115 Acres in Howard County, AR

Land Description

Welcome TO The Howard 115, A Versatile Land Tract IN Southwest Arkansas. This 115 acre property is near the Athens Community in Howard County and is the definition of multi-use, as it offers many opportunities in its current state, as well as what it can be transformed into. The hunting potential, especially for whitetail deer, is exceptional here, being flanked by large acreage owned by Weyerhaeuser Timber Company with varying age structures of pine timber to create abundant bedding and feeding areas for the local wildlife. The subject property has a varying age structure of its own but, in contrast, has some impressive stands of mature mast- producing hardwoods to support the local herd/flock. Brushy Creek runs across the northwest corner of the property, providing year-round enjoyment, and there are several springs scattered about that could be utilized in constructing a pond. The owner put in fire lanes, and the property is scheduled to have a prescribed burn along with some shooting lanes that run north to south for extended shooting opportunities. Another option for this property is a homesite. It would be ideal for the homeowner that craves peace and quiet to escape to the Howard 115, where you can build the home of your dreams to enjoy for years to come with very little outside interference. Electricity is located along the north boundary to service any utility needs. An additional use, which is easily overlooked, is clearing the timber from the land and converting it into improved pasture or a large-scale livestock confinement operation as represented on the neighboring property. Finally, this place has investment potential, as there is some marketable timber for future harvest. A highlight of this hidden gem is its proximity to the Ouachita National Forest, the Little Missouri River, Lake Greeson, the Cossatot River, and Dierks Lake. Within 20 minutes from the property, you can be at any of these favorite spots. If your dream is to have outdoor recreation at your fingertips, then give the Howard 115 a look.
