This 9.54 acre tract is one of four individual offerings carved from a larger 46.82 acre property just north of Freetown, in Jackson County, Indiana. It sits on a dead-end road, so through traffic simply doesn't exist here - the road terminates at Hoosier National Forest, putting public hunting, hiking, and recreation land within easy reach up the road, though this particular tract does not directly touch the forest boundary. The tract carries approximately 317 feet of road frontage and runs roughly 1,310 feet deep, with its own dedicated driveway separate from the other three tracts in the offering. That depth gives real separation from the road for anyone wanting a private building site or a secluded recreational setup. A system of newly created trails crosses the larger property, ready for hiking or side-by-side (SXS) use. Water and electric are available at the road, removing one of the biggest hurdles to building - this is a legitimate option for a cabin, home, or weekend retreat, not just recreational ground. The area is one of the best-connected pockets of public land in southern Indiana. Jackson-Washington State Forest is nearby in Jackson County, with Brown County State Park and Yellowwood State Forest adding tens of thousands more acres to the north. The Charles C. Deam Wilderness - Indiana's only federally designated wilderness area - and Monroe Lake, the state's largest reservoir, are both within reach as well. Because the road dead-ends at the forest boundary, traffic here is minimal and there are few other homes nearby. State Roads 135, 58, and 258 are all close by, keeping travel north, south, and east straightforward despite the seclusion. Freetown is about 2 miles away, with Seymour, Columbus, Indianapolis, and Louisville all within a reasonable drive. The property lies within Brownstown Central Community School Corporation.
