Description

An expanse of hardwoods is what one would expect from a property named, “The Oaks on Crowley’s Ridge,” and an expanse of hardwoods is what one finds. 977.3 acres of timber, trails, and wildlife will greet the new owner of this property. With its last timber harvested approximately forty (40) years ago, this property features hardwood timber in the prime of life. Reforestation was done naturally, and it shows that the property lacks the boring, straight lines of plantation-style timber. The understory is abundant, and browse is found throughout. The highlights are the white oaks in the prime of life shining for the world to see. The trail network here is expansive, providing miles of track for outdoor enthusiasts to travel. While hunters have used these trails to access game, they also work for the hiker or mountain biker. Main trails are situated on ridges, while laterals often dip down in the valleys, providing access to the creeks below. This land is fertile. With an NCCPI average rating of 68, this property would be prime tillable farmland if not composed of rolling hills. This is lucky for the lover of big trees and big game. Soil is the key to both and with soils like these it is easy to see why the surrounding area has a reputation for big bucks, turkeys, and timber. Game is abundant. Visits have revealed deer, turkey, and small game, particularly squirrels. Browse is everywhere in the form of green plants and acorns and creeks found in the fertile valleys supply water and coolness. Following the harvest of the surrounding crops, this expansive forest will be home to a horde of wildlife. Blocks are hard to find on Crowley’s Ridge and rarely become available for purchase. This is a brilliant long-term investment in a fertile, timbered expanse of land. Call today!
