| Description: |
This secluded 81 acre pine plantation is located less than 7 miles from Andalusia, Alabama, the county seat of Covington County. It is about 25 miles north of the Florida pan handle and about a 1 hour drive from Fort Walton Beach, Florida. The property was planted around 1996 with 56,000 loblolly pine seedlings. They will be ready for their first thinning in a couple more years. Large tracts of timberland completely surround this property which makes it quiet and isolated, but only a short drive to town! The property does not have public road frontage, but there is access on both ends. There are 3 one acre wildlife food plots which have been maintained. Deer and turkey are abundant. The topography gently slopes down to a creek which runs year-round a full quarter mile across the land from north to south. This creek could easily be dammed to create a large fish pond. There are ample locations to put a home site. Or buy it as investment property. Land prices in the area are climbing, and the pine trees will generate future income. The Andalusia area is growing steadily. Many people come here to retire. The pace of living is slow, and the cost of living is low. We currently pay about $100 per year property taxes on this 81 acres! Land just over the Florida state line near Crestview is selling for $20,000 per acre and up. That makes this tract look like a steal at $3650 per acre. Call us at 334-222-8087 if you are interested.
