Located within the city limits of Edison in Calhoun County, Georgia, this 23.87-acre property offers a combination of established agricultural use and potential for future land-use options. With approximately 20 acres of tillable farmland, the tract provides a substantial amount of open ground in a southwest Georgia community with convenient access to surrounding towns and regional markets. Approximately 20 acres of the property are currently leased to a local farmer. The tenant farmer is allowing the acreage to lie fallow for the current growing season. The existing agricultural use gives a buyer the option to consider continued farming or agricultural leasing following the terms of any existing lease agreement. The open acreage may also accommodate other agricultural uses depending on the plans of the new owner and applicable regulations. The soils on the property are comprised of Greenville sandy loam, Faceville sandy loam, and Clarendon loamy sand. These soil types are found throughout portions of southwest Georgia's agricultural region. Buyers interested in specific crops, agricultural production, construction, septic suitability, or other uses should independently evaluate the soils to determine their suitability for the buyer's intended purpose. An important characteristic of this property is its location within the Edison city limits. The land can remain in agricultural use, while its in-town location also provides an opportunity for a buyer to investigate other potential uses. The acreage could potentially be considered for residential development or other housing-related uses, subject to applicable zoning, subdivision requirements, utility availability, permitting, and approval by the City of Edison and other governing authorities. No representation is made that the property is currently approved for residential development or any specific development plan. Prospective buyers interested in development should verify current zoning, permitted uses, utility availability, minimum lot sizes, subdivision requirements, and other applicable regulations directly with the City of Edison and appropriate governmental agencies. The approximately 20 acres of tillable ground provide an established agricultural component that may appeal to buyers seeking farmland in Calhoun County. Because the farmer is allowing the ground to remain fallow this year, a prospective purchaser can evaluate future agricultural plans based on the existing lease, soil characteristics, and intended use of the property. The tract's combination of open acreage and its location within the city limits creates several potential ownership strategies. A buyer could maintain the property's agricultural use, evaluate future agricultural leasing, hold the acreage as a long-term land investment, or investigate the feasibility of residential development. Any change in use or development would be subject to applicable zoning, permitting, utility requirements, and governmental approval. The property's manageable acreage may also be of interest to buyers who want more land than a typical residential lot without the maintenance requirements associated with a substantially larger farm. With most of the acreage already in open farmland, the property has an established land-use history and does not require the extensive initial clearing associated with heavily wooded acreage. Location is another factor to consider. The property is situated within Edison, a small southwest Georgia community in Calhoun County, while remaining within driving distance of several larger towns and cities. It is approximately 20 miles from Cuthbert, Georgia, 21 miles from Blakely, Georgia, and 40 miles from Albany, Georgia. Across the state line, Dothan, Alabama is approximately 53 miles away, while Columbus, Georgia is approximately 78 miles from the property. These regional connections provide access to additional shopping, agricultural services, medical facilities, employment centers, a
