20 Acres | Baldwin County | Lot #14 | The Ranches at Creekside Preserve

20 surveyed acres in Baldwin County, located off Canopy Ct, with a creek running through the middle of the property. A cleared roadway leads down from the front of the lot to an open homesite area, surrounded by younger pines. The elevation starts higher right off Canopy Ct and gradually slopes down toward the creek. Compared to other lots in the community, Lot 14 sits higher than most, a feature that makes it one of the more desirable homesites in the subdivision. After you cross the creek to the south side of the property, the elevation begins to gently rise back up, where you'll find a stand of older pines, a good candidate for food plots, stand sites, or other wildlife habitat improvements. Between the varied topography, the creek, and the mix of younger and older timber, this lot offers a nice balance of a workable homesite and usable recreational ground. Electric service is already on the lot, and the property is served by private roads within the community. Water will be supplied by private well, to be installed by the owner/purchaser. Located just minutes from Bay Minette, about 35 minutes to Mobile, and just over an hour to the beaches of Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, and Pensacola. Baldwin County continues to be one of the fastest growing counties in the entire country, drawing new residents with its low taxes, lower cost of living, and small town feel that's still close to bigger cities and the coast. That growth has kept demand strong for larger acreage tracts like this one, which are becoming harder to find as more of the county develops. Whether you're looking to build now, hold for a future homesite, or simply want land in a high growth market, this property offers solid long term investment potential in an area that isn't slowing down anytime soon. Minimal restrictions and a great mix of build site and recreational ground.
