This tract offers a unique opportunity in southeastern Indiana just outside the unincorporated village of Friendship, Indiana, home of the National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association and one of the region’s largest flea markets. The property is fully wooded and features road frontage on two sides, totaling approximately 1,800 feet of frontage, providing accessible entry and multiple potential site locations.
The terrain rises from a lower creek valley upward to higher ground, offering both a scenic setting and functional variety. At the bottom of the slope is a beautiful creek where deer and turkey are known to bed and feed in the afternoons, adding genuine recreational and wildlife value. The timber is mature and includes sporadic cedar, a great variety of habitat for game.
With suitable planning, the property could serve as a home site on the hilltop, or a gravel area could be developed for camper/RV rental or guest use, leveraging the proximity to local events and attractions. Utilities and site costs will depend on selections; prospective buyers should investigate available services and septic/site work.
Access is strong, with road frontage on two sides. The nearby town of Friendship is just down the hill, where dining is convenient, including the local tavern in town. The nearby towns of Versailles, Indiana, and Dillsboro, Indiana, provide additional shopping, dining, and services. Regionally, the area is rich in outdoor recreation, including the nearby Versailles State Park and Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge for hiking, fishing and camping.
The combination of build potential, recreational access, and access to local amenities positions this tract as a versatile land option in a desirable rural event-oriented locale. The property presents a practical opportunity for hunting, recreation, camping or investment in southeast Indiana land.
