Here's a once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase a large tract of developable land just outside Athens' city limits. The property borders what is known as "Bong Hill," that epic spot to which generations of OU Bobcats have pilgrimaged for its stunning, comprehensive view of campus, the city and the Hocking River, all while under the heady influence of elevation, and who knows what else. Unbeknownst to most of those pilgrims, the perch from which they view our fair city is state-owned property, but the infamous boulders and rock formations that are adjacent are on privately-held land. And what a piece of land it is! Comprised of over 128 acres of mostly-wooded terrain, the property includes an improved, accessible road that leads directly into the heart of the property. The trees are big here, the understory remarkable, and the development potential inexhaustible. Cabin rental businesses, executive home sites, commercial possibilities and access to pre-existing separate parcels via Harmony Road. Several old homes dot the property, at least one of which could be salvaged and put back into service.
