Historic 524.36-Acre Ranch – First Time on the Market in Over a Century
This remarkable 524.36-acre ranch has been in the Ron Cotton family for over 100 years and is now available for purchase for the first time since its original acquisition. Rich in heritage, the ranch has a diverse history—once serving as a peanut farm, dairy, and cattle operation.

The land is predominantly level pasture, providing sweeping views of the surrounding countryside. Scattered oak trees create excellent wildlife habitat, attracting native whitetail deer and adding to the property's natural charm.
