Auctioneer's Note:
I enjoyed being on this property, taking pictures and getting the lay of the land. The history of early settlers, the many majestic oak trees, the turkeys running in the grass, all this plus Silver Creek with its many secrets, draws me, as it will you, to the property. Livestock grazing and wildlife recreation come together in this affordable sized acreage. Give us a call and spend part of your day among the hills. The opportunity is yours. See you at the auction!
