±125 Acres Of Longleaf Pine

The Clio Longleaf Tract is a well-managed timberland and recreational property located in southwestern Marlboro County just outside the town of Clio on paved Hebron Dunbar Road. The property combines attractive longleaf pine stands, strong wildlife habitat, and excellent accessibility in an area known for productive timber ground and quality hunting opportunities.

The tract benefits from over 500 feet of paved frontage along Hebron Dunbar Road and more than 2,000 feet of frontage on Laverne Road, where power is available. This combination of access and frontage provides flexibility for future use while making the property easy to navigate and manage.The property is primarily made up of two attractive planted longleaf pine stands that have clearly been well cared for over the years. Stand 3 consists of approximately 60 acres of 23-year-old planted longleaf pine that was previously thinned. The stand is clean, open, and visually impressive with healthy trees showing good form and spacing. The understory is easy to walk through and offers the classic appearance longleaf pine properties are known for. A future thinning could further improve wildlife habitat by increasing sunlight to the forest floor, encouraging additional native grasses, cover, and browse. Stand 4 contains approximately 42 acres of 15-year-old planted longleaf pine that is now beginning to produce pine straw income potential. This stand is well stocked, attractive, and positioned for future management opportunities as it matures. A thinning in the coming years should continue to improve stand health, wildlife habitat, and long-term timber value.For the recreational buyer, the tract offers excellent habitat for deer, wild turkey, fox squirrels, and other native wildlife. The open nature of the longleaf stands already creates good visibility and usability, while prescribed fire and future thinning could further enhance habitat quality and recreational appeal.
