Country Home Site and Recreational Property - For Sale

Property Location:  This property is located in a very private and scenic valley setting in Southeastern Oklahoma about 5.5 miles Southeast of the small community of Summerfield, Oklahoma. The property offers spectacular views of Blue Mountain, Brushy Mountain and Winding Stair Mountain to the South. The new property owners will enjoy the very best of country living and yet still be close to the modern conveniences that are offered in the nearby towns. The property is located within ½ mile of the 1.8 million acre Ouachita National Forest and within 1.5 miles of the Poteau River.  Additionally, the property has frontage to the Wister Wildlife Management Area which provides excellent hunting opportunities for whitetail deer, eastern turkey, feral hogs, black bear and numerous small game species.

 GPS Coordinates: 34.87024, -94.77491

Property Access:  This property has direct access off a good paved county maintained road.  There is a driveway onto the property. 

Utility Services:  Rural electricity, rural mail delivery and propane gas delivery.  There is a rural water line at the county road but currently the Rural Water Dept is not allowing new water meters at this time.  There are many water wells in the surrounding area and ground water can typically be found at a depth of 100 to 250 feet.   Conventional septic systems are commonly installed in this area.

Deed Restrictions:  There are not any deed restrictions for this property.

Water:  There are three ponds located on the property that serve as a year round source of water for livestock and local wildlife.  One of these ponds is stocked with pan fish and bass and provides good fishing opportunities.  Additionally, there is a seasonal stream that flows through the property.

Water Well: There is an old hand dug water well on the property.

Land: There are 163 acres of land according to the LeFlore County Assessor’s records. The land is mostly covered with a nice stand of timber that is native to southeastern Oklahoma being a diverse variety of mast producing oaks, hickory, eastern red cedar and native shortleaf pine. There are some small cleared areas located inside of the timber areas which definitely make this place feel a lot bigger than it is. These cleared areas provide great edge habitat for wildlife and would make great food plot areas. I estimate about 28 acres of cleared area looking at Google Earth. One of the neighbors has been baling hay in the meadow area on the south side of the property.

Hunting Stands & Feeders: There are several hunting stands and deer feeders that will convey to the new property owner.

Fencing:  There is some barb-wire fencing around the property perimeter.

Mineral Interest: No mineral interest will convey with the sale which is common for this area.  Surface and surface only will be conveyed to the new property owner.

Good Home or Cabin Building Location:  There is a nice elevated knoll just off the County Road that is close to utilities that would be a good location for a new Country Home or weekend cabin. Additionally, there is a beautiful ridge that runs through the property which would be a good building site. With minimal clearing there would be very nice views of the mountains to the South and possibly Wister Lake to the North.

Agent’s Comments: If you are searching for a place to enjoy active retirement, perhaps run a few head of livestock and if you like hunting, mountains and a rural lifestyle, then this beautiful property offers all that and much more.  Good county road frontage with utilities if you want to build a new country home with the added bonus of nice mountain views.  Many lakes and streams for fishing are found throughout the area and the property is conveniently located near the 1.8 million acre Ouachita National Forest, the Poteau River and has frontage to the Wister Wildlife Management Area.
