Located off N St Peters Church Rd in Spencer County, this 23+/- acre all-wooded tract offers an excellent opportunity for those seeking a manageable piece of southern Indiana timberland with potential for both recreation and residential use. Situated in a peaceful rural setting within the North Spencer School District, this property combines natural beauty, seclusion, and accessibility.
With nearly 1,400 feet of paved county road frontage, access to the land is convenient and reliable. The property’s terrain features a series of gently rolling hardwood ridges that transition into scenic rock-bottom drainages. These natural features not only enhance the property’s aesthetic appeal but also provide diverse habitats for local wildlife. The mix of elevation changes and mature timber contributes to a sense of privacy and seclusion, even with nearby homes along the road.
A broad, centrally located flat ridge runs through the heart of the property, offering a potential site for constructing a cabin, weekend retreat, or permanent residence. This elevated area provides good drainage and views of the surrounding ridges, making it an attractive location for development. The seller has already completed a passing soil perk test and obtained quotes from both water and electrical utility providers, making it easier for the next owner to plan future improvements. While a driveway and site clearing will need to be completed, these preliminary steps create a clear path toward building.
For recreational use, the land’s topography and timber composition make it suitable for hiking, wildlife observation, or establishing a small trail network. White-tailed deer, turkey, and other native species commonly inhabit the area, and the diverse woodland setting supports a healthy ecosystem. Timber management opportunities may also exist for long-term stewardship and potential value growth.
Evanston, Indiana, is a small rural community located approximately 6 miles southeast of Santa Claus and 23 miles south of Huntingburg, offering convenient access to amenities, schools, and employment centers. The property is about 7 miles from the Ohio River and roughly 33 miles from both Jasper and Owensboro, Kentucky. This proximity to nearby towns and highways ensures convenience while still maintaining a quiet, country setting.
Whether you’re seeking a future homesite, a small-scale hunting property, or an investment in southern Indiana timberland, this 23-acre tract provides a balanced combination of location, terrain, and potential. With utilities accessible, tested soils, and excellent paved frontage, it stands as a practical and scenic piece of ground in Spencer County.
