The land itself is mostly wooded with a variety of mature, mixed hardwoods, planted pine timber, rolling pastures and a very nice, centrally located 8.5-acre lake. Elevation on the property ranges from an approximate low of 280 ASL to an approximate high of 350 ASL. The planted pine timber is estimated to be approximately 12 years old is estimated to cover approximately 160 acres of the property. The lake is a reservoir style lake with an earthen dam, pipe drain and earthen spillway. It is situated in the central portion of the property with tree lined shores and apparent good depth and water quality. The owners report good historic fishing with some limited waterfowl opportunities. The combination of the dense timber, creeks and even a second small pond results in great wildlife potential. The property basically has dead end type access so privacy is at a premium here.
Improvements consist of a 3 / 2 frame cabin situated on the western shore of the lake. This well appointed structure features a large open concept kitchen / living room / dining area as well as a second recreational room / den and three bedrooms upstairs. The structure opens onto a wood deck overlooking the lake with a wood deck walkway connecting the pier. The pier has a fish cleaning station and plenty of deck space to fish and enjoy the view. The area surrounding the cabin is also improved with a two-car carport, a storage building and a water well.
