With multiple access points, an extensive trail system, and a gated entrance, this property offers a variety of possibilities for an outdoor retreat, private estate, or long-term land investment.

As you approach the property, a gated entrance and planted pine along the road frontage create a private setting. The winding driveway travels several hundred yards into the property, passing through beautiful rolling fields before arriving at the log cabin. The cabin features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms and is in excellent condition. Its open kitchen, dining, and living area provides a comfortable gathering space, while the main-level primary bedroom, full bathroom, and utility room offer convenient living.

The covered front porch overlooks the rolling fields and private lake, providing a scenic setting to enjoy the surrounding countryside. Whether used as a primary residence, weekend getaway, or hunting cabin, this home offers a comfortable place to enjoy everything the property has to offer.

Just outside the cabin, a new two-door garage built on a concrete slab features a spacious lean-to for additional storage of equipment, ATVs, tractors, and recreational vehicles. There is also a designated fire pit area that provides a gathering spot after a day spent enjoying the property.

One of the main focal points is the approximately 3-acre private lake. The lake offers an attractive setting for fishing, recreation, and enjoying the outdoors. Bass fishing opportunities are an added feature, with several bass caught during the property walkthrough and photography session. The cabin's elevated setting provides views overlooking the lake and surrounding fields. The combination of the lake, cabin, and open ground creates an appealing setting for private gatherings and recreational enjoyment.

The rolling fields are currently utilized for hay production and offer flexibility for continued agricultural use, additional pasture, or potential wildlife food plots. Several openings throughout the timber provide additional opportunities for establishing food plots and managing wildlife habitat.

The majority of the property consists of mature hardwood timber ridges with a diverse mix of oak, hickory, and poplar. There are also multiple areas of planted pine in varying stages of growth, along with a clear-cut area that provides early successional habitat for wildlife. The property has substantial timber resources, and interested buyers should consult with a professional forester to evaluate the timber inventory and potential value. The property is currently enrolled in a tax-deferred timber management program, and buyers should verify the current enrollment requirements and applicable tax considerations.

For the hunting and outdoor enthusiast, this property offers an extensive network of well-maintained interior and perimeter trails that connect much of the acreage. These trails provide access throughout the property by four-wheeler, side-by-side, or tractor. The combination of mature hardwood ridges, natural saddles, benches, creek and river bottoms, and established openings creates a variety of habitat types and hunting locations. Deer sign is evident throughout the property, with rubs and scrapes along the trail network and mature cedar trees showing significant buck activity. Several natural terrain features provide potential stand locations during the rut, while a bottom field food plot location adjoining the Dan River offers another opportunity for wildlife management. The property also provides habitat for wild turkey and other native wildlife.

Another significant feature is the substantial Dan River frontage. The river provides scenic views and opportunities to enjoy the natural surroundings, adding another recreational component to an already diverse property. The combination of river frontage, private lake, rolling fields, and timberland is a notable feature of this Stokes County estate.

Despite its private country setting, the property is conveniently located near Walnut Cove, with access to the shopping, dining, employment, and other amenities of Winston-Salem and Greensboro within a reasonable drive. Multiple access points from different roads provide additional flexibility for accessing the acreage and managing the property.
