Tract 1 Description:
Tract 1 lies on the west side and directly adjoins Brinton Timber—a county-owned sanctuary where no hunting is allowed. It’s not often you can buy land that borders a protected refuge like this, offering a major advantage for hunters and deer management-minded buyers.
There are 98 tillable acres, 25 in the Conservation Reserve Program, and about 115 acres in timber. A select harvest recently removed only the oldest and largest trees, preserving future value and improving wildlife cover. I noticed that the terrain here is flatter than most mixed-use properties, making it easier to farm while still offering strong habitat potential.
The northeast 40 is dynamic, and has open groves that make excellent staging and transition areas, one of the foodplot areas, and two fishable ponds. To the far west in the back, there is a secluded cove adjoining the fence line against the vast county park timber. This spot would be an incredible green plot to set up as the deer move toward the middle of the farm, where the big fields are. Lastly, the north field is flanked by large blocks of timber, and is of the size and shape that makes dream late-season cold weather setups. Can you imagine the deer piling out of Brinton, toward your blind, as the snow is falling?!
Completing the west farm offering is a new open-faced barn for storing equipment, and a large insulated machine shed that could be a great place to set up as a weekend getaway if you choose not to build in one of the many great building site areas.
