60Acres Equestrian Land with Scenic Trails

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Located in the scenic countryside of southern Michigan, this surveyed 59.6± acre property at 2600 Wells Road in Summerfield Township offers an exceptional opportunity to own a versatile tract that blends recreational appeal, equestrian potential, and an outstanding location in Monroe County. Whether you're looking to establish a private horse property, build your dream country home, create a weekend retreat, or invest in quality recreational land, this property provides the space, natural beauty, and flexibility to bring your vision to life. A defining feature of the property is its extensive network of established trails that meander through beautiful mature hardwood timber. These shaded trails create an inviting setting for horseback riding, hiking, ATV use, and exploring the property's natural beauty. The mature woods provide excellent privacy while allowing easy access throughout much of the acreage, making the property enjoyable year-round for outdoor recreation. The property's location further enhances its appeal for horse enthusiasts. The northern property line borders an established horse property, contributing to the area's rural and equestrian character. With a combination of wooded riding trails, open ground, and gently usable terrain, this property offers outstanding potential for a private horse farm, boarding facility, riding arena, training area, barns, paddocks, or pasture development, subject to Summerfield Township approval. The front portion of the property features more open acreage with convenient access from Wells Road. This area offers excellent potential for a future residence, barn, equipment building, indoor or outdoor riding arena, or other improvements while maintaining the privacy of the wooded acreage beyond. The layout allows future owners to separate living and equestrian improvements from the secluded trail system, creating an ideal balance of functionality and recreation. More than five acres of established wildlife food plots currently provide attractive habitat for local wildlife while also presenting additional flexibility for future land use. These open areas could potentially be converted into pasture, hay production, expanded riding space, or other agricultural uses depending on the buyer's objectives and the appropriate approvals. Selective timber management may also provide opportunities to increase usable open acreage while maintaining the property's natural character. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the excellent wildlife habitat found throughout the property. The combination of mature hardwood timber, established food plots, and diverse cover supports healthy populations of whitetail deer, wild turkey, and numerous other native wildlife species. Whether your interests include hunting, wildlife photography, birdwatching, or simply enjoying nature, this property offers exceptional recreational opportunities in every season. Beyond the property itself, buyers will enjoy convenient access to numerous equestrian resources throughout Monroe County and nearby northwest Ohio. The Monroe County Fairgrounds regularly hosts horse shows, 4-H events, and equestrian activities. Flying Change Farm in nearby Ottawa Lake provides boarding, lessons, and training opportunities. Riders can also enjoy the designated 14.5-mile equestrian trail system at Oak Openings Preserve Metropark, complete with horse trailer parking and rider amenities. Combined with the property's own private trail network, these nearby facilities create an exceptional environment for recreational riders and horse owners alike. The property's soils include Gilford sandy loam, Spinks loamy sand, Ottokee fine sand, and Thetford loamy sand. Buyers considering construction, septic installation, pond development, pasture establishment, or other improvements should conduct their own due diligence and consult with qualified professionals and Summerfield Township officials regarding suitability for their intended use. Large tracts offering mature hardwood timber, established trail systems, open acreage, road frontage, excellent wildlife habitat, and outstanding equestrian potential are becoming increasingly difficult to find in southern Michigan. This 59.6± acre property offers a rare combination of recreational enjoyment, country living potential, and long-term versatility in one of Monroe County's desirable rural settings. All buyers should independently verify zoning, permitted uses, building requirements, driveway permits, soil suitability, agricultural regulations, livestock allowances, and all intended improvements with Summerfield Township and the appropriate professionals.
