Large tracts like this one do not often hit the market in this area. Located in the northern panhandle, you are only a few miles from both Ohio and Pennsylvania. The property is only a half-mile to the Ohio River as the crow flies. It’s a 36-minute drive to Pittsburgh International airport and 15 minutes to Weirton, WV. The location couldn’t be more ideal – with blacktop road access, electric, and public water available. If you’re a diehard hunter, you can hunt three states in less than a 30-minute drive! It is also located really close to Tomlinson Run State Park. The lake is less than a mile from the property and offers excellent fishing for largemouth, smallmouth, crappy, and trout. The Ohio River also offers excellent fishing opportunities for bass, catfish, and musky. Pleasant Hills Golf Course, Raccoon Creek State Park, and Hillman State Park are also located a few miles away. The recreational opportunities are endless! The property was formerly a farm, but the house burned down and was removed. There are no structures on the property. It’s primarily comprised of hardwood timber which hasn’t been select cut since 2004. Two old farm fields are long overgrown located on the southwest corner of the property – totaling approximately 5 acres. There are a couple of dirt track/logging road entrances into the property, but the trails have not been maintained. One is off Rockyside Drive, and the other is off Ferndale Road. The topography of this tract is excellent. It has two different high-point ridgetops, a saddle, and a few finger ridges. In most places, it is very gently rolling. There are a couple of hollows and thickets. The habitat on this tract promotes excellent hunting, and there is a lot of deer sign. There are significant trails throughout the property, turkey scratchings, and fresh deer signs in the thickets. It would hunt well and is an appealing whitetail property. With access to electricity and water, it would make an incredible building site for a country home or cabin. There is marketable timber on the property for investors in certain locations. There’s a lot of cherry, ash, locust, but also white oak, red oak, maple, and some poplar. The mineral rights are owned by the seller but are not included. They are willing to consider selling them, and they are subject to separate negotiation.
