Located just west of the town of Velpen in Southern Indiana sits this beautiful and diverse recreational property with great building site potential. This property consists of well-established CRP in the Native Prairie Grass program and features a diverse mix of wildlife beneficial plants including Little Bluestem, Switchgrass, Indian grass, and an assortment of native flowering plants, wild ryes, and prairie clovers.  These acres serve a dual purpose by offering critical winter forage and spring brooding/fawning habitat for the local deer, turkey, and quail populations while providing a beautiful backdrop to the building site. The current CRP contract pays the owner $4,212/year for the remaining 5 years, with an extension at the end of the contract likely.  In the SW corner of the CRP acreage sits a 4-acre field that could be removed from the CRP contract; offering a picturesque location for a country home overlooking the entire property. City water and underground electric service are along the adjacent private road, making this an ideal location for your new country home.

The balance of the property also consists of diverse timber ranging from mature hardwoods to early successional forests. Several field openings within the timber have been maintained and offer a great opportunity for organic farming, additional CRP income, or wildlife food plots. Adding to this diverse property, a small stocked pond with bass, crappie and bluegill sits in the NE corner of the property. All key features of this property are linked together by a manicured trail system throughout, offering great walking or riding trails over 2.5 miles in total. All this is complemented by virtually landlocked, walk-in only access to thousands of acres of public land on the neighboring Patoka National Wildlife Refuge and Pike State Forest. If you and your family have been looking for a diverse recreational property that can be built on, then look no further. This is truly a one of a kind property that must be seen to be appreciated.
