Description

Tract 2 of 2: This 43.71-acre rural tract near Osgood, Indiana offers a balanced mix of +-18 acres of tillable land-untouched for two years-and +- 25 acres of woods. The tillable soils are predominantly silt loams with favorable ratings. Hardwood timber was lightly harvested previously, encouraging new understory growth across rolling hillsides. Multiple access points exist: two established entrances from County Road 500 N and roughly 1,000 feet of frontage. Electric and water services are readily available at the roadside. A new professional survey dated December 2024 clearly defines acreage and property lines, excluding the splits. Topographically, a field is set back from the road, offering build sites with limited visibility from the frontage. From the interior, nearly no neighboring homes are visible. The mix of open field, wooded edges, trails, and interior trails supports hunting for deer and turkey, enabling quiet entry and exit routes to minimize disturbance to wildlife. Along the southeast boundary, the property borders Sugar Creek for approximately 2,200 feet. A limited floodplain-extending about 100 feet on either side of the creek-occupies only a small portion of the total acreage. Potential uses include new residential construction, crop farming, livestock operations, recreational hunting, or long-term holding and investment. The combination of open ground, forest, dependable infrastructure, and surveyed boundaries accommodates a variety of rural land uses. Nearby outdoor amenities enhance the region’s recreational appeal: Ripley County is home to extensive public lands, including Versailles State Park-featuring more than 5,900 acres of forest, trails, and a 230-acre lake-and the Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge, which spans over 50,000 acres across multiple counties with opportunities for public hunting and wildlife observation.
