About this property

Rare opportunity to own 1,043± contiguous acres in Ross County, one of the largest tracts of land to hit the market in Southern Ohio. Stretching nearly 3.5 miles in length, this massive property offers an incredible combination of premier hunting, recreation, investment potential, and the opportunity to create a true legacy property. Approximately 30 acres are tillable, with the balance consisting of rolling wooded terrain, mature timber, secluded ridges and hollows, and some steeper areas that provide outstanding wildlife habitat. The property features three separate access points from Bogard Road, Turkey Ridge Road, and Kerr Hill Road, a tremendous advantage for serious hunters by allowing strategic access based on wind direction, deer movement, and hunting pressure. Located in an area known for producing world-class whitetails, the sheer size and diversity of this property provide endless opportunities for habitat management, food plots, trail systems, hunting, hiking, ATV riding, and other outdoor recreation. All seller-owned mineral rights transfer. Conveniently located within a short drive of Bainbridge and Chillicothe and near Pike State Forest, Paint Creek, and Rocky Fork Lake. An additional 388± acres directly across the road is also available, creating the potential to control over 1,400 acres in the immediate area. Properties of this size and caliber are increasingly difficult to find-an exceptional opportunity to own, improve, and create a legacy on one of Southern Ohio's largest contiguous land offerings.

    Buyer checklist

    Questions worth investigating for any farm or ranch purchase. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.

    1. Legal accessIs there deeded or recorded access to a public road, and are there easements across the land (or that the land relies on)?
    2. Water rights and wellsA well, pond, creek or irrigation system does not by itself establish a legal right to use the water. Ask for the water right, permit or registration documents and test the well.
    3. Leases and tenanciesAre there farm, grazing, hunting, CRP, oil and gas or wind leases? Some survive a sale or require notice before they end.
    4. Soil and usable landHow many acres can actually be cropped or grazed? Check the NRCS soil survey and get a current lab soil test for the use you plan.
    5. RestrictionsZoning, conservation easements, deed restrictions, HOA rules, floodplain and wetland rules can limit what you can do.
    6. Building conditionBarns, fences, wells and septic systems need inspection; a listed building may not suit a commercial or livestock use.
    7. UtilitiesPower, water, septic capacity, internet and road maintenance: who provides them and at what cost.
    8. What is included in the saleEquipment, growing crops, stored hay, livestock, irrigation equipment, permits and farm program contracts are often separate. Get it in writing.
