Description
The 1871
Situated in Tennessee, The 1871 is a remarkable 1,871-acre property located near Centerville, TN, offering an exceptional combination of hunting land, farm, ranch, and recreational opportunities. Currently operating as a working ranch and premier hunting and recreational destination, this tract represents one of the most compelling large-acreage offerings in Middle Tennessee. Properties of this size and caliber rarely come to market in this region, making The 1871 a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking a legacy recreational tract, a long-term investment, or a versatile agricultural and development property.
Location
Located in Tennessee approximately 15 miles from both Centerville and Linden, The 1871 offers a sense of true seclusion without sacrificing accessibility. Hohenwald is roughly 20 miles away, and Nashville is just over an hour's drive, making this an ideal retreat within reach of a major metropolitan area. The property sits near the prestigious Duck River and Buffalo River, as well as Mousetail Landing State Park, providing additional recreational resources just beyond the property boundaries. Power is currently in the process of being extended to the interior of the tract, further enhancing its long-term usability and development potential. The combination of natural surroundings, nearby amenities, and proximity to Nashville positions this property as a uniquely well-located large-acreage holding.
Access
The 1871 is accessed via Firetower Road with county road frontage, and the gate to the property sits at the end of a short county road, providing unmatched privacy while maintaining easy and legal access. Once inside, approximately 15 miles of well-maintained internal gravel roads allow vehicle access throughout the entire tract, making this property feel far larger than its 1,871 acres and significantly simplifying land management, food plot maintenance, and recreational use.
Topography
The property features a varied landscape with clay and mixed soils supporting a diverse range of land uses across its rolling ridges and timbered terrain. The topography includes a mix of heavily wooded areas, open cleared ridges, and grassed fields, creating a dynamic and functional landscape that lends itself well to both wildlife management and agricultural operations.
Improvements
The 1871 includes a beautiful lake and pond surrounded by cleared green fields on the ridges, providing a central focal point for recreation and wildlife activity. Adding to the property's turn-key appeal, a collection of high-end Backwoods Shooting Houses are strategically positioned throughout the tract and will convey with the sale, allowing the next owner to begin hunting operations immediately upon closing.
Timber
The timber on The 1871 is primarily oak-dominated hardwood, with varying ages spread across the property, offering a healthy and productive forest ecosystem. This diverse mix of heavily wooded and selectively cleared areas supports both the wildlife population and the long-term timber value of the tract. The oak-dominated canopy serves as a natural food source, providing consistent mast production that benefits the property's wildlife throughout the year.
Wildlife and Recreation
The 1871 is set up as a premier hunting farm, with abundant populations of whitetail deer, Eastern wild turkey, dove, and small game taking advantage of the property's well-managed green fields, hardwood timber, and varied habitat. Beyond hunting, the property supports a full range of recreational activities including ATV trails, bike trails, equestrian trails, and hiking trails, making it a well-rounded destination for outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds.
Water Features
The property features on-site creek access as well as a beautiful lake and pond, providing reliable water sources for both wildlife and livestock. The proximity to the Duck River and Buffalo River further enhances the recreational and agricultural water resources available to the new owner.
Current and Potential Use
Currently operating as a hunting and ranch property with strong recreational infrastructure in place, The 1871 is well-suited for continued use in those capacities or can be transitioned to support agricultural, livestock, equestrian, pasture, timber, or development operations. The 15-mile internal road system and existing improvements also make the tract an attractive short-term investment, as it could be efficiently divided into smaller, turn-key tracts with the infrastructure already in place.
Summary
The 1871 is a rare and versatile 1,871-acre Tennessee property offering a compelling mix of premier hunting, recreation, agriculture, and investment potential just over an hour from Nashville. With 15 miles of internal roads, high-end shooting houses, a lake, creek access, productive oak hardwood timber, and proximity to the Duck River and Buffalo River, this tract delivers exceptional value and long-term upside in a region where large-acreage properties seldom come to market.

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI think the teachers here are passionate and generally care about fully teaching their students. The problem I have is not with the school as much as in the US our education system is broken. Why are schools only tested on performing just "to" the national average(which is pitiful). Only 26% of students are PROFICIENT in math and Less than that in English and Reading Comprehension. I know it must be flustering to a teacher to truly care and try to hold students to a level that they know is to be achieved to make students "College Ready" to only be met by an organization(US education system) that only suggests they perform to a BASIC level.......BASIC level students are not usually prepared to ACHIEVE. I just know children that I see in the world now are functionally illiterate, can't spell, lack skills necessary to be taken seriously or convey ideas, lacking in following direction, rely too much on technology instead of personal know-how. I am just saying I am glad that my children go to this school cause teachers care and try...It is just sad that as a Nation our School Systems have failed us. Just like all things in life we need to set a higher standard to get more results.Parent Review14y ago - Hickman Co Sr High School
