78 Acres — Homesite + Whitetail Mecca Opportunity | Muskingum County, Ohio

Opportunities like this don’t come around very often.

For the first time, our 58-acre tract and 20-acre tract located directly across the road from each other in Muskingum County are being offered together as a 78-acre package — creating the kind of setup landowners dream about.

This property offers the rare ability to build, live, and enjoy your land on one side of the road while keeping your hunting ground completely undisturbed across the street.

The 20-acre parcel lays out beautifully for a future home, barn, mini-farm, or pond build, with utilities available at the road and a quiet dead-end road setting that provides both privacy and convenience. The layout naturally transitions from open ground into timber, giving the property both usability and long-term beauty as a homesite.

Directly across the road sits the larger 58-acre tract — a property that already checks nearly every box for whitetail hunting and land investment. With over 30 acres of quality tillable ground, a year-round creek, thick wooded draws, and a strong stand of walnuts and other timber, the farm has the kind of diversity that consistently attracts and holds wildlife.

A food plot has already been established along the timber edge near the creek, and the surrounding cover created by this year’s unplanted fields has turned the property into a magnet for deer activity. When you start noticing rubs the size of your calf along the timber edge, you know mature bucks are spending time here.

Together, these two tracts create a truly unique property where home life and hunting strategy can exist separately but within walking distance of each other. Build your home on one side, keep your hunting ground low-pressure on the other, and enjoy the flexibility of owning both.

From an investment standpoint, the tillable acreage provides options as well — lease the ground to a local farmer, utilize crop-share arrangements, or transition portions of the fields into wildlife habitat and food sources over time.

Whether you’re looking to create a rural homestead, a hunting property with a perfect basecamp, or a long-term family legacy farm, this 78-acre combination offers a layout that is incredibly difficult to replicate.

Properties that allow you to live comfortably while maintaining a truly huntable property just across the road are few and far between.
