Terrell 53

Overview

Rarely does a tract of this size come available in Terrell County with a producing pecan grove already in place. This 53 +/- acre property, surveyed from the southern portion of tax parcel 054 027, accessed from Bobby Locke Road, combines 16 +/- acres of young, well-maintained pecan trees with approximately 37 acres of open, tillable ground and a dependable 6-inch irrigation well. It is a turnkey small farm opportunity and, at the same time, a platform for growth: the open land offers a clear path to expand the orchard, and the trees are just entering their most productive years.

The Pecan Grove

The grove consists of 16 +/- acres of approximately 12-year-old pecan trees planted in Hamil and Easterlin varieties. These young trees have reached early production with a net yield of 21,145 lbs in 2025 — and pecan trees of this age are only beginning their climb toward peak bearing capacity. A grove with more than a decade of establishment behind it, and decades of increasing production ahead, offers a buyer both current income and built-in appreciation. With continued care, yields per acre should rise steadily as the canopy develops.

Expansion Potential

The balance of the tract — roughly 37 +/- acres — is open, productive, tillable land currently suited for row crops and easily converted to pecan production. Planting the open acreage in pecans would more than triple the size of the orchard, and the 6-inch well, producing approximately 150 gpm, is in place to support irrigation as the new trees establish. For an investor or operator looking to build a scaled grove from a proven foundation, this property removes much of the risk and the wait.

Soils

According to the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Soil Survey of Terrell County, the soils on this tract are predominantly Tifton sandy loam, with areas of Faceville sandy loam and Tifton, Norfolk and Orangeburg loamy sands. These deep, well-drained Coastal Plain soils are among the most sought-after farm soils in Southwest Georgia, and are widely planted in pecans and row crops throughout the region. Terrell County itself rates the orchard and the majority of the open land as Soil Productivity Class 2 — the county's second-highest productivity classification — confirming the land's agricultural strength. Simply put, these are the right soils for pecans, and the existing grove is proof.

Water

A 6-inch well on the property produces approximately 150 gallons per minute, giving the tract a reliable irrigation water source for the existing grove and for future tree plantings. Water is the limiting factor for most young pecan operations in the region; this property has it already developed.

Location & Access

Access to the property is from Bobby Locke Road in Terrell County, Georgia, in a quiet, well-kept farming area near the community of Sasser. US Highway 82 connects the area to Dawson and Albany, keeping the tract an easy drive from both while remaining firmly in one of Georgia's most recognized pecan-producing counties. The subject tract is the surveyed southern portion of tax parcel 054 027; the homesite and improvements on the remainder of the parent parcel are excluded from this offering. A copy of the survey plat is available upon request.
