Located in Pike County, Indiana, this ±26.67-acre tract offers an excellent opportunity for hunting or recreational use, featuring established access and diverse wildlife habitat. Situated at the dead end of Meridian Road, south of State Road 64, the property provides a secluded setting with minimal through traffic. Access is via Meridian Road, which is currently unmaintained. The entrance leads to a well-built internal trail system constructed with railroad ballast, offering durable and reliable access throughout much of the property—reminiscent of trails found in a state park. The land includes a mix of habitat types that support abundant wildlife, including whitetail deer, wild turkey, and waterfowl. Wood ducks have been observed utilizing shallow water areas, highlighting the presence of suitable wetland habitat. The property also features frontage along the South Fork Patoka River. Its location is just minutes from major public land areas such as Patoka National Wildlife Refuge, Sugar Ridge Fish and Wildlife Area, and Pike State Forest, enhancing wildlife movement and habitat connectivity while providing additional public hunting opportunities. Timber management has been conducted in phases. Approximately 19 acres were selectively harvested around 20 years ago, allowing for natural regeneration and a younger overstory. More recently, about 18.5 acres underwent selective timbering within the past year, targeting species such as pin oak, sycamore, and poplar. These practices have created early successional growth and increased habitat diversity, benefiting wildlife cover, forage, and movement. Trail camera images from the seller offer insight into the deer population on the property. The property lies within a designated wetland area, making the construction of structures with utilities unlikely. Buyers should conduct their own due diligence regarding potential improvements. The highest and best use of this tract is recreational and hunting. The seller may consider improving Meridian Road access, such as adding gravel, depending on offer terms. This property offers a rare combination of seclusion, habitat diversity, water features, and proximity to public land—at a competitive price.
