The acquisition of significant acreage within the Monroe corridor represents a diminishing opportunity for land banking and private estate development. This forty-acre holding is anchored by a 1,400-square-foot residence, recently modernized to serve as a primary seat or a sophisticated guest house during a larger-scale build. The topography is defined by substantial stands of harvestable timber, offering both immediate natural privacy and a tangible resource for the steward. While the current infrastructure is refined, the primary value lies in the land's inherent flexibility, as the parcel size and configuration allow for a multi-home family compound or a thoughtful residential subdivision. In a submarket where large, unencumbered tracts are increasingly being absorbed by institutional developers, this site provides a rare level of autonomy for the private investor. Strategic positioning near local transit veins ensures the property remains connected while maintaining its rural composure. Please contact Peters & Associates to arrange a private walkthrough of the grounds and residence.
