Recreational Timberland with Homesite & Development Potential
Versatile ±68.49-acre property located on Storey Mill Road in Hephzibah. This property’s location, soil composition, topography, access, and healthy, diverse ecosystem set it apart. Ideal for the homesteader, developer, or investor seeking a well-rounded tract with both immediate usability and long-term upside.

The property is well-positioned for future development, while its current recreational and timberland use supports ongoing usability. Utilities: City water, gas, and electric is available.
Overall Feel: The tract offers strong depth with paved road frontage on Storey Mill Road and a layout that allows for both accessibility and privacy.
