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. The property is rich in wildlife, including plentiful deer, small game, and a variety of native species that thrive in the diverse landscape. Currently used as a full-time residence and cattle operation, the land is well-set for agricultural and recreational use alike. A thoughtful layout includes two separate entrances off the county road—one for the residence and one for pasture and equipment—ensuring that cattle and large machinery never have to use the main driveway. The 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers an inviting open living and dining area, with well-appointed finishes in the kitchen and bathrooms. Just outside, a well-maintained in-ground pool with a diving board provides a great space to relax and enjoy the quiet countryside. Whether you're looking for a full-time homestead on acreage or a comfortable weekend getaway with room to roam, this property delivers a rare combination of utility, privacy, and natural charm.
