450 acres +/- on the Cahaba River

Description

450 acres +/- of land for sale along the Cahaba River in Dallas County, Alabama. This property has a lot to like for someone looking to make a land investment. The location is ideal for anyone looking for a recreational property in the Black Belt, because it is easily accessible from almost all directions. The land fronts on US Highway 80, and is accessed from the north side along Dallas County Road 29. There are 4 entrances into the property, giving you great options for your approach during hunting season. The food plots are laid out well, and the deer hunting here is great. This is one of the most desirable areas of the state for deer and turkey hunting. The truly unique feature of this property is that it has almost 4000' of frontage on the Cahaba River. The Cahaba River is the most bio-diverse river in the lower 48 states. The river offers fantastic opportunities for year round recreation- fishing, paddling, and bird watching just to name a few. Land along the Cahaba is often sought after for conservation easement purposes. 

The timber on this tract is a perfect mix of varying ages of pine plantations, hardwood in the streams and beside the river and even a few cypress in the drains. There are opportunities to continue to manage the timber for income, and also for wildlife habitat. There are at least 6 good sized food plots for hunters. A great internal road and trail system leads throughout the property. There are some gravel deposits that allow for material to maintain the roads through the tract. On the day we took pictures, we saw deer everywhere. Buck sign was all over the property. Power is available along County Road 29, and that road was recently paved again. The bridge on CR 29 is no longer in service, so traffic is low along that road. There are home sites if you would like to build a cabin or home on the land. The shape, location, and road frontage make this property a good candidate to divide into several smaller hunting properties if you and some friends or family would like to purchase land near each other. An additional 125 acres +/- with more river frontage could also potentially be purchased if you needed more land.
