Description
Opportunity awaits at this huge, prime hunting & outdoor recreational as well as agricultural property, featuring diverse habitat suitable for growing trophy bucks! This large tract is a perfect blend of fields and forest, with ~3460' of stream running through a small dip between two gentle ridgelines. Near the pinnacle, there is a natural pond in a clearing, offering a beautiful respite for hiking, a strategic location for treestand, or setting up camp or building a cabin in this ideal location. There is a mix of 54+/- acres of open, active tillable fields, some newly seeded, mostly orchard grass and red clover, as well as another 52+/- acres of older ag fields, which could easily be brought back into active tillable fields or utilized as pasture. You could start your own farm operation or lease the land to area farmers for additional income. There is an internal road system on the farm as well as extensive trails leading throughout the property. Over 200 acres of woodlands, some of which are currently in a 480A Forestry Management Program and provide tax relief on the property, while other areas of the woodlot are not in the program, 20 acres of which currently offer mature timber ready to be harvested bringing in an immediate influx of income.
