This is your chance to purchase 152 acres of upland hardwood timber that is tucked away in a great location just minutes from town. The property was recently harvested, however, there is still an abundant number of white oaks on the property, and the resulting thick understory provides excellent habitat for deer and turkey. Multiple food plots are scattered throughout the property and are accessed via an established trail system. The property is accessed along a gravel drive off of Pump House Road and is close to the Shawnee National Forest and Cedar Lake which provides additional recreational opportunities.
