and beech. The terrain varies across the property with a gently rolling topography and wooded ridges that overlook the creek bottom. This mix of habitat types creates natural edges between timber and open ground. These natural land features can provide favorable conditions for wildlife movement throughout the property.
The agricultural acreage is currently being utilized for row crop production, which may provide an opportunity for continued farming activity depending on the preferences of a future owner and any applicable lease arrangements. The farmland also creates open ground that could support additional recreational uses such as wildlife habitat improvements, food plots, or continued agricultural production.
Public recreation opportunities are also available nearby. Boyle Lake State Game Area is located in the vicinity and offers public land access for outdoor recreation including trails, kayaking, hunting and wildlife observation. The Lake Michigan shoreline is also within driving distance and provides access to boating, fishing, and public beaches along the Southwest Michigan coast.
The Lake Michigan shoreline and several Southwest Michigan beach communities are within a short drive, offering seasonal recreation including boating, fishing and public beach access. The region is also known for vineyards and wineries that contribute to the local agricultural and tourism economy.
Based on surrounding land use patterns and typical rural development in the area, the property may present potential for a future home site subject to local zoning regulations, township approvals and applicable permits. Buyers should verify any development or building requirements with the appropriate local authorities.
With a combination of tillable acreage, mature hardwood timber, a natural creek corridor, and proximity to both rural communities and Lake Michigan recreation, this Berrien County property offers a mix of agricultural and recreational characteristics within Southwest Michigan. Don't wait - get a hold of me as I'd Love to show you around this special property!
