Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This for-sale parcel is a 24+ acre tract of recreational land in residential zoning. Public remarks describe established trails throughout the property and food plots scattered across the acreage. Driveway access provides a direct route onto the land, with the terrain supporting activities such as four-wheeling, dirt biking, horses, hiking, and hunting.
The property borders a quarter-mile stretch of the New Mount Olive Reservoir. Remarks note that the reservoir dam experienced a structural failure in 2024, and that when there is rain the reservoir fills, while under drier conditions the area functions as a wetland/creek corridor with nearly always flowing water.
