The estate has been under the management of the owner for over 14 years in improving the land, working with the State Forestry Commission in placing the estate in the first Stewardship program in the county and converting what was once a timbered tract into a perfect golf course type setting complete with 14 ponds - one which was created initially using mule powered labor. The original Stewardship Plan from the Arkansas Forestry Commission is available upon request.
Storage for the farm equipment/hay is easily held in the new 40x60 barn located next to the charming 2 BR 1.5 BA log cabin which overlooks a beautiful stocked pond that offers reflections of the beautiful Ouachita Mtns from the front porch. The cabin offers vaulted ceilings as well as many other nice amenities too numerous to mention.
Behind the cabin and in close proximity to the new barn is a matching charming two story barn which offers 5000 sq ft. and is wired with electric and well insulated, offers bathroom facilities, 6 garage doors, multiple car storage capabilities plus additional storage room and the floor is decked upstairs. This could easily be converted into living quarters and offers great views from the six large windows located in the upstairs loft area.
The 402 contiguous acres m/l offers rolling hills and improved meadow grasses that would support any type of livestock and provide good hay production. Pine and hardwood plantations are also found throughout the estate. Many wonderful building sites are also available for those who might want to develop this area. The estate has 2 wells which offer a plentiful water supply and rural water is available at Hwy 71 or Hwy 28.
