235 Mount Hebron Road

Description

Located in Randolph County, Georgia, this approximately 57-acre property combines a residence, planted pine timber, hunting and recreational opportunities, and multiple outbuildings. The tract is primarily planted in pines of several age classes, providing established timber acreage along with cover for wildlife and options for continued land management. The property includes an approximately 1,637 square foot home originally constructed in the 1950s and remodeled in 2013. The floor plan offers flexibility with three or four bedrooms depending on how the new owner chooses to utilize the available rooms. The home also includes one full bathroom and one half bathroom. A metal roof was installed in 2013, and the exterior is finished with Hardie plank siding. A fenced backyard provides a defined outdoor area adjacent to the residence. Two additional structures provide useful space for vehicles, equipment, tools, and recreational gear. The property includes a 20x30 shop with approximately 600 square feet of space and a separate 20x24 garage with approximately 480 square feet. These improvements can support the equipment and storage needs associated with maintaining a rural acreage property. The land itself is primarily planted pine timber. The pines on the front portion of the property were planted in 2016. Additional pine stands on the back side of the powerline were planted in 2017 and 2018. These established stands have had several years of growth and are expected to approach a potential first thinning window within approximately the next three to five years based on current management expectations. Actual thinning timing, timber volumes, and potential timber value will depend on tree growth, stocking, timber markets, site conditions, and other forestry considerations. Buyers interested in the timber component should consult a qualified forester to evaluate the stands and determine an appropriate management schedule. Before thinning, the planted pine acreage may also offer potential for pine straw production. Depending on tree species, spacing, understory conditions, needle quality, accessibility, and local market demand, portions of the pine stands may be suitable for pine straw raking. This gives a future owner another management option to consider as the timber continues to mature. Any anticipated pine straw production or revenue should be independently evaluated by a forestry or pine straw professional. A powerline corridor crossing the property creates an open area within the predominantly wooded acreage. For a recreational landowner, this opening could potentially be managed for food plots, wildlife forage, shooting lanes, or other recreational purposes where appropriate. The combination of open ground and planted pine cover creates habitat diversity and multiple transition areas throughout the tract. Deer are regularly observed on the property, according to the owner, providing an established recreational component to the acreage. Planted pine properties are also commonly marketed for hunting and recreational use in Randolph County, with other area tracts featuring combinations of pine timber, open areas, food plots, and deer habitat. The pine stands provide cover, while the powerline corridor provides an open area that could be incorporated into a wildlife management plan. The property's combination of a residence and recreational acreage allows it to serve several potential uses. A buyer could utilize the home as a full-time residence, a recreational property, or a base for hunting and land management activities. The shop and garage provide additional storage for tractors, ATVs, mowers, hunting equipment, tools, and other equipment associated with maintaining acreage. The timber component provides another dimension to the property. Rather than starting with recently cut acreage or establishing a new pine plantation, the property already contains stands planted in 2016, 2017, and 2018. A future owner can continu
