This +/- 92.849 acre tract in Jefferson County, Indiana offers a large block of hardwood timber with approximately 335 feet of road frontage on East Thornton Road, just west of North Jefferson Road. The property is entirely wooded and sits close to Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge and the city of Madison. A small clearing at the front creates a natural spot for an attractive entrance. A cable is across the entrance of the property. Old logging trails run through the woods. The property was managed by professional foresters for over a decade to ensure natural forest regeneration. A selective timber harvest opened the canopy and encouraged new growth, producing browse and bedding cover for deer, while a good number of oaks remain standing. Those oaks provide acorns for deer and turkey today and represent future harvestable timber for the next owner. From the southeast corner to the northwest corner, the property stretches more than 1,200 yards, leaving room to spread out stand locations, set up for different wind directions, and manage hunting pressure. Tillable ag ground in the surrounding area provides nearby food sources that pull deer and turkey through the neighborhood. Beyond hunting, the property lends itself to camping, hiking, and mountain biking. There are no restrictions, and it is buildable, opening the door to a cabin tucked back in the timber or a secluded home site deep in the woods with no neighbors in view. With approximately 335 feet of road frontage, the acreage also offers potential to be divided into smaller tracts. Whether the goal is a hunting property, a weekend retreat, a long-term timber investment, or a private building site, this +/- 92.849 acre Jefferson County, Indiana tract delivers acreage, mature oaks, trail access, and a strong location.

This +/- 73-acre wooded property between Madison and Versailles in Jefferson County, Indiana, combines a brand-new Amish-built log cabin with quality whitetail habitat and managed timber. A stone entry drive leads to the cabin and a parking area. The solid log cabin runs fully off-grid on a generator with an inverter/charger battery backup system. A mini-split provides heating and air conditioning, and a wood-burning stove adds a second heat source. Running water, a full shower, a composting toilet, and a cistern are in place. The upstairs sleeping area handles several people, built-in storage runs throughout, and the cabin is ready for immediate use. The entire property is wooded. The cabin side is mostly flat with oak-heavy hardwoods and over 700 yards of trails for scouting, shed hunting, and quiet access to stands. It holds young hardwoods and mixed timber and is enrolled in Indiana's Classified Forest and Wildlands Program for a reduced property tax assessment. The property adjoins tillable ground and sits across the road from more, putting food sources on multiple sides. Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge is about 2.5 miles away, and Splinter Ridge Fish and Wildlife Area is nearby for added public land hunting.

Located between Madison and Versailles on the east side of Jefferson County, Indiana, this +/- 55-acre wooded tract combines hunting ground, timber, and long-term land value. The property carries no deed restrictions or covenants. Most of the land forms a large square stretching approximately 800 yards from the southwest corner to the northeast corner, so it walks and hunts like a larger property than the acreage suggests. Approximately 350 feet of road frontage provides direct access. The property adjoins an 18.228-acre wooded tract with an off-grid, Amish-built log cabin that is also offered for sale. Together, the two create approximately 73 contiguous acres with lodging already in place. The woods hold young hardwoods and a variety of other timber, with habitat value today and growth potential for the future. The entire property is enrolled in Indiana's Classified Forest and Wildlands Program, which provides a reduced property tax assessment in exchange for following a professionally written forest management plan. This part of Jefferson County is known for deer hunting. Tillable farm ground in the surrounding area provides abundant food sources, while the timber offers the cover and bedding areas deer rely on. Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge sits very near the property, and Splinter Ridge Fish and Wildlife Area is not far away, adding public land hunting opportunities close to home. Versailles is about 14 miles (22 minutes) and Madison, the county seat, is about 15 miles (24 minutes), keeping groceries, supplies, and lodging within easy reach.
