About The Property
Timberland in Georgetown County, SC
Exceptional large tract bordering the swampland of the Black River. This tract features mature forest and wetlands and is within walking distance to the small town of Andrews. The property ended up being identified as a key factor in the #BlackRiverInitiative, which seeks to create a 70-mile stretch of protected waterway and a state park that will open up access to this very underutilized natural resource in Williamsburg and Georgetown Counties.
HFL Represented the Seller, Weyerhaeuser, in this transaction.
