Powhatan County - Richmond, VA
Property Listing: 216 Acre Timber Tract in Powhatan and Cumberland Counties, VA
Welcome to a remarkable opportunity to own a large, multi-functional tract of land situated in the heart of Central Virginia. Encompassing approximately 216 acres, this expansive timber tract spans Powhatan and Cumberland Counties, offering a unique combination of investment potential, recreational possibilities, and natural beauty. Located just 55 minutes from Richmond, Virginia, this property is an ideal acquisition for land investors, outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, and individuals seeking a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of urban life.
Overview of the Property
This property is comprised of approximately 216 acres of varied terrain and rich, diverse ecosystems. With multiple land types, including planted pine, bottomland, and streamside management zones (SMZ), this tract provides a balanced landscape that supports wildlife habitats, timber production, and potential future development. A formal survey will be required, as the property will be sold on a per-acre basis. The southern boundary is delineated by a power line right-of-way, offering a clear, practical, and accessible border.
Timber Value and Forestry Investment
One of the standout features of this property is its timber composition. Approximately 102 acres of the tract are planted in premerchantable pine, established in 2013. This plantation is well on its way to maturity and will soon become a source of significant income for the future owner. Premerchantable timber, especially when managed correctly, represents a strong long-term investment. The pine trees are in the prime of their early growth cycle, and with proper silvicultural practices, including thinning and prescribed burns, the forest can yield high returns in the coming years.
The remaining acreage includes approximately 100 acres of bottomland and Streamside Management Zones (SMZ). These low-lying areas are crucial for maintaining water quality, preserving biodiversity, and providing a buffer for sensitive aquatic ecosystems. While these zones are not typically harvested for timber, they add ecological value and may offer potential for conservation easements or carbon credit programs. Their presence also significantly enhances the habitat for wildlife, supporting deer, turkey, and numerous other species.
Recreational and Wildlife Features
For the outdoor enthusiast, this property is a paradise. The diverse habitats found across the property support a thriving population of game animals, particularly white-tailed deer and Eastern wild turkey. The mix of upland pine, bottomland hardwoods, and open areas created by the power line right-of-way create ideal conditions for hunting. Hunters will appreciate the multiple vantage points and the ability to create food plots, trails, and strategically placed blinds or tree stands.
Beyond hunting, the property is well-suited for other recreational activities such as hiking, ATV riding, birdwatching, and camping. The power line corridor may serve as an excellent trail system or be used for utility access and maintenance. Whether you're interested in weekend getaways, organized hunts, or wildlife observation, this tract has everything needed to enjoy the great outdoors.
Location and Accessibility
Conveniently located just 55 minutes west of Richmond, this tract strikes the perfect balance between accessibility and seclusion. Richmond, the capital of Virginia, offers all the amenities of a major metropolitan area, including international airport access, medical facilities, universities, restaurants, and entertainment. Despite its proximity to the city, the property is private and rural, providing a true escape to nature.
The property's location in both Powhatan and Cumberland Counties means that it benefits from the infrastructure and services of two local governments. Powhatan County is known for its blend of agricultural charm and residential appeal, while Cumberland County boasts a rich history and abundant natural resources. Together, they offer a strong rural community and a welcoming environment for landowners.
Potential Uses and Opportunities
This 216-acre timber tract offers a wide array of possibilities depending on your goals and vision:
1. Timber Investment: With over 100 acres of young planted pine, the tract is well positioned for long-term timber revenue. Ongoing management can enhance growth rates, stand health, and eventual yield.
2. Hunting and Recreation: Develop trails, blinds, food plots, and campsites for personal enjoyment or lease the hunting rights for additional income.
3. Conservation and Environmental Stewardship: Protecting the SMZ and bottomland areas can provide ecological benefits, qualify for conservation programs, and possibly generate income through carbon credits or easements.
