This two-story cabin presents a rare chance to acquire a private retreat that directly borders nearly 7,000 acres of the Martin Hill Wild Area within Buchanan State Forest. The structure itself is partially finished, giving the future owner the freedom to shape the interior design to match their own style and needs. At present, the cabin remains a dry structure without running water or a septic system, but this simplicity offers a clean slate for anyone who wants to install modern utilities or keep it rustic for an off-grid experience.
The land surrounding the cabin is heavily wooded with stands of very mature timber. This mix of hardwoods not only adds to the natural beauty of the setting but also provides long-term potential value for those interested in sustainable timber management. As the last cabin on the loop road, the property is exceptionally private and quiet, allowing you to enjoy seclusion that is increasingly hard to find in today’s market.
For those who thrive in the outdoors, the location is unmatched. The adjoining Martin Hill Wild Area offers thousands of acres for public use, including hunting, hiking, and exploring. Wildlife is abundant, and the opportunity to step directly from your property into a vast wilderness setting makes this location especially attractive. Deer, turkey, and other game species are common, and trails through the state forest provide year-round recreation.
This property is an appealing choice for buyers who value privacy, outdoor opportunities, and investment potential. It could serve as a secluded weekend getaway, a base camp for hunting seasons, or a long-term recreational property. With proper planning, it could also be developed into a more complete retreat with the installation of water, septic, and additional improvements.
Properties with this level of adjacency to state forest land seldom come available, particularly with the advantage of mature timber and end-of-road seclusion. This listing is shown by appointment only. Contact us today to schedule a private tour and see firsthand the opportunities this unique offering presents.
