The land has around 11 acres of open ground with the rest in timber, a diverse landscape that lends itself well to recreation, hobby farming, outdoor enjoyment, and rural living. McAllister Creek winds through the property, providing a beautiful year-round water source that enhances both the character of the land and the wildlife habitat. Whitetail deer, turkeys, and other wildlife are thriving here, offering recreational enjoyment and hunting opportunities within the applicable regulations. Beyond hunting, this is the type of property that fits a wide variety of activities: hiking trails, camping, gardening, foraging, small-scale farming, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy that comes with owning land.
