This Appanoose County property is an outstanding opportunity for a first-time landowner or someone looking to add a high-quality satellite hunting tract to their portfolio. Consisting of 10 mostly wooded acres, the property features approximately a one-acre opening near the hard-surfaced road that is currently established as a food plot. While this would make an excellent building site or country acreage, don't let the size fool you. There are a lot of features packed into these 10 acres that make it an exceptional hunting property. As you enter the farm, you'll immediately notice the one-acre food plot. What makes this plot especially effective is the way it was designed. The brush and trees that were cleared were strategically piled along the west side, forcing deer to enter around the northwest corner & pass through a narrow gate opening before stepping into the food plot. This creates a natural travel funnel that offers excellent stand opportunities. The timber consists primarily of mature white oak, red oak, & several species of hickory. Two prominent ridge tops form a U-shaped layout, providing additional opportunities to expand the existing food plot or establish multiple other plots. What truly sets this farm apart is its location. Although it consists of only 10 acres, it sits in the middle of a neighborhood containing hundreds of acres of quality timber. With very few nearby food sources, this property becomes a natural destination for deer traveling through.
