Farm Description

AFM Real Estate is proud to present McCoy Farms, a premier property located just minutes from the charming towns of Sandersville and Louisville, in the heart of East Georgia. This ±222-Acre farm sits in highly desirable Jefferson County along Gamble School Road. The landscape is remarkably diverse, offering a blend of land ideal for future timber and agricultural production, as well as outstanding opportunities for hunting, fishing, and other outdoor recreation.

McCoy Farms is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, featuring exceptional whitetail deer and turkey hunting. The current owner has made significant investments in both the agricultural and timber components of the property. In 2021, 74 acres of mass-controlled pollinated (Mcp) loblolly pines were planted on former agricultural fields. Additionally, 180 irrigated pecan trees were established across 10.5 acres, providing a source of annual income and further diversifying the land.

McCoy Farms is situated in an area renowned for large private timberland, recreational properties, irrigated row crop farms, and cattle operations. Jefferson County is well known for its excellent whitetail deer and turkey hunting. The property's location offers convenient access to the local towns of Sandersville, Louisville as well as more robust areas such as Augusta, Savannah and Statesboro.

Upon arrival at McCoy Farms, visitors are greeted by the nostalgic charm of an old farmstead with a rich history. From the moment you enter, the diverse landscape of agriculture and timber invites you to envision the countless hunting and recreational opportunities available. The owner has thoughtfully designed the property for the sportsman, with strategically placed viewing spots to observe wildlife transitioning from bedding areas in young pines to feeding areas along white oak and sawtooth oak rows, food plots, and pecan orchards during early mornings and late evenings.

The land features a balanced mix of planted pines, mature hardwood forests, pecan orchards, and food plots. Its varied topography and well-maintained road system provide easy access to all areas of the property by truck or Utv.

Wildlife and Habitat

McCoy Farms is best described as a wildlife sanctuary, meticulously managed with a focus on timber, agriculture, and wildlife. Multiple large game plots are consistently planted with wildlife-friendly mixes, attracting deer, turkey, and other game species. The owner has also installed wildlife feeders and mineral sites throughout the farm.

Mature, mast-producing oaks line the bottomland acres, while numerous sawtooth and white oaks have been planted to enhance habitat and food sources. An old fallow field has been transformed into an irrigated pecan orchard, further increasing the property's appeal to both wildlife and investors. The upland and bottomland acres along Durhart Creek offers excellent bedding and nesting conditions for turkey and ideal cover for deer. The expansive acreage and varied terrain create numerous ideal hunting settings, making McCoy Farms a true sportsman's retreat.
