415 co rd 45 , Guin, AL 35563(Marion County)

This 53+/- acre family farm is what is left of a 600-acre cattle farm that was the original catfish producing farm of Northwest Alabama. For generations people came here from all over NW-AL. and NE-MS. to buy catfish to stock their lakes and ponds. Now the old hay barn and feed lot that stood on top of the hill has been turned into a quaint cabin for weekends of hunting, fishing, and just getting away from it all. From the front porch of the cabin, you can sit and look out over approximately 20 acres of beautiful terraced hayfields and across the two main lakes. The main lakes around 7 acres are both stocked the smaller with Bass and Brim, the larger with Catfish. The seller said there are turkey and deer who come out of the 25 or so acres of timber in the evenings to feed in the pastures and drink from the ponds. The cabin has 3 separate private living areas with a great common area and multiple camper hookups with separate utilities and septic making it a great hunting of fishing camp for you and your friends and family. The timber is a good mix of mature large merchantable hardwoods with a nice pine thicket off the back. The hardwoods are filled with deer sign while the pine looks to be a favorite roosting area for a large number of turkeys. The property is fenced, and the hayfields are well maintained. The farmer who cuts the hay would be willing to continue for a fee or in exchange for the hay. This tract sits at the intersection of Hwy 278 and Co.Rd. 45 which puts it just minutes from downtown Guin and State Hwy 22. Guin is just over an hour from Birmingham, Huntsville, and Tuscaloosa, it is even closer to Columbus and Tupelo Mississippi. The property has a ton of potential for a beautiful home site with great views or as an income producing farm or as an exceptional private hunting retreat. It is a must see.
