Description
82 acre Timber/Recreation Property - Extensive Trail System - Perfect Estate Property to Live and Play on!
Escape to your private sanctuary with this extraordinary 82-acre premier tract nestled in the highly sought-after western region of Stanly County, North Carolina. Properties of this scale are rapidly vanishing in this part of the county, making this an incredibly rare opportunity to build a legacy. Hidden behind a secure, gated entrance accessed on an easement off St. Martin Road, this sprawling land listing offers the ultimate canvas for a grand personal estate, a premier hunting homestead, or a profit-yielding long-term timber investment.
Nature's Paradise & Water Features
Water is the lifeblood of land value, and this property is richly blessed. The eastern boundary is flanked by the expansive beauty of Big Bear Creek, while the southern border is defined by Stony Run Creek. Hidden within the interior is a secluded, small cattle pond from years gone by -a favorite watering hole that local wildlife frequents daily.
Recreational Playground & Sportsman's Paradise
For the ultimate outdoor enthusiast, an extensive and well-maintained trail network winds seamlessly through and around the entire property. Whether you enjoy navigating by UTV, horseback riding, or hiking, you have effortless access to every corner of your land. The diverse habitat harbors a thriving population of game, making it a true private hunting reserve. Expect to encounter:
- Whitetail deer browsing through the timber lines and bedding areas.
- Eastern wild turkeys roosting in the river bottom hardwoods.
- Wood ducks landing smoothly on your private water sources.
- An abundance of small game
Smart Timber Investment
Beyond its recreational allure, this land doubles as a continuous, wealth-building asset. The acreage features robust stands of planted loblolly pines managed in staggered age classes. This strategic variance guarantees a sustainable forestry cycle, allowing the new owner to harvest standing timber over time for immediate returns while younger generations grow to maturity.
