Located on the eastern edge of Sand Mountain, a picturesque setting is what you’ll find on this diverse tract. The property is accessed by a deeded easement, and private gravel road leads you back into this peaceful valley. There are open, flat, meadows up front as you enter and winding mountain stream flowing out of a hardwood hollow down between the meadows. About 70 percent of the property was clearcut a few years ago and is coming back with a young stand of timber, which is great bedding and browse for deer and cover for all other wildlife. The hardwoods that remain are very mature and provide an outstanding mast crop in the fall. The timber was cut in a way that there is a lot of “edge” habitat and I think you’ll agree, the mix of topography, open fields, and timber just give it an aesthetically pleasing look and feel. There is a nice trail system throughout that gains you access to...

There is a nice trail system throughout that gains you access to all parts of the property. One place that stands out and is the centerpiece of this tract is on a knob that is up on a high hill, it currently has a campsite there and would make an excellent cabin site overlooking the scenic valley below. Located just north of Fort Payne and only minutes from Interstate 59 and less than an hour from Chattanooga this could make an easy access family retreat, for hunting, camping, hiking or even a home place with a farm, garden, small pasture down on the flat portion, leaving the ridge portion for hunting, hiking, timber investment. Area attractions would include Little River Canyon National Preserve, Desoto State Park, Little River WMA, Weiss Lake and Lake Guntersville are just a short drive away as well. Give the maps and photos a look and use your imagination on this one to create a perfect property for you. Please give me a call and I would be glad to schedule a private showing.
