A PRINTABLE PDF FILE TITLED "PARSON NARRATIVE FOR CONVERSION TO HORSE FARM" IS INCLUDED IN THE HELPFUL FILES SECTION. IT CONTAINS NARRATIVE DISCUSSION, ALONG WITH AN AERIAL AND TOPO WITH SUGGESTED LAND IMPROVEMENTS ILLUSTRATED FOR YOU DEMONSTRATING HOW TO UTILIZE THE NATURAL FEATURES OF THIS PROPERTY TO CREATE A MAGNIFICANT HORSE FARM. The trail systems and natural beauty of the mature timber along the trails are already present. This plan converts the less desirable pine regneration along the ridges to pasture creating magnificant views from the high points into the towering hardwoods along the hillsides leading down to Town Creek wrapping around the property.

The House - large, spacious home on 189.9+/- acres. The 2 story, brick home (built in 2001) offers 4 BR/ 3.5 baths, kitchen, family, den, dining, garage, fenced yard & so much more. Owners just added new hardwood floors and carpet. The acreage offers privacy right outside of town + a variety of opportunities- mixture of pines and hardwoods, fruit trees, food plots, 1.5 +/- miles of frontage on Town Creek which flows into nearby Hillabee Creek.

The Timberland - the timberland contains a mixed age stand of timber and trees providing areas of picturesque mature timber (significant volumes of mature merchantable timber on the north side and east side of property) along the hillsides leading down to Town Creek (1.5 +/- miles of mature timber stands) for hunting and viewing deer and turkey as they feed through the timber, areas of dense vegetation (9 to 17 year old pine and hardwood regeneration) along some hilltops and ridges for bedding and browse areas (center and south side), and younger stands of timber along the drains and hillsides (merchantable pine and hardwood, mostly pulpwood, along drains in center of property) providing food and shelter (not to mention great ambush sites for hunters where these areas open up into the mature timber).

Trails and Roads - approximately 3.35 miles of internal roads and trails with over a one mile trail along the banks of Town Creek, wide enough for most 4 WD trucks, GREAT FOR HORSEBACK RIDING.

Potential Enhancements to the Property - did we mention the 16 acre and 9 acre potential lake sites, not to mention smaller lake sites, and great potential spots for creating manageable floodable duck ponds? The food plots have been historically limed and fertilized. The younger 9 year old regeneration along a few of the ridges would provide some economically feasible locations for creating some really large fields to further enhance this property for recreational hunting, OR AS AN EQUESTRIAN PROPERTY.

Privacy - only a few hundred feet of Co Road frontage: large land ownerships aroung the property: a large, deep, wide and long (1.5 +/- miles) creek surronding two sides of the property (north and east) with good internal road running close to east side.

Water - did I mention water? 1.5 +/- miles along Town Creek, some say its navigatable. A 1.5 mile canoe ride with the grandkids would be lots of fun and you can get home before dark. If you get adventuresome, and have a john boat with motor, its less than a mile from Hillabee Creek which is accessed by fisherman from Lake Martin on a routine basis. Al Highway 22 is not far down stream, nor is the public landing on Lake Martin. Did I mention great potential lake sites?

History of the Property and Why That is Important - it appears the mature pine timber on the ridges was harvested in two stages, about 9 and 17 years ago. These regenerating areas comprise a smaller portion of the total acreage; however, they are located in the center of the property more or less, which 1) is great for managing the wildlife, and 2) deceiving, if you don't get out of the truck and walk off the hillsides. No, the hillsides are not too steep to curtail timber harvests. The mature hardwoods were undoubtedly left when the pine ridges were harvested, thereby creating a great wildlife situation for the new owner. If you are looking for a really good hunting tract at a fair price, you should spend some time on this one.

A UNIQUE PROPERTY AND OPPORTUNITY, TAKE A LOOK AT THIS ONE! GREAT PLACE TO LIVE & PLAY.
