This property has it all well, except for legal access and timber. But other than that, it is a rare find.
Located north of Cherokee, AL, off Riverton Rose Trail and in an area known for having tens of thousands of acres of timberland with no homes and only one public road, this property is a recreational gem. If you are coming in from outside the area, it is easily accessible from Highway 72 or the Natchez Trace and eventually Riverton Rose Trail. That road alone is worth the trip as it winds its way along Pickwick Lake and the Tennessee River. The road leaving Rose Trail is named Salting Ground Road (we dont know why) and winds its way along ridges to the propertys western boundary. This access is not deeded but has been the historic access to the property for over a hundred years.

The topography is moderately to steeply sloped, but the high vantage points give incredible views of the Tennessee River just a few hundred yards away. A healthy population of wildlife call this property home and the cool waters of Shady Branch cater to their needs. The timber on the property has been sold and is scheduled to be harvested this year (2019). Not only will the harvest open the views of the river even more, but the resulting regeneration of vegetation will continue to attract wildlife from all sides. Of course, stream zones are being maintained along Shady Branch and a copy of the timber sale agreement is available for interested buyers upon request.
This property is being sold pursuant to court action, and any sale of the property must be approved by the Circuit Court of Colbert County.
