Improvement...

Improvements: There are no structural improvements on this property making it a clean slate for a new owner to make it their own. The current owners have developed nearly 2 miles of ATV/UTV trails throughout the property as well as several food plots and stand sites.

Trees, grasses, and forbs: The property boasts rich, high-quality soil that supports a diverse blend of hardwoods and upland timber along with a pine plantation covering most of the property. Different hardwoods include red oak varieties, willow oak, water oak among other desirable white oak species, black walnut, and hickory. Other species of trees consist of an abundance of loblolly pines, some native pine, willow and river birch in wetland areas, and a mix of black gum and sweet gum, elm, and some cedar. With the average age of the pine timber being approximately 25+ years old, timber thinning/production may present a potential future income source for the landowner. The dense tree coverage enhances recreational opportunities and provides privacy, contributing to the property's overall visual appeal. The hardwoods and drainages provide contiguous travel corridors for deer and the pines have been planted for both aesthetics and future income.

Water: The property is also well-watered with several creeks and streams running across the tract. Over 2,560’ of Wilburn Creek runs through the western and southern portions of the property. In addition to Wilburn Creek, there are approx. 3,375’ of tributaries that feed into Wilburn Creek. On the eastern side of the property there is a spring that occurs just inside the property line and drains into the main tributary in the central part of the tract. Lastly, the property sits well within the Carrizo Wilcox aquifer, so a water well is certainly a possibility if desired.

Elevation changes approximately 100 feet with the highest elevation on the property being just above 350 ASL, gently sloping down to just below 250 ASL on the southern end. There is a nice lake site on the eastern portion of this tract, but needs to be verified by the proper lake building authorities.
