Located off Chapel Road near Laurel, Indiana in Franklin County, this +/- 10-acre parcel offers a combination of productive tillable ground and wooded acreage with direct road frontage and a flat, usable layout that gives a future owner considerable flexibility in how the land is used. Approximately 8.5 acres of the property is tillable, with productive soils and a level topography visible across the field. The tillable ground occupies the interior of the parcel with the field edge tucking into the northern timber, creating a natural transition between the open ground and the surrounding woods. A wooded buffer along the western boundary provides a degree of separation between the field and Chapel Road. The flat nature of the tillable ground also provides options for a buyer interested in constructing a home or outbuilding on the site, subject to applicable Franklin County zoning and permitting requirements. Heavy timber borders the property on the north. The rounded northern end of the tillable field tucks directly into this northern timber block, creating a nice pinch point where deer transition between the timber and the field. Combined with the large timber tracts bordering the property to the north and south, this layout creates the kind of terrain that tends to hold and stage deer consistently throughout the season. Also due to the heavy surrounding timber, the soybeans attract deer all season long. The current owner has hunted the property and noted great deer activity over the years. The parcel has direct frontage along Chapel Road at the southern boundary, providing straightforward access without the need for an easement or shared drive. The flat terrain and open acreage make site planning for a future home or outbuilding more practical compared to the hillier and more heavily timbered parcels common in this part of Franklin County. There is already a culver installed at the road entrance.
