Description

This prime Ozark property is tucked in the pristine mountains between Compton, AR, and Ponca, AR. The headwaters of the famous Buffalo National River are just a few minutes south. It just rarely comes together for a property to check every box an outdoor enthusiast, farmer, hunter, homesteader, or investor would have. This ideal location puts you in the heart of some of the most coveted parts of this region. This unique topographical configuration bodes well for about any use. It has everything from rock formations to large hardwood-covered ridges, from lush creek bottoms to deep and gnarly ravines. Making your way through the recently revamped, excellent, deeded easement road, you cascade in from the top of the mountain through the dense timber. Numerous small trail offshoots have been cleaned up for easy access to ample build sites, hiking locations, hunting set-ups, and more. The impressive stand of marketable White Oak will leave you in awe as it covers a majority of the hillsides, blanketing this beautiful tract. In the middle of the property is a wonderful pasture consisting of native grasses, fescue, Bermuda, and more. Some of the meadows have been cut for hay in the recent past. These lush bottoms run alongside the spectacular Kenner Creek. This particular stretch of creek is on the property for over 1 mile, runs year-round, and is mostly fed by springs from the surrounding hills. The creek is ideal for watering livestock, an advanced habitat for wildlife, and, of course, for some recreational enjoyment that these freshwater creeks offer. The creek is lined with beautiful rock, large pools, and massive trees, and the water is loaded with fish, minnows, crawdads, and other species. The serenity of the marvel has to be experienced to truly appreciate how special the privacy and exceptional setting really is. There is also an old cabin/homestead located near the bottoms. There is electricity and a small metal shop as well. The park-like setting has large walnut trees, mature pines, a cypress tree, and other gorgeous trees, adding to the tranquil setting around the homesite. The water source is a remarkable year-round spring bubbling from the rocks on the hillside next to the homesite, and it is a treasure. This crisp, cold, and refreshing spring water is something to be cherished. Several miles of trails, recently mowed and trimmed, navigate to multiple areas with ease by ATV, UTV, or even a small 4x4 vehicle. The resident wildlife consists of whitetail deer, turkey, black bear, and more. The seclusion and lack of pressure make this an ideal hunting tract for about any species you can hunt in the state. The proximity to several key areas of interest with national attractions also makes this a rare opportunity for investors. If you are looking for something to be that legitimate “getaway,” look no further. The combination of assets and features that this Ozark gem has to offer is unmatched, and I can’t wait to show it to you. Call today for your private showing.
