This 153 acre tract sits east of Waverly in Pike County, in the hill country of southern Ohio. It is wooded from one line to the other, with hardwood ridges and hollows and a creek running through the land. Trails are already cut through the timber, so you can get around the whole piece without clearing a path. Big timber, water and cover hold deer and turkey, which makes this a serious hunting property. It also works as a homestead or cabin site: there is gravel road frontage on Moats Hollow Road and electric at the road, so power is close by. There are no structures on the land, which leaves the building site up to you. All of the seller's interest in the mineral rights transfers to the buyer. The property does not touch public land, but public ground is close. Pike State Forest is about 22 miles away, with roughly 12,000 acres open to public hunting and fishing in season, and Scioto Trail State Forest is about 21 miles north. Waverly, the county seat, is about 10 miles for groceries, fuel and medical care. Piketon is about 9 miles, where State Route 32 meets US 23. Chillicothe is about 27 miles north, and downtown Columbus is about 70 miles. Acreage like this rarely comes up in one piece. Showings by appointment only.
