4865 E Co Rd 800 N

Located in northeastern Orange County along the east side of Leipsic, this approximately 276.23-acre property offers a combination of road frontage, established timber, and long-term conservation management. The property lies along paved Leipsic Road with approximately three-quarters of a mile of frontage on its northern boundary, providing multiple existing entrances and convenient access. The farm is divided by the historic Monon Trail into two distinct sections. The northern portion, consisting of approximately 75.49 acres, includes road frontage and a mix of timber and former fields that were planted in trees 30 to 40 years ago. These plantings have matured into developing woodland, with varying canopy cover and early successional growth that supports diverse habitat conditions. This section offers several potential wooded building site locations with access to utilities. South of the trail lies approximately 200 acres of timber enrolled in a perpetual conservation easement. The easement restricts the construction of permanent structures and requires adherence to established conservation guidelines related to timber stand improvement and wildlife habitat management. The result is a large, contiguous block of managed woodland intended to remain in long-term conservation use. This southern section includes a gas line right-of-way that creates additional edge habitat and interior access. The property as a whole reflects decades of land stewardship, with areas that were once open pasture or cropland now transitioning into established forest. Portions of the timber remain in earlier stages of growth, allowing filtered sunlight to reach the forest floor and promoting understory vegetation. These conditions contribute to a mix of bedding cover, browse, and travel corridors for wildlife. The surrounding landscape is open agricultural ground, making this wooded tract a significant block of cover within the area. The size and layout may appeal to those seeking recreational land for hunting, wildlife observation, or long-term timber management, as well as to buyers interested in a rural homesite opportunity on the northern acreage outside the conservation easement.
