As a timber investment, a large portion of the site has recently been planted with pine trees that will be ready for their first thinning in 7-8 years. In the meantime, as the pines grow, they will be providing great habitat for local wildlife. A small pond on the portion of the tract south of CR 98 offers a nice wildlife watering hole. The topography on the north side of the road is such that a new pond might be built on that part of the tract, as well. Whitetail deer and turkey are plentiful in this area. In fact, if you look closely at the drone video that accompanies this listing, you will see two whitetail deer traversing the property.
Internal roads offer good access throughout the property. These roads would be good for accessing food plots or hunting stands and for off-road four-wheeling.
