Ridgeland, SC 29936(Jasper County)

Hazzard Creek and its game-rich hardwood creek bottom runs over a half mile through the middle of the property, providing excellent turkey roosting, deer bedding cover, and an abundance of quality mast-producing hardwoods perfect for bow hunting. The landscape is rich with diverse habitats, including mature stands of mixed pine and hardwoods that are seldom seen anymore. Much of the upland pine forests are mature and could be thinned. The proper spacing of trees and canopy allows sunlight to penetrate the forest floor, promoting the growth of native warm-season grasses and forbs for bobwhite quail.

Old Chelsea West Plantation is conveniently located only 6 miles from John Paul ll and 14 miles from Cross School, HH Christiaan Academy, and Bluffton High, offering a rare opportunity to be close enough to turn the property into a full-time residence. This property is a blank canvas with no improvements, allowing the new owner the freedom to craft their dream home or hunting compound. The current zoning for Old Chelsea West is very liberal, as this property has been fully entitled to an existing development agreement with Jasper County. This would be a rare opportunity for a conservation-minded buyer to capitalize on potential tax incentives by placing an easement on this historic property. The donor can design easements to allow for all historical usages but provide protection from development.
