87 acres of mostly high sandy land covered in 5 year-old loblolly pine plantation with pockets of larger bay and gum trees. Tract has over 500 feet of road frontage along Sara Peterson Road with public water available. It's an ideal place to put up a subdivide for several homes or for a rural timberland/hunting retreat with growing timber and lots of wildlife options around. Solid tract of timberland located in the rural part of southern Bladen County within the Rosindale/Council Community and is covered from one end to the other with healthy stands of both pine and hardwood species. With the exception of a few small heads of hardwood in select areas of the site, the majority of the tract is fully stocked in five-year-old loblolly pine from a containerized planting session during the winter of 2021. Even though the pine is only 5 years old, the pine stand is growing strong in the fertile Bladen County soils. This 87 acres falls within the timberland-rich area of eastern North Carolina that is not only full of healthy timber, but this tract is also located in a wildlife-rich area. This area is well known for supporting high populations of whitetail deer, bobwhite quail, other small game, and in recent years, wild turkey. Bladen and Columbus Counties are two of the fastest growing populations of wild turkey in the state. Black bears are also well known to roam these woods and clipping that black bear tag on this tract is very possible. The tract has a variety of habitat types from low, wetland areas covered in dense vegetation at the rear adjacent to Richland Branch to the high sandy ridges towards Sara Peterson Road and there is a broad transition zone in between. This tract can provide buyers with a wide variety of opportunities from just a pure timberland investment with hunting in its current state to several possible configurations for subdividing into several large estate-sized lots for residential, homesteading, or equine-based developments. The tract touches the road in two places with 221 feet of frontage on the lower end and 299 feet of frontage on the northern end of Sara Peterson Road. Tract allows a new buyer plenty of room at either location along the roadway to build a home or create a homestead tucked into the wood line with plenty of room for horses, goats, chickens, and other farm life AND still leaving plenty of room in the rear for hunting large and small game species throughout the year. The woodlands are ideal for hunting as this wooded tract connects to a very large forested corridor on nearly all sides of the tract that connect with tributaries to Richland Branch, Reedy Branch, Boggy Branch, and the massive Slap Swamp region of Columbus and Bladen Counties that all connect to the Lake Waccamaw and the Waccamaw River Swamp Complex. The young pine and hardwood trees can be fully managed to provide an income opportunity through timber production in the future. Truly awesome hunting tract at an economical price for almost anyone with various opportunities for a wide variety of buyers. Tract is only seven miles from Lake Waccamaw and US 74, 13 miles to Whiteville, 33 miles to Lumberton, 39 miles to Wilmington, 60 miles from Fayetteville, and only 50 miles from North Myrtle Beach. Come take a look at this tract today before it gets gobbled up! Another beautiful Southeastern North Carolina jewel that will sell about as fast as it came onto the market. One must come and see today before the opportunity slips away!
