Damascus Tract

The Damascus Tract is an incredible property in Kershaw County, South Carolina, featuring 138 acres of undeveloped, rolling terrain, with both upland and bottomland areas, complete with a pond and over half a mile of flowing streams. Conveniently situated in the Westville community, under an hour's drive from the Columbia, SC area and only 1.5 hours from the Charlotte, NC area, the Damascus Tract is an exceptional destination for anyone seeking a rural getaway. With an array of varying ages of merchantable pine and hardwood timber, the Damascus Tract is an incredible investment opportunity. Additionally, the tract features exceptional wildlife habitat, providing prime recreational potential. With nearly 100 acres of planted loblolly and 38 acres of mixed pine-hardwoods, the Damascus Tract is well stocked with varying ages of merchantable timber. A timber cruise completed in late 2021 estimates approximately $300,000 of merchantable timber in today's market. Much of the timber is ready for a thinning, providing an immediate income opportunity, while maintaining a long-term investment. The Damascus Tract features outstanding wildlife habitat, making this a great hunting and recreational tract. Mature hardwoods along the streams and on the western side of the property make excellent roosting sites for wild turkeys, while the understory provides ample cover and forage for white-tailed deer and other wildlife. Featuring over half a mile of flowing streams, coupled with a 1.7-acre pond, the Damascus Tract is not only an incredibly tranquil property, but also provides plentiful water sources for wildlife. Flashboard risers on the pond allow water levels to be controlled for future management. Nearly 2.5 acres of open area underneath the powerline are ready to be planted into a wildlife food plot, providing additional nutrition on the property. There are no conservation easements on the Damascus Tract, allowing you to manage the land to meet your own objectives, but also leaving the potential for future opportunities to add to your conservation legacy. Whether you're looking for a quiet escape, a hunting and recreational destination, timber investment, or all of the above, the Damascus Tract offers a perfect blend of tranquility and long-term value. The Damascus Tract's sister property, the Clearwater Tract, is also available for purchase. Featuring an additional 239 acres and located under 5 minutes away, the Clearwater Tract makes a great addition to the Damascus Tract.
