Tract 3 -Tucked away at the end of a quiet hollow in northwest Orange County, this unique historic homestead offers a rare opportunity to own a secluded retreat adjoining thousands of acres of the Hoosier National Forest. Properties with this level of privacy, natural beauty, and direct public land access are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Accessed from N County Road 1150 W, the property is surrounded by some of southern Indiana's most scenic terrain, featuring rugged ridges, mature hardwood timber, dramatic rock formations, seasonal waterfalls, and picturesque creek drainages. Despite its remote feel, the property offers county road frontage and access to electric service. A year-round creek, which typically flows for approximately 10 months of the year, traverses the property and provides both beauty and functionality. An existing low-water crossing leads to the secluded homesite beyond, where the sounds of flowing water and the shade of mature timber create a peaceful, off-grid atmosphere. Several historic structures from the original homestead remain on-site. While no longer considered functional improvements, they offer a glimpse into the property's past and may provide a valuable source of reclaimed old-growth lumber for future projects. Natural springs and hand-dug wells further reflect the property's rich homestead history. The property's greatest asset is its direct adjacency to thousands of acres of Hoosier National Forest, providing immediate access to exceptional hunting, hiking, camping, wildlife viewing, horseback riding, foraging, and countless other outdoor recreational opportunities. Southern Indiana is renowned for its healthy populations of whitetail deer, wild turkey, and diverse wildlife species. Whether you're looking for a secluded hunting retreat, recreational getaway, future cabin site, or a unique piece of Indiana history, this property offers outstanding potential in a truly remarkable setting. The combination of creek frontage, historic character, natural water sources, and direct national forest access creates a property that is difficult to replicate. Seller has indicated the property may also be offered as separate tracts, providing additional flexibility for buyers seeking smaller acreage options.
