Imagine stepping onto your back deck with a cup of morning coffee and having hunting, fishing, hiking, and ranching all at your fingertips. This rolling terrain consists of +/-114 acres of excellent grazing grasses, with the balance being excellent hardwood timber, two ponds, two seasonal creek beds, and expired CRP. There are multiple pockets/pinch points that would be excellent food plot locations for the local wildlife. Additionally, the thick stands of timber and creek beds, coupled with the two scenic ponds help create a supreme wildlife habitat. The large 2.5-acre pond sits in the northeast corner of the property making a great potential fishing hole and loafing area for the local waterfowl.  With off-roading ATVs, private water access, multiple species of wildlife, and mature timber, this is truly a property for one who appreciates the outdoor life.
