Description

Property Description

If you're looking for acreage where you can build, hunt, invest in timber, and make the property your own, this 64.35-acre tract offers plenty of possibilities. Approximately 60 acres were planted in pines in 2024, providing future timber value while still being young enough that areas could be cleared relatively easily for a homesite, food plots, shooting lanes, roads, or larger open spaces. This tract already has an existing driveway from Balerma Church Road and power on the property. Rolling to steep terrain and two hardwood drains add character, habitat diversity, and natural travel corridors for wildlife while creating different options for homesites and recreational improvements. Hancock County is a Quality Deer Management county, and the combination of young pine cover, hardwood drains, varied terrain, and surrounding large acreage tracts provides good hunting opportunities now and as the property matures. The property has been surveyed, and the boundaries are marked with pink ribbon. With existing access and power already in place, this tract offers a strong combination of homesite potential, recreation, hunting, and long-term timber value. The adjoining 64.31-acre Tract 1 is also available, providing the opportunity to own approximately 128.66 contiguous acres. Approximately 20 minutes to Sandersville, 22 minutes to Sparta, and 30 minutes to Milledgeville.
