Historic Farmhouse Timber Hunting
Deer Creek Road : Centreville, AL 35042
Bibb County, Alabama
Ranch Description
Searching for a timber and hunting tract with a good amount of hardwood with a farmhouse on it? Here it is. This property is for sale for the first time in nearly a century.
It is located off of Deer Creek Road near Centreville. The historic farmhouse and beautiful old barn is the perfect camphouse or lodge and has power, city water, and a well available. The place was a working family farm for decades, as evidenced by the old scuppernong, rose, and muscadine trellises in the yard and the giant black walnut tree out front with black walnuts littering the yard.
The property was chosen as farm many years ago in part because of its flat topography, abundance of creeks, and fertile soils. Copperas Creek, which is a large, year-round creek, runs along the eastern side of the property. There are two additional creeks that cross from east to west through the tract which provide excellent water sources as well.
From a timber perspective, the property is comprised of 100+- acres of eleven-year-old pine plantation and 65+- acres of quality hardwood. The tract is an excellent candidate for a timber investment with its 90 average site index. The pines should be thinned soon, which provides immediate income potential for the new owner.
The hardwoods, surrounding farm land, abundant water sources, and bedding/shelter/nesting cover provided by the pine plantations create a superb habitat for wildlife. The tract is an excellent deer and turkey hunting property with healthy numbers of each. Squirrels and other small game are plentiful throughout the bottomland hardwood areas.
All in all, this is as diverse and unique property as you will find. Not only that, but it is super-convenient to Birmingham (60 miles), to Tuscaloosa (45 miles) and Montgomery (64 miles).
With hunting season upon us, I do not expect this property to last long. For more info or to see the property, contact by phone, text, or e-mail.
