Land for Sale in Ohio
For Sale: 79 acres +/-, 0 Alderman Road, Dover Township, OH 45761
Call Ohio Land Pro Tyler Haessly today at 740-525-4582 for your own private showing. This 79 acre property on Alderman Road sits five minutes from the city limits of Athens, Ohio and overlooks the Hocking River Valley from a hardwood ridge. The current owner is a successful trial lawyer who has spent 27 years harvesting giant Ohio whitetails, He identified this tract after a two year search for a parcel with the right mix of mature hardwoods, ridge top openings, and young clearcuts that hold deer. He purchased the property in the spring of 2025 and immediately went to work building it into a turnkey hunting operation. The maintained gas line that runs along the main ridge was frost seeded into a long food plot by Matt Stuart, one of the best food plot farmers in the area, and the plot produced outstanding results despite the 2025 drought. Other sections of the pipeline corridor were left alone to provide browse, bedding, and waist high cover, with the gas company mowing every two years to keep heavy woody growth from taking over. Roughly 20 acres of four year old clearcuts run through the middle of the property, providing the thick browse and bedding cover that holds bucks year round. The owner hired Grant Fox of Eden Outdoors to cut forestry mulcher travel lanes through these clearcuts, connecting hardwood blocks and opening natural corridors that deer immediately started using. Three stand locations were designed and built around these travel corridors, each with the right wind setup for serious hunting. The main ridge and the surrounding hardwoods are filled with mature oaks and some pines, and no timbering has been done, so the future owner has the option to leave the woods alone or develop a timber management plan. The 2025 season was rested with no hunting allowed, and the owner and one of his employees patrolled the farm weekly to make sure neighbors honored the same off limits status the parcel has held for over 30 years. From a non hunting perspective, this is a solid legacy property with a strong homesite location above the main paved road, providing utilities at the road, privacy, and long views of wildlife out the back door. The homesite is positioned so the prevailing winds do not push scent from the cabin or home back into the core hunting area. Easy ridge top access from the east makes this property simple to hunt, manage, and develop. All mineral rights transfer with the sale. With Ohio University and the city of Athens just five minutes away and Hocking Hills State Park roughly 30 miles southwest, this property combines serious wildlife habitat with the convenience of a university town and the recreation pull of southeast Ohio.
