Description

Discover the potential of this beautifully improved 16.2-acre rural retreat, where thoughtful land management has transformed once overgrown and underutilized ground into a productive, accessible, and wildlife-rich setting. A 6-acre tillable hay field anchors the property and leads to a building site, perfectly positioned to capture scenic views featuring the newly created pond and surrounding woods. Extensive improvements along the northwest boundary include a jointly managed creek that has been dredged and widened to enhance water flow and overall land usability. In the northeast corner, a previously low-lying 2.5-acre area has been completely reimagined through significant earthwork, raised terrain, and carefully planted clover and grasses to support both function and habitat. Today, the pond serves as a thriving ecosystem, attracting nesting geese and ducks, along with frequent visits from deer, turkey, and other native wildlife. Additional enhancements include the removal of invasive buckthorn, clearing of dead trees, stump removal, and reestablishment of the land with a diverse mix of tree species such as plum, red oak, white oak, hackberry, maple, and black walnut, creating long-term beauty and future mast production. Offering a rare blend of privacy, usability, and convenient access near Highway 12, this property presents a clear vision for your future home, hobby farm, or recreational escape. Your dream property starts here.
