Approximately 140 acres with an ideal blend of open pasture and rolling wooded areas, this property offers the balance, privacy, and natural beauty that buyers love. The mix of habitat is exceptional—expansive openings transition into wooded breaks that feel natural and secluded, giving the land a much larger impression than its surveyed size. Mature oaks are abundant throughout, especially along the winding creek corridor. The creek appears to run year-round and creates a series of water holes that support both livestock and wildlife.
