Description

This 40 acre recreational and hunting land tract near Butlerville offers a large home, mature woods, creek frontage, and an opportunity to expand ownership with an additional 80 acres currently available for purchase. Located at the end of a dead-end road, the property provides a private setting while remaining within a short drive of North Vernon, State Road 50, and several local communities. The residence includes approximately 4,929 square feet of living space with four bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The layout includes a living room, kitchen, dining area, and a main-level primary suite with a walk-in closet. A spacious walkout basement adds usable living, storage, or recreation space and includes walkout doors and basement windows. Exterior features include a large deck, covered patio, and block garage. The 40 acres are predominantly wooded and have not been timbered. A timber appraisal completed in January 2026 identified more than $79,000 in estimated timber value. The woods provide cover, travel corridors, and habitat for deer, turkey, songbirds, and other wildlife. Long Branch Creek runs along the eastern portion of the tract, with more than 1,000 feet of creek frontage. The combination of wooded acreage, water, and a home creates options for hunting, hiking, wildlife observation, camping, and full-time or weekend use. An additional 80 acres are available for sale, allowing a buyer to potentially assemble approximately 120 total acres. This added acreage could provide more room for recreation, hunting management, trails, or long-term land ownership. The property is close to Butlerville and a short drive from North Vernon for shopping, dining, and services. State Road 50 provides convenient regional access. Seymour, Columbus, and Versailles are each approximately 35 minutes away. This property combines a substantial residence, wooded acreage, creek frontage, and available expansion acreage in Jennings County.
