5-Acre Affordable Homesite — Electric Available, Practical Usable Ground, Highland Township, Muskingum County
This 5.5-acre tract on Hardesty Road in Muskingum County delivers a solid foundation for anyone looking to build, farm on a small scale, or simply enjoy the land. At 5 acres, the tract is sized right for a homesite with room to spare for a garden, a few animals, or a small hobby farm operation. The layout is practical and usable — not cut up by terrain issues or wasted corners.
Electric is available on site, making it ready for development without the headache of running utilities from a distance. A cabin setup would work well here for anyone wanting a weekend retreat with easy access from Columbus, about 67 miles west on I-70. Hunters will appreciate the proximity to wooded cover and the wildlife corridor created by White Eyes Creek, which runs near the property.
Highland Township provides a quiet rural setting with convenient access to New Concord, just 4 miles west, and Zanesville roughly 18 miles down the road. Land at this price point in this part of Ohio does not sit on the market long.
