Lighter Knot Farm, a 230 acre turnkey recreational and timber investment tract in Jenkins County, offers an exceptional opportunity for hunting, weekend retreats, or a private homeplace. The property boasts merchantable pine and hardwood timber, including Loblolly pine plantation, with an estimated timber value around $400,000. The hunting opportunities this property offers are outstanding, as the area is well known for exceptional deer and turkey hunting, as well as occasional wild hogs. Multiple food plots with stands already in place are strategically positioned throughout the property, and the well-established internal road system ensures convenient access to the food plots and across the entire property. With Little Buckhead Creek running along the rear property line, the hardwood cre ek bottoms and planted pines enhance the wildlife habitat, providing natural forage and bedding areas. The main residence features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, complemented by a large screened porch with a fireplace. The backyard is ideal for entertaining, featuring a fire pit, covered grilling patio with island, sink, and TV cabinet-perfect for gathering after a successful day of hunting and watching college football. An additional covered shelter sits behind the house and includes a storage room, a deer cleaning station, and a commercial stainless-steel sink with a worktable. A bunkhouse sits approximately 150 yards behind the house, providing additional living space for guests. It includes a large room with multiple bunk beds and a bathroom on one side, as well as a large storage area/garage with two bay doors. In addition, three sides of the building feature covered shelters for storing equipment, boats, ATVs, and more. With ample road frontage on both Messex Road and Hwy 23 and gated entrances from each, Lighter Knot Farm is easily accessible for hunting, land management, and future timber harvesting. Just 8 miles from Millen, GA, 1 hour from Augusta, 1.5 hours from Savannah, and 3 hours from Atlanta.
