Shannon Road Tract

The Shannon Road Tract is a pleasantly situated property in southern Chester County. The tract contains 67 acres of beautiful natural forests from boundary to boundary. Roughly 13 acres of mature, natural hardwoods line rocky-bottom creeks, giving cooling shade in the summer and nature’s best attractant in the fall. Approximately 55 acres are occupied by a well-developed 20-year-old natural forest. Although full of diversity, this is primarily a pine forest offering management opportunities for habitat improvement and timber production. Trails and lanes are throughout the property, providing ample access and accommodating the wildlife observer. Topography is just what you’d want in the piedmont; gentle enough for cool winter walks with enough hills for character and insulation. What was once an old homesite now hides a secluded opening for hunting. Several game patches are in place and many of the lanes could be cleared for supplemental plantings. Creeks on the property supply the headwaters for Little Rocky Branch and entertain with miniature shoals and falls. The property is accessed by a short, formerly county-maintained drive to Shannon Rd. The community of Blackstock is less than 2 ½ miles to the west. From there, another 15-minute drive will take you to downtown Chester. Interstate 77 is less than 10 minutes away, making Columbia and Charlotte each just an hour’s drive.
