This tract offers you the beauty of the mountain in the fall when the leaves turn will make you feel like you are in Gatlinburg. There is a year-round spring-fed creek that meanders along the property surrounded by huge hardwoods. The occasional rock outcropping gives added character and more of the mountain feel. There are a couple of food plots with room for more that feed a well-established deer and turkey population. The seller of this property does not hunt so there has been no pressure on the wildlife for years.  The area has been known to produce record book bucks and in this part of the county, it is very common to see flocks of turkey on the move. The ridges are covered with heavy merchantable hardwood timber providing a good source of manageable income. Along with the big acorn-bearing hardwoods, the tops of the ridges are dotted with cedar groves and pine outcroppings that will make for good bedding and roosting areas.  Back down near the quiet country road, there is a small private stocked pond that I’ve been told holds some large bass and brim for the casual angler. The area overlooking the pond would make a spectacular place for a pair of home sites. The roadside of the pond is secluded by a large rock wall providing character and privacy. The opposite side provides a couple of nice home sites on small knolls looking at the pond from your front porch and a beautiful hardwood draw from your back deck. Not far behind the pond, through the valley, there is a good size beaver pond that has been known to hold wood ducks, geese, and mallards at times.

You would think you would have to drive a long way to find a property like this, but it is very conveniently located. From your driveway, you are less than 10 minutes to downtown Oneonta where you can find restaurants of all types, shopping from small-town boutiques to Walmart, Tractor Supply, big chain grocery stores, and local farmers markets. Oneonta has exceptional schools and municipal services. You are also just a few minutes from Hwy-75 which will put you in Birmingham in less than an hour or Huntsville, Gadsden, or Cullman in about the same time. From here you are also less than an hour to the lakes at Guntersville and Pell City or the Tennessee River in Decatur. No need to drive to Decatur to the water park, Blountsville and Spring Valley Beach are only about 20 minutes away. People come from miles around every Summer to swim and slide at one of Alabama’s premier splash parks. In the fall, drop off the Mountain to Springville and visit Homestead Hollow for a good ole time enjoying the country crafts and Bluegrass. It is a festival not to be missed.  

This property can be purchased as it sits or can be combined with a number of additional tracts for up to 600+/- acres of some of Blount County’s best land available.
