Oklahoma Cedar Lake Cabin Adjoins National Forest with Acreage

This "One of a Kind" property is nestled in the heart of the Ouachita National Forest in a beautiful valley setting between the Winding Stair Mountain Range to the South and Blue Mountain to the North. The south property line has frontage to the 1.5 million acre Ouachita National Forest, which provides hunting opportunities for whitetail deer, eastern wild turkey, black bear, wild hog and other small game as well as direct access to an impressive network of ATV, hiking and horseback riding trails that are operated and maintained by the US Forest Service. This property is located 1 mile East of Post Mountain Lake and less than 10 miles from Cedar Lake, which is where the last two Oklahoma state record largemouth bass were caught. Near-by towns include Heavener, Talihina, Big Cedar, Broken Bow and Hochatown. This property is about a 4 hour drive from Dallas, Texas. At the bottom of this listing is a Google Earth image with the property perimeter outlined in red. Services to Property: Rural Electricity, conventional septic system, and LP gas delivery. There is a functional water well with downhole submersible electric 10 gpm pump, pressure switches, carbon filter and volume tank. The water well equipment is housed in an insulated metal weather proof building with concrete slab foundation. Initial flow testing of the well showed the water rate to be 28 gallons per minute! The property is accessed by a county-maintained gravel US Forest Service Road (Post Mountain Road). This is an all-weather access road. There is a locked entrance gate and 2-3/8" pipe rail fencing along the North property line. The cabin sits on 4 acres of level to gently sloping land. The property is covered with a mature stand of hardwood and evergreen timber that is native to south eastern Oklahoma including a diverse variety of oak trees, redbud, hickory, sweet gum, eastern red cedar and native shortleaf yellow pine. The south property line has frontage to the 1.5 million acre Ouachita National forest. Horse Trail #8 comes within a few hundred feet of the property, which provides direct access to approximately 200 miles of horseback and hiking trails maintained by the US Forest Service. Wildlife are frequently seen on the property as well as the adjoining National Forest. The cabin was constructed in 2020 and includes roughly 1275 square feet of heated and cooled living space with 2 bedroom, 1 bath and a large sleeping loft area. The cabin sits on a concrete slab foundation. The exterior of the cabin is designed to be maintenance free. The exterior walls and roof are covered with brown colored 26 gauge metal roofing and there is vinyl siding in the soffit areas. The interior of the cabin is finished out with a mix of rustic tongue and groove white pine and textured sheet rock, knotty pine interior doors, and rustic wood colored water proof laminate flooring. The cabin was designed and built to be energy efficient to minimize heating and cooling costs. Energy efficient vinyl windows with Low-E glass and Argon gas were used throughout the home and there is an energy efficient 30,000 Btu/hr ductless mini split heating and air conditioning systems. The cabin has 2 x 6 stud walls with extra insulation. NOTE: There is an adjoining guest cabin, shop, pond on 4 acres that can also be purchased separately. Agent's Comments: This "One of a Kind" property is an outdoorsman's paradise and, in my opinion, this property can be classified as true "Investment Grade Recreational Property". It is the ideal setting for a relaxing and peaceful weekend getaway from city life or even a full time residence. This is a very unique recreational property that provides direct access to the 1.5 million acre Ouachita National Forest with hunting, horseback riding, hiking, ATV riding, camping and fishing. The cabin could easily be rented out on a part time basis for a secondary source of income if desired.
