Services:  This is an Off-Grid Property -

• Rural Electricity:  This is a very remote and sparsely populated area with no electrical grid service anywhere close to the property (over 2 miles away).
• Solar:  There are several nice cabin building locations with nice views that have great south facing exposure offering optimum solar system efficiency.  A solar system could be installed.
• Water Well:  Water wells are commonly drilled in this area.  Typically ground water can be found at depths from 100 to 250 feet below the surface.
• Septic System:  Conventional septic systems are commonly installed in this area.
• Cellular Service:   Limited AT&T cell service.  Verizon service is best in this area.
• LPG Gas:  Propane gas can be purchased at many of the near-by towns.
• Rainfall:  This area of South-eastern Oklahoma gets 48 to 50 inches of rainfall per year on average.  It is very practical to install a rainwater collection system.

Access to Property:  The property is accessed by using natural gas lease roads and logging roads that extend roughly 2 miles off the county maintained road.  At minimum a 2WD pick-up truck is recommended to access the property.  There is a locked gate approximately ½ mile south of the property which restricts public access.  The current owners pay a fee of $150/year for using the access road to the property.

Water:  There are two seasonal mountain streams that flow through the property.  NOTE:  The topography of this property is conducive for construction of a nice pond, which could serve as a year round source of water for local wildlife and provide fishing opportunities.

Land:  There are 160 acres (m/l) of land that is completely covered in a stand of mature timber that is native to South eastern Oklahoma including a diverse variety of oaks, redbud, hickory, elm, eastern red cedar as well as some impressive saw log size native shortleaf pine trees.  The property terrain is varied and includes some nice rolling ridges and creek bottom areas with several great locations to construct an off-grid cabin with amazing mountain views.  Additionally, there is a nice network of established ATV trails throughout the property.  Several cool natural rock outcropping along the ridge that runs east/west along the south property line.  This area provides great hunting opportunities for whitetail deer, eastern wild turkey, wild hogs and black bear as well as other small game species.  Potential future income stream from timber harvesting if desired by new owners. 

Agent’s Comments:  This is the ideal setting for a relaxing and peaceful weekend retreat from city life.  Additionally, this property could be used as a great start for a full time off-grid homestead to completely unplug from society.  This is a very remote and secluded wilderness type setting surrounded by miles of privately owned timberlands.  There are endless miles of side by side and 4 wheeler trails throughout the Sans Bois Mountain Range that can be accessed directly from the property.    Also, the area is conveniently located to some of the best fishing lakes in Oklahoma.
