2 Tbd Henderson Ml Rd Bates, AR 72958

Located at the base of Poteau Mountain in Southwestern Arkansas, this 29.8-acre property offers a remote and secluded wilderness setting. The east property line adjoins the 1.8 million-acre Ouachita National Forest, providing direct access to ATV and hiking trails, as well as hunting opportunities for whitetail deer, eastern wild turkey, wild hogs, black bear, and other small game species. The land is accessible via roughly 1800 feet of frontage along Henderson Mill Road on the north property line and 500 feet of frontage along Strip Pit Road on the west property line. The property is a short drive from Wister Lake State Park, Cedar Lake, Broken Bow Lake, and Sardis Lake. Fort Smith, Arkansas, is a 1-hour drive, and Tulsa, Oklahoma, is about 2.5 hours away. The land is covered with a stand of timber native to Southwestern Arkansas, featuring a diverse variety of mast-producing oak trees and a scattering of young native shortleaf pine. The terrain is flat to gently sloping, with several locations suitable for constructing a weekend recreational cabin or a full-time off-grid residence. A seasonal stream flows through the property, and there are several locations where a pond could be constructed for a year-round water source. The property has no deed restrictions and offers scenic mountain views.
