1600 Hardesty Road 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. The property sits within a larger 242-acre offering being divided into 8 individual tracts, giving buyers the flexibility to purchase exactly the amount of ground they need. Highland Township provides a quiet rural setting with convenient access to nearby towns like New Concord, just 4 miles west, and Zanesville, roughly 18 miles down the road. 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. Hunters will appreciate the proximity to wooded cover and the wildlife corridor created by White Eyes Creek, which runs near the property. A cabin setup would work well here for anyone wanting a weekend retreat with easy access from Columbus, about 65 minutes west on I-70. The East Muskingum Local School District serves the area, which is worth noting for families considering a permanent move. Muskingum University in New Concord adds a college-town feel to the local community without the noise that comes with a bigger city. The Wilds, one of the largest wildlife conservation centers in the world, is about 25 miles southeast and draws visitors from across the state. Seneca Lake and Wolf Run State Park offer additional outdoor recreation within a short drive. Land at this price point in this part of Ohio does not sit on the market long. The combination of location, usable acreage, and available utilities makes this tract a straightforward buy for the right person. Whether the plan is a primary residence, a weekend cabin, or a small hobby operation, the ground supports it.
