REAL ESTATE: Discover 142 acres of secluded woods, perfect for the avid outdoorsman, featuring harvestable timber, growing timber, recreational acreage, and oil and gas income. This property, previously landlocked, now boasts frontage access on CR 349, with a newly installed culvert for driveway access to 5525 CR 349, ensuring easy entry to your private retreat.
The land holds immense potential as a prime hunting ground with some effort in grooming existing trails and clearing areas for food plots. The woods are part of a larger, secluded wooded expanse located just west of Millersburg, providing a serene and private setting. Additionally, there is a 20 x 30 salvage structure with a stone basement on the property, offering potential for storage or a rustic cabin.
Leased for oil and gas, the property has a lease held by production. It currently hosts five wells—four of which are producing, with one out of production. Detailed information on the wells is available on the RES.bid website, with access to the wells across neighboring lands.
This land is under CAUV, having been selectively timbered over the years, and boasts both mature and growing timber. A power line crosses the southeastern portion of the property, adding to its utility and potential for development. Whether you're looking for a recreational haven, a hunting paradise, or an investment opportunity, this property offers a wealth of possibilities.
