Eight wooded acres offering a generous stretch of level, usable land along the Old Indian Trail road frontage before the property slopes down toward the creek at the back. While the lot has frontage on Lebanon Church Road, where county water access is possible - most buyers will likely find a well more economical here, since tap fees plus the cost of burying water lines across the property could add up to roughly what a well would cost. Jackson EMC can provide electricity, and any home built would be on septic (Level 3 soil test on hand - see associated docs). No restrictions - both stick-built and manufactured homes are permitted. Zoned A2. East Jackson School District. Priced well below other comparable acreage in the area, reflecting the sloped, less-usable terrain toward the creek on the back portion of the lot. Bonus: the neighboring 2.553-acre lot (79 Old Indian Trail) will have a renovated home for sale soon. Please inquire for more information.
