35615 Starkey Rd Barnesville, OH 43713

Turnkey homesteads that touch public ground do not come up often, and this one meets it on two fronts. The 12.68 acre parcel borders 79 acres of Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District ground along its own line, and Egypt Valley Wildlife Area, roughly 14,300 acres of public deer and turkey hunting managed by the Ohio Division of Wildlife, begins within a half mile of the property. A hunter can step off the deeded line onto public timber and still be back at the house for lunch, which is the part of this listing that cannot be bought twice. The house is a renovated single story with about 1,900 square feet on one floor and a full walk-out basement underneath all of it. Three bedrooms, a full bath and a half bath, a fireplace, and wood finishes through the whole interior. A hot tub sits on the back deck and a timber pavilion porch fronts the house. The outbuildings carry their weight. A three bay steel shop stands on a full concrete pad, and a classic red gambrel barn plus additional sheds round out the storage. Box blinds are already standing in the timber, the food plot is worked, and a cut trail system runs the hardwoods from one end of the property to the other. Water and recreation sit close in every direction. Piedmont Lake and its 2,270 acres of state record muskellunge water are about twenty minutes north. Barnesville, its shopping and the Barnesville Exempted Village School District are roughly nine miles southwest, Dysart Woods old growth forest is about twelve miles out, Salt Fork State Park is about twenty five miles, and Wheeling is about thirty five miles. Interstate 70 access runs about twenty minutes for anyone commuting the corridor. The property has township road frontage on Starkey Road, parcel number 12-00535.000, in Kirkwood Township, Belmont County. Annual taxes run approximately 1,680 dollars per county treasurer records for 2025. Whether the buyer is a hunter who wants public ground without the crowds at the gate, a buyer who wants a finished home with acreage, or someone looking for a weekend basecamp with the work already done, this property answers.
