County Road 171, Axson, GA 31624 - Atkinson County

The Courson Longleaf Tract in east Atkinson County GA is a great 63 acre timber and hunting property with beautiful homesites, plus frontage on Little Red Bluff Creek. In the same family for generations, the property boasts aesthetic gently rolling topography and consists of productive soils and is situated in a nice rural area.

The property has road frontage on both sides of Dr. Morris Ln (graded County Road 171). Just 0.7 miles from the property is paved Boone Rd, which takes you to US 82 and the nearby cities of Axson and Pearson. There is power along Dr. Morris Ln. Best of all, there is very little traffic on Dr. Morris Ln, as the road ends just east of the property.

The 49.5 net acres of Longleaf planted in 2019 is a productive well stocked stand and has good future income potential via pine straw and timber. The Longleaf stand was prescribed burned a couple of years ago, and the trees and the wildlife groundcover look great. The Little Red Bluff Creek and the associated creek bottom on the north end provide excellent wetland wildlife habitat. The creek bottom consists of mature hardwood and some pine.

There is a regularly maintained perimeter firebreak around the longleaf, and there are a couple of roads/trails through the longleaf. It would be very easy to create a nice trail system, and at this stage of young longleaf, it would be easy to clear areas for food plots, and homesites. If agriculture interests you, the productive soils are ideal for clearing for pasture, row crops, or orchards.

Hurricane Helene largely spared this property, as the young Longleaf faired very well through the storm. The mature timber in the creek bottom experienced varying degrees of storm damage, ranging from pockets of severe damage to pockets of light damage.
