Located in the heart of Marion County, this exceptional 146-acre farm offers a rare blend of premier wildlife habitat, conservation integrity, and build-site potential with paved access along Highway S45. Enrolled in the Emergency Watershed Protection Program (EWP), the property has been thoughtfully restored and managed to enhance natural habitat and long-term land stewardship. The easement allows for up to 7.1 acres of designated food plots, creating the ideal balance between conservation and strategic wildlife management. A major highlight of the farm is White Breast Creek, which winds through the property, providing a year-round water source and creating natural travel corridors for wildlife. In addition, established wetlands enhance the habitat diversity and offer excellent waterfowl hunting opportunities, attracting ducks and other migratory birds throughout the season. The diverse habitat structure — including timber, creek bottom, wetlands, cover, and food plot areas — creates outstanding bedding, travel corridors, and feeding opportunities that consistently attract and hold mature wildlife. A unique and valuable feature of this offering is the 2.5-acre parcel strategically excluded from the EWP program, allowing for a potential build site directly along Highway S45. With paved road frontage and easy access, this location provides an ideal setting for a country home, hunting cabin, or weekend retreat.
