Mccurtain, OK (Haskell County)

LOCATION: Central Eastern Oklahoma in Haskell County. About ½ mile to the village of McCurtain which has grade through high-school, grocery market and several churches. 50,000 acre Kerr Lake is about 9 miles. The San Boise Mtns are about 3 miles South. This property fronts for about 660 feet along a state highway. ADDRESS: 4023 E. Hwy 31, McCurtain, Ok 74944. LAND: The North part of this property that fronts the highway slopes gently to the South ending in a valley. The land is sandy-loam by nature and well suited to fruit, berries, and garden crops of all kinds or pasture for a horse or cow. The pasture section has not been mowed in 2 or 3 years and is covered with small brush which can easily be mowed with a tractor and brush-hog. Fencing is very poor or non-existing, but there is still some of the old fencing in place. It would be best to install all new fencing if the new owner desires to have pasture for farm animals. On the back side of the land the property line is in the middle of an old coal strip mine which has ever-lasting water for fishing or swimming if desired. HOME: The home is frame constructed with wood floors supported by piers and beams with a solid masonry concrete block foundation.

COMMENTS: Bargain price on this attractive little country place well located with state highway frontage and just ½ mile to country town with store, churches and schools. The exterior of the home needs new paint. The inside needs cosmetic work to be in top condition with some painted needed and replacing the old carpet would be nice. However, the home is perfectly livable as-is and is currently occupied by the owner’s father. Pretty land will provide pasture for a few farm animals or would be great for a garden or fruit trees. New fencing will be required and the pasture has not been mowed in 2 or 3 years so this will need to be done. In short, this place has great potential with some minor do-it-yourself type cosmetic work. Scenic area with lots of mountains, streams and lakes. Hunting for deer, turkey, squirrel, rabbit, quail and other game. Ideal retirement home.
