Description

Located in the rural countryside of Lenawee County, this 80.09-acre property offers a unique blend of agricultural and recreational opportunities. Situated along Parker Highway in Addison Township, it lies in a highly sought-after area where properties of this size and caliber rarely come to market. The land features a balance of open, previously tillable ground and wooded cover, making it suitable for farming, hobby agriculture, or outdoor recreation. The property includes a 2,144-square-foot home with walkout basement built in 1974 with two bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, a partially finished basement, and an attached garage. The home is served by a private well and septic system. Nearby, you'll find a 35x22 pole barn with electricity and a cement floor—ideal for use as a workshop or for storing equipment and recreational vehicles. The home is also nicely positioned near a stocked fishing pond equipped with a windmill aeration system, adding both ambiance and enjoyment.

Supplements: The acreage is diverse, with open cropland currently enrolled in the USDA CRP program, generating approximately $3,700 annually. This ground has the potential to support a variety of crops or be converted into pasture once the program has ended. The wooded areas provide excellent wildlife habitat, supporting opportunities for hunting, nature observation, and habitat management. This parcel is located in a premier deer hunting area known for its strong deer population and trophy bucks. Notably, the property has not been hunted in the past three years. Its layout offers both seclusion and accessibility, with privacy from the road and easy access to key areas. Topography across the property is generally level to gently rolling. The open fields make it easy to operate equipment, while the wooded portions provide natural cover and seclusion. Multiple locations on the property could serve as potential building sites, subject to local zoning regulations and government program requirements. Conveniently located, the property is approximately 5 miles from Addison, 7 miles from Manitou Beach, 17 miles from Adrian, and about 35 miles from Jackson. It is also within 50 miles of Angola, Indiana, and the Ohio cities of Monroe, Sylvania, Defiance, and Perrysburg, providing access to schools, healthcare, and daily necessities while maintaining a peaceful rural setting. Whether your goal is to own and live on an exceptional hunting farm, establish a small farmstead, or manage the property for recreational purposes, this tract offers the space, versatility, and features to support a wide range of uses.
