Located just 11 miles from Centralia and 15 miles from Mount Vernon, this 33+/-acre all-timber tract is a rare find that perfectly blends investment potential with top-tier whitetail and turkey hunting opportunities. Whether you're a seasoned hunter looking for your next honey hole or an investor seeking a property with marketable natural resources, this parcel delivers on all fronts.
The property is covered in mature timber with a significant volume of marketable hardwoods, offering an excellent return on investment potential. The current owner has been offered $40,000 for a select cut. Whether you're interested in a selective harvest now or managing the timber over time for greater future value, this land provides flexibility and immediate asset value that sets it apart from the average recreational tract.
From a hunting standpoint, this farm checks every box. It features a diverse topography made up of winding ridges and natural elevation changes that not only create scenic views, but also establish ideal travel corridors for deer movement. You'll find heavy deer sign throughout, with well-worn trails pointing to strong whitetail activity. Multiple small creeks snake through the property, eventually feeding into a larger creek that cuts across the land — creating natural funnels and pinch points perfect for strategic stand placements. These waterways not only enhance the landscape, they increase wildlife traffic, making this a high-opportunity piece for bowhunters and gun hunters alike.
The turkey habitat here is equally impressive, with open understory pockets, creek-bottom roosting areas, and high ridgelines that birds naturally gravitate to. Whether you're chasing a spring gobbler or glassing for deer sign in the fall, this property offers year-round outdoor potential.
In addition to its natural features, the property benefits from convenient road frontage and has utilities nearby, adding long-term value and development flexibility. Access is easy, yet the land still provides the seclusion and layout serious hunters are looking for.
