0 Poplar Springs Road

Located near Dooling in Dooly County, Georgia, this 96+/- acre recreational and timber property combines mature timber, established wildlife habitat, convenient paved road access, and annual Conservation Reserve Program income. With frontage and access along Poplar Springs Road and Jalappa Road, the property offers multiple access points and a practical layout for hunting, timber management, recreation, and long-term land ownership in South Georgia. Approximately 70+/- acres consist of mature planted pine, creating a substantial timber component across the majority of the tract. Mature planted pine can provide both wildlife cover and timber management opportunities, giving a future owner options to evaluate the stand based on current timber conditions and long-term ownership goals. An additional 21+/- acres consist of mature hardwood and pine mixed timber. This timber diversity adds habitat variety and creates natural transitions between pine stands, mixed woods, established food plots, and surrounding agricultural land. For the hunter, the property is positioned in an agricultural area with a strong combination of cover and nearby food sources. The surrounding farmland provides agricultural food sources for local wildlife, while the property's mature timber offers cover and travel habitat. The property is reported to have excellent whitetail deer genetics, adding to its appeal as a Dooly County deer hunting property. Established food plots provide dedicated areas for wildlife management and hunting setups, while an existing trail system helps provide access throughout the acreage. The combination of mature planted pine, mixed hardwood and pine timber, food plots, trails, and nearby agriculture gives a landowner multiple habitat types to work with when managing for whitetail deer and other wildlife. Existing trails can assist with scouting, stand access, property maintenance, and recreational use. The food plots provide a foundation for an ongoing wildlife management plan without starting from an entirely undeveloped recreational tract. Access is another important feature. The property has access from two paved roads, Poplar Springs Road and Jalappa Road. Multiple paved-road access points can be valuable for hunting different wind directions, reaching different sections of the property, timber management, equipment access, and general land maintenance. This road configuration also adds flexibility when planning future improvements, subject to applicable county requirements and existing program restrictions. In addition to its recreational and timber characteristics, the property is currently enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program, commonly known as CRP. According to the property information provided, the CRP contract generates $9,326 in annual payments and continues through 2032. CRP is administered by the USDA Farm Service Agency and uses long-term conservation practices intended to protect natural resources and enhance wildlife habitat. A prospective buyer should review the existing CRP contract, payment history, acreage, conservation practices, transfer requirements, and remaining obligations with the appropriate Farm Service Agency office as part of due diligence. The property was also enrolled in Georgia's Conservation Use Valuation Assessment, or CUVA, program in 2021 to reduce property taxes. CUVA can be an important consideration for buyers evaluating the carrying costs of qualifying Georgia agricultural and forest land. Prospective purchasers should confirm the current CUVA covenant, assessed value, expiration date, transfer requirements, permitted uses, and any potential penalties associated with a breach or change in qualifying use with the Dooly County tax authorities before closing. Taken together, this 96+/- acre Dooly County land offering provides a combination that can be difficult to replicate on a tract of this size.
