0 State Route 278, Mc Arthur, OH 45651

Thirty four acres in Vinton County, Ohio, offered in one piece to one buyer, with open ground in front and standing timber behind it. The frontage is cleared and working. Tillable crop ground, pasture and hay ground run along the road, so the land can earn from the first season if that is what the buyer wants from it. The building site is already up on that open ground, which means nothing to clear and nothing to burn before a foundation goes in. Electric runs the frontage and rural water is at the road, so there is no well to drill and no line to run, and those two items are most of what makes building in this county expensive before any dirt moves. Frontage is on State Route 278, a numbered state maintained route, so it is paved and it is plowed. Behind the fields the ground turns to woods and standing timber, and that timber is the other half of the purchase. This is hunting country by the state's own count: hunters checked one thousand one hundred and sixty two deer in Vinton County in the 2025-26 season, six hundred and seventy one of them antlered. Zaleski State Forest lies about four miles off, twenty eight thousand acres of public ground open to hunting. Lake Hope State Park sits inside that forest about six miles out, twenty nine hundred acres around a hundred and twenty acre lake with a lodge, cottages, a campground, swimming and trails. The Moonville Rail-Trail runs ten miles through this county and the next, and the Moonville Tunnel is about six miles from the frontage. Hocking Hills, the most visited state park in Ohio, is about fifteen miles north. McArthur, the county seat, is about five miles west where U.S. Route 50 crosses State Route 93. Athens and Ohio University are about sixteen miles east and Columbus is about sixty miles northwest. Vinton County is the least populous county in Ohio, twelve thousand eight hundred people at the last census, with better than seventy percent of the ground under them in woodland.
