Description

Rare opportunity to own 320 acres of private land with merchantable timber and long-term stewardship already in place. Managed under a forest management plan since 1993, this partially fenced property has been carefully maintained with sustainability in mind—areas harvested over the years were reforested with spruce, larch, and pine. The remaining timber is estimated to average approximately 90 years old, offering strong long-term value and potential. The property has been surveyed, adding confidence for future planning and development. In 2025, standing timber was professionally cruised by Protech Forest Resources, providing updated information for buyers exploring forestry, investment, recreational use, or future opportunities. GST is applicable. (id:63159)
