The Long Family FarmWelcome to the family farm that has a rich history of hunting and a history within Hampshire County. This property has not been offered to the open market since the 1970s and is now looking for its new owners. Not just a large acreage but a place to escape to, explore the mountain trails and listen to the wildlife.Upon entering the property, you are met with a large yard, a cabin by the creek from the 1920s and a bunk house from the 1960s. The bunk house has served as a central hub for the hunt club that has leased this ground for the past 30 years. This is a great place to hang out, warm up from those cool fall hunts or just make memories with friends and family. The cabin on the creek has the bones of old hand-hewn logs that have been preserved by the overhanging porch. Much of the exterior shows age and could use some repairs to make it into another bunkhouse or a ...
The Long Family FarmWelcome to the family farm that has a rich history of hunting and a history within Hampshire County. This property has not been offered to the open market since the 1970s and is now looking for its new owners. Not just a large acreage but a place to escape to, explore the mountain trails and listen to the wildlife.Upon entering the property, you are met with a large yard, a cabin by the creek from the 1920s and a bunk house from the 1960s. The bunk house has served as a central hub for the hunt club that has leased this ground for the past 30 years. This is a great place to hang out, warm up from those cool fall hunts or just make memories with friends and family. The cabin on the creek has the bones of old hand-hewn logs that have been preserved by the overhanging porch. Much of the exterior shows age and could use some repairs to make it into another bunkhouse or a relaxing getaway. On the walls of the cabin is the history of the property, as large bucks have been mounted, showing the opportunities the woods have to offer.Miles of trails travel and wind through this property, taking you through the valleys and on to the ridge tops. These trails are wide enough for ATVs or side-by-sides that leave no corner untouched. Most of these trails will lead right to large ladder stands where the hunt club sat for so many years. These locations range from looking over oak flats, valleys riddled with deer trails or pine thickets that hold thermal cover. A property of this magnitude has a lot of locations for deer to hide and the potential to begin managing a herd for better future opportunities. The surrounding landowners currently practice QDMA and this property could be the missing center piece to make it all work fluidly.On the front portion of the property, the owners recently had a select harvest done on 106 acres. This is not like your standard cut with debris all around. Trees were cut, and the remaining trees and limbs were turned into wood chips and hauled out, making the property aesthetically pleasing. Grasses and forbs have begun to take over the once-desolate forest floor and are now providing food and cover to the local wildlife. The remaining oaks are growing faster and healthier with an abundance of acorns falling this year. This area is a prime location for a turkey or deer hunter as the sign is tremendous.An opportunity like this does not hit the market often in the Eastern Panhandle.
