About This Home

A rare opportunity to own this one of a kind unique timber investment and recreational property. This rectangular eighty acre tract nestled in north east Beauregard Parish is surrounded by larger land owner tracts enhancing privacy, seclusion, peacefulness and refuge. A 26 acre pine plantation of native longleaf pine consisting of mostly 28 year old trees was thinned 2 years ago and is now an improving natural turkey habitat. Longleaf plantation is currently worth approximately $14,000. There are multiple scatterings of saw-log size trees within the tract that add to timber value and natural aesthetic value. The Long Branch of Barnes Creek winds through the north to south middle of the rectangular tract and Little Barnes Creek winds through the south east corner forming natural wildlife corridors that attract and encourage deer, turkey, wood duck, rabbit, squirrel (and hog) within a landscape of varied habitats. A mayhaw thicket adjacent to the Long Branch Creek with an estimated 90+ fruit bearing trees and small intermittent slough is favored by game and other wildlife. A three acre stocked catfish pond and a one acre bass pond enhance water sources for wildlife/waterfowl. A planted millet field provided for doves, also lures turkey, resident Canada geese and an occasional quail.
