Whether you're planning to build, create a weekend retreat, or simply enjoy a place to unplug, this thoughtfully improved 40-acre property just south of the Brown/Jackson County line offers a rare opportunity to start with much of the infrastructure already in place. Tucked into the hills near Freetown and backed up to thousands of acres of Hoosier National Forest, the property has been carefully prepared to balance access, usability, and enjoyment of the land's natural setting. Improvements include an established driveway along with water, electric, and internet service extended to the top of the hill. Two ridgetop areas have been cleared to create potential building sites, offering options for future plans while taking advantage of the surrounding landscape. Designed for recreation, exploration, and immediate enjoyment, the property includes an established trail system with trails leading directly into H.N.F. (with two fishing ponds located just inside). There are culverts to control drainage for easier access throughout the acreage, a wildlife pond, fencing and a gated entry, plus a 40-foot shipping container for storage needs. Adding to the property's usability, a fully functional camper-complete with title and owner's manual-is included with the sale, creating an opportunity to begin enjoying the property right away while planning future improvements. A selective timber harvest completed in January 2022 opened portions of the property while maintaining its wooded character. There is an approved soil analysis for future septic installation. Small tools included with the sale: Champion generator, Stihl chainsaw, Stihl trimmer, and Husqvarna push mower. Whether your vision is a future homesite, recreational escape, hunting property, or a place to enjoy now and continue shaping over time, this 40-acre Jackson County property offers a substantial head start with meaningful improvements already in place. The driveway is steep and requires 4-wheel drive to ascend.
