1498 County Road 243 LOT WP001, Fort Payne, AL 35967

A property that has ALL the features comes along on rare occasions, but this is one of them. The entrance takes you in on a private road, with cedar trees lining the driveway, and open meadows on both sides, often filled with deer. At the end of the road, your view opens up into a large hay field. The house is tucked into the corner of the pasture overlooking a pond and the open pasture. The house is approximately 1850 s.f. with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The kitchen is well equipped with quality cabinets and a center island. The living space is large and open with high ceilings and an inviting place to relax. Looking out the large clear glass windows you can see an outside world that is full of natural beauty. From the wide back porch it is very common to see deer feeding under an apple tree in the back yard as well as turkeys and other wildlife crossing the pasture to the west. The pond is just south of the house and within sight. It is well stocked with bream, bass and some catfish. A great place to walk down and catch some fish to filet for supper. The land itself is outstanding with numerous trails allowing you to travel all throughout the beautiful mature hardwood forest. These trails take you by a flowing mountain stream in many locations. This stream has big rocks and makes for a peaceful place for a walk as you can see and hear the babbling brook, and ripple of the water in numerous areas around the property. I could not imagine a better place to take a hike, ride a UTV or horse on a cool fall afternoon. There is even one place where the current owner has kept a cup out by a spring on the property and can give it a dip in the spring and get a drink of water, while out on the trails. The land consists of about a 16 +/- AC of open area up near the house where the pond is located. It would be great for a pasture for cattle, horses or hay production. On the back 40, there is a 6 +/- AC open field, which would be great for another hayfield. It is also outstanding for deer and turkey hunting, this field has cover all around it and the deer on this place are impressive. A large shooting house is in place and it's not uncommon to see 10-15 or more deer on a sit. There are small food plots throughout the hardwoods ideal for bow hunting. The terrain is flat to gently rolling with no steep areas. Located in the community of Tucker's Chapel on top of the Lookout Mountain plateau this property is in a rural setting yet close to Fort Payne, Little River Canyon National Preserve and Weiss Lake. If you have been looking for these elements in your ideal property please give listing agent Ben Richardson a call and to discuss more details and set up a private showing.
