Description
This hunting property encompasses a peninsula surrounded by over a mile of stream frontage on Dunkard Creek. It borders Pennsylvania to the north and is adjacent to Mason Dixon Historical Park. Only 22 minutes outside of Morgantown, it offers the seclusion of a country setting but also an easy commute into town. The privacy of this property is unparalleled with big timber to the north and Dunkard Creek to the west, south, and southeast. Totaling over 50 acres, there are tillable fields on the hilltop with scenic views over the valley, and also along Dunkard Creek with rich, silty soils. Whether you are looking for a waterfront property or a scenic hilltop view, there are multiple locations that would make exceptional home sites. Electric and city water are available on Route 7 across Dunkard Creek if you prefer public utilities over private. The property has been farmed for hay in recent years and there are multiple former food plots for the wildlife. The hunting potential of this property is exceptional with miles worth of field edge, endless food plot potential for holding high deer densities, year-round water, and hillside timber sanctuary. Protected by Dunkard Creek on multiple sides, farm country located to the west, Mason-Dixon Park (sanctuary) to the east, and big timber to the north, all the components are present for quality deer management and trophy whitetail hunting. Deer, turkeys and small game numbers are strong, along with occasional bears. If you’re a fisherman, Dunkard Creek has been stocked with muskie fingerlings for the past 50 years by the West Virginia DNR. There’s also angling opportunity for bass, suckers, carp, drum, and catfish. If kayaking, canoeing, or floats are your thing, you can float for over a mile from one side of the property to the other or continue down Dunkard to one of the launch locations at Mason-Dixon Park just a short distance down the road. Access to the property is located off of Ripley’s Run Road to the northeast, which can be accessed from both Pennsylvania and West Virginia. There is a small stream crossing over Ripley’s Run to get into the property and an old concrete bridge that runs over the bridge (no longer used but could be restored for use). Access throughout the property is excellent via farm roads and oil and gas roads. There are a handful of shallow oil and gas wells located throughout the property. It may be possible to purchase natural gas from the operator to supply buildings or a home, but there is no knowledge of a farm tap agreement. There is currently timber value on the property, but also significant potential for future harvests if managed well due to a high density of younger to mid-aged black walnut stands. Some of the fields adjacent to Dunkard Creek are located within a 100-year flood plain, which can be viewed on the FEMA 100-year flood plain map. The sellers are offering approximately 160 acres of a 260-acre parcel. The survey and subdivision will be completed and paid for by the sellers prior to the sale and offers should be made on a price per surveyed acre basis. The property was formerly owned by CONSOL Energy and CNX Land LLC; the sellers are conveying a limited warranty deed excluding mineral rights and a surface reservation to access minerals.
