Sitting on the Montgomery/Wilson County line, this 438-acre farm has been in the same family for decades. The decision to sell this farm has come with tremendous consideration and now the opportunity for buyers is here. A diverse makeup of habitat traverses along Salt Creek and its tributaries. Nine broken-up fields scattered throughout the farm are currently either in wheat or bean fields that have just been harvested and will be ready to plant again next spring. Along with providing a substantial food source for wildlife, this allows a return on investment opportunity. Access throughout the farm is excellent and can be improved with just a little additional clearing and mowing. The rock ledges track along the creek bed and create a diversity of cover and topography. A large number of quality trees are made up of marketable walnut as well as pecan. As you walk the farm, you feel as though you have stepped into a sanctuary at every turn. Open native meadows are lined with cedar and persimmon thickets on the hilltops. Then you step through to a manicured crop field surrounded by towering timber and edges just begging that crying buck to follow that corner to your shooting lane. Excellent access from the north and east provide entry and then the established road system inside will get you to every point of the farm including several creek crossings. With approximately 130 acres in tillable, 60 acres in native meadows, and the balance in large timber, Salt Creek bottom and thickets are the perfect makeup for whitetail paradise. Rural water and electricity are both available on County Road 6600 along the north. There is an abundance of sign scattered all over the farm from scrape lines and rubs along field edges to hoof beaten trails between the fields. If this farm doesn’t get your heart racing for a November rut hunt, may I suggest picking up a new hobby. Truly one of the best farms I’ve had the pleasure of not only stepping foot on but getting the opportunity to list for this family. The sellers have also partnered with the county Natural Resource Conservation Service office on a Timber Stand Improvement Program to increase the quality of the timber on the farm. The program will transfer with the ownership and those benefits will carry over to the new owners.
