225-acre working cattle farm offers a rare opportunity to own a turn-key agricultural operation in scenic Russell County. The farm features a diverse blend of grazing pasture, productive hay fields, and mature wooded acreage, creating an ideal setup for a beef cattle enterprise while also providing outstanding recreational and wildlife habitat. Well-designed livestock infrastructure includes multiple barns for hay storage, equipment, and livestock handling, along with perimeter fencing and cross-fencing that allows for efficient pasture/livestock management. The farm is equipped with multiple feeding stations, corrals, cattle sorting/working facilities, and a livestock watering system featuring 11 freeze-proof drinkers and two tire troughs, ensuring dependable year-round water access. Five ponds stocked with gamefish are strategically located across the property, enhancing livestock operations, wildlife habitat, and recreational opportunities. The property's mixed terrain offers steep wooded slopes, hillside pastureland, and gently sloping hay fields along a dramatic ridgetop. This ridgetop presents exceptional potential homesites with breathtaking long-range mountain views, spanning the full length and breadth of Russell County—with portions of all neighboring counties visible on clear days. Wildlife opportunities are outstanding thanks to the farm's mosaic of habitats including open pasture, scrub/shrub cover, wetland pond margins, early-successional forest, and mature timber. Hunters will appreciate excellent opportunities for trophy whitetail deer, turkey, and other game species, with elk occasionally visiting from neighboring counties. Miles of UTV/4x4 trails provide excellent access for farm management as well as recreational riding throughout the property. The farm is well positioned for a turn-key beef cattle operation, as cattle and farm equipment may be available for additional consideration.
