Lying just below the companion tract along Walnut Grove Church Road, this 9.88± acre parcel settles into the lower end of the field where the cultivated ground tapers toward the Cypress Creek bottom. The terrain softens and falls away here, creating a sheltered feel and a natural transition from open field into a diverse mix of wetland cover, early successional growth, and mature timber along the creek corridor. The upper portion offers manageable tillable acres that could continue in rotation, be seeded into pasture, or serve as a clean slate for food plots and wildlife openings, while the lower ground provides thick bedding and natural screening that many buyers spend years trying to create. Multiple spots along the slope appear suited for a tucked-in homesite or simple weekend camp, giving you the option to build while still preserving the view across your own fields and woods. The wetlands and creek edge invite wood ducks, deer, turkeys, and small game, and the changing water levels leave behind sandbars and rock outcrops that are fun to explore when conditions allow. Being just a short drive from Louisburg, Justice, and White Level, the property feels removed from town but not remote, making it a realistic escape for someone who wants to leave work and be in a stand or on a tractor within minutes. Whether your goal is a small hunting and recreation tract, a future homestead with wildlife right out the back door, or a tangible land investment with character and water influence that is hard to replace, this lower-field parcel offers a lot of versatility in a single, manageable package. Important Note: Acreage and square footage is based on tax records and should be verified. Buyers should conduct their own due diligence regarding soil conditions, building suitability, and any development restrictions. Ready to Learn More?
