The property may be cleared to develop a great mini-farm. Big Chimney Forest offers beautiful mountain vistas in a quiet countryside surrounded with plenty of opportunities for the recreational fun-loving family. Come . . . join us in the mountains.

With an attractive species mix, adequate stocking levels, and favorable diameter class distribution, the timber amenities represent a strong component of the value to the investor. This well-maintained timber resource can provide a great deal of flexibility to the next ownership in terms of potential harvest revenue in future and can be managed to provide cash flow opportunities to offset holding costs and long-term asset appreciation. The forest has predominantly well-drained upland terrain which has led to a resource dominated by hardwood species. Overall, the species composition is highly desirable and favors Appalachian hardwood types, consisting primarily of white oak, chestnut oak, poplar, cucumber, sugar, red oak, soft maple, and a host of associated species. WILDLIFE Big Chimney Forest is an ideal wildlife preserve. Surrounded by farm fields and Appalachian hardwood forest, the use of constant and adherence management goals have promoted overall wildlife health, facilitated by the harvest of game and the development of food plot areas. These measures increase the carrying capacity and species diversity on Big Chimney Forest. The diversity of tree species, the abundant water supply, and the numerous fields around the property create a perfect wildlife habitat. The edge effect created between creeks, hollows, ridges, and rock outcroppings on and around the property benefits all the residential wildlife. Whitetail deer, black bear, wild turkey, squirrels, rabbits, bobcats, raccoon, foxes and many species of songbirds, owls, and raptors make up the resident wildlife population. The hardwood forest provides the essential nutrient source and produces tons of hardwood mass which include acorns, hickory nuts, and beechnut. Big Chimney Forest is a hunter's or a nature enthusiast's paradise. MINERAL RESOURCES All rights the owner has will convey with the property.
