Description

Rarely do properties of this size, diversity, and opportunity come to the market. Located in Taylor County, WI, this 611 +/- acre tract can be purchased in its entirety or it can be split into a 305.25 +/- acre parcel for $1,207,000 or the 305.75 +/- acre parcel with a price of $1,292,000. (See the maps for more detail.) These tracts offer an incredible blend of high grade timber at a location that is known for great hunting and outdoor opportunities— all within driving distance of several major metro areas. Just 2 hours 30 minutes from the Twin Cities, 2.5 hours to Green Bay, 3.5 hours from Milwaukee, and about 5 hours 30 minutes from Chicago, this property offers the perfect northwoods retreat without sacrificing accessibility. A well-maintained internal trail and road system provide access throughout the property with miles of primary and secondary trails already in place. The property is enrolled in the Managed Forest (MFL) program, meaning reduced property taxes and periodic income from sustainable timber harvests. Though it is now in MFL Open, it can be changed to the Closed Program with little effort, allowing you to control who uses your land. The logging that has been done on this property has been predominantly single tree harvest with a goal of maintaining and improving the growth of the timber, of which approximately 36% is Sugar Maple, 25% Red Oak, 10% White Ash and approximately 8% Basswood (making up the predominant hardwoods). White Pine, Aspen, Birch, Balsam, Black Ash, Spruce and Hemlock account for the remainder of the timber that is found on the property. Truly, the forest management of this property has created an opportunity for the next owner(s) to enjoy continued income from the ever increasing value that occurs from the natural growth occurring on the high quality soil found in this region. Take a hard look at the aerial photos (using Satellite imagery) to get a good picture of this quality hardwood forest sitting on sandy/stony ground that drains well. A high percentage of the acreage sits on the type of soil found where trees grow well because they have dry feet, where the moisture is held but does not stand at the surface longer than it should. You will appreciate the countless recreational opportunities this property provides. Rolling hills and diverse wetlands offer great whitetail, turkey, bear and grouse hunting, along with trail riding, hiking, snowmobiling, all on a grand scale. The property borders a large piece of National Forest lands, available to you for free. The size and layout of this property offers incredible seclusion and is a natural setting for wildlife and adventure. Whether you're an investor looking for a long-term hold, a hunting group seeking a premier piece of ground, or a family wanting a legacy property to enjoy for generations, this 611 +/- acres checks all the boxes. Rare. Diverse. Income-producing, and built for making memories in the great outdoors. Contact us today to schedule your private showing. (We are able to provide copies of the current MFL Plan and maps that support the true value of this land. Maybe you would like to use a 1031, this is a good one.) Good land holds its value and as the trees grow, so goes the value of your investment.
