Chilton County - Verbena, AL
Nestled in the heart of Chilton County, Alabama, is a 572-acre expanse of pure hunting & recreation.
Imagine driving through the gates of your very own hunting paradise, leaving the hustle and bustle of city life far behind. The journey to Buck Haven is surprisingly convenient—just an hour and fifteen minutes from the city of Birmingham, a mere thirty-five minutes from Montgomery, and a three-hour drive from Atlanta. Yet, it feels like a world away, offering a sanctuary of peace and privacy.
As you navigate the property, you come upon strategically placed food plots, designed to attract and sustain a diverse array of game. These plots, coupled with well-positioned shooting houses, promise a hunting experience like no other. The topography of the land is nothing short of breathtaking. With rolling hills reminiscent of the Appalachian foothills, the landscape offers a variety of terrains and vistas along with 1.4 miles of frontage along the crystal-clear Chestnut Creek, which meanders its way to Lake Jordan just 1.5 miles downstream. This pristine waterway adds a touch of magic to the land, inviting you to fish, kayak, or simply enjoy the beauty of its sparkling waters.
The centerpiece of this magnificent property is a sprawling 12,000 square foot metal building. Approximately 3,000 square feet of this structure have been transformed into office space, with the remaining 9,000 square feet as warehouse space, ideal for storing tractors, equipment, and all the tools necessary to maintain and enjoy your property. This versatile building holds endless potential—imagine converting it into a luxurious hunting lodge, where friends and family can gather to share stories and create memories. The extensive infrastructure already in place means you can start enjoying the land immediately, transforming it to suit your vision at a fraction of the cost it would take to build from scratch.
Nestled beside a one-acre pond, you'll find a rustic one-bedroom hunter's cabin. This hunter’s cabin offers a perfect spot to unwind and begin enjoying immediately while the hunting lodge is brought to life. Nearby, a 1,200 square foot barn stands ready to serve a multitude of purposes, from storing gear to housing horses or even transforming into additional guest accommodations.
547 acres are secured with over four miles of high fence, installed in 2014, creating a haven for wildlife and a very beneficial management tool. This feature not only enhances the hunting experience but also ensures peace of mind, knowing that the property is protected and secluded.
Adding to the allure and mystique of this land is Gold Mine Creek. Legend has it that former landowners discovered traces of gold here, sparking the imagination of modern-day explorers. Alongside this historic creek lies a small cave, an intriguing feature that adds a sense of adventure and wonder to the property.
In the heart of Alabama, this 572-acre recreational paradise awaits. Give Tim James, Jr. a call to schedule a private showing.
