60 AC. CIVIL WAR BATTLEFIELD, HOME, PECAN FARM
~~~~HISTORICAL LOCATION: Located in the rolling hills of central eastern Oklahoma in the edge of Tamaha, Oklahoma on a point along the banks of the old Canadian River Channel which is now part of Robert S. Kerr, this historical estate is located on a bluff that provides a vantage point for spectacular views of the lake. This is the state civil war naval battle site where Confederate Indian forces, led by Cherokee Brig. Gen. Stand Watie forced aground and captured Union Steamboat J. R. Williams with cargo valued at $120,000 on June 15, 1864. Southern troops included Choctaws, Chickasaws, Creeks & Seminoles.

~~~~~HOME: A brick & wrought iron gated entrance leads to the brick wainscot & vinyl sided 1360 sf., 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bath, home which was built and first occupied in 1996. It is located on a crest from which you can see the land and the lake area through the many windows that surround the home under a wrap around porch. The home is well maintained inside and out. All kitchen appliances are included.
~~~~~LAND: The land is a rolling 60 + acres with excellent soils. Improved bermudagrass covers the grassland area between the pecan trees rows. Also between the pecan trees are irrigated various irrigated berry vines. ~~~~~~~PECAN ORCHARDS: There are about 40 acres of irrigated young Pecan Trees about 10 years old. The trees are mostly Pawnee variety with a few Perug & Naconee pecan trees for properly pollination. This previous 2008 production was over 5,000 lbs. which the seller marketed locally. The owner reports that with proper management these trees will be capable at full maturity of an average yearly production of 2,000 lbs. per acre, which would figure 40 Ac. x 2,000 lbs. x $3/lb. = $240,000 potential gross income.
~~~~~PECAN MGT. EQUIPMENT: All the major pieces of equipment to run this pecan farm are included: Savage PTO Shaker, 2 Meyers Crackers, 2 Blowers, Savage 500 Gallon Sprayer, 1992 year model 82 HP Bularis Tractor with front end loader, 2000 yr. model Bularis Cab Tractor, 10' Krone Brush Hog, JD 510 Hay Bailer.
~~~~~WATER: The owner has a transferrable pumping permit to irrigate the pastures and pecan trees. There is also a well and the home is serviced by metered rural water like city water. A wind mill pumps water to an above ground storage tank to water the blueberries, blackberries & garden spot.
~~~~~LAKE: Robert S. Kerr Lake is a hot fishing spot on the Arkansas navigation system featuring over 40,000 surface acres.
~~~~~HUNTING: Definitely a hunter’s paradise!! Whether hunting or just watching, the wildlife is abundant on this point. The Kerr Game Refuge is located just north across the lake and is a safe haven for multiple species of birds which brings many into the area. A few marshy grassland islands just across the old river channel offer excellent cover for waterfowl and a perfect set up for duck or goose hunters. The sellers report that they regularly see all types of birds including bald eagles. They have hummingbird feeders that had more hummingbirds than I have ever seen in my life. They regularly see large whitetail bucks, fox, bobcat, cottontail rabbits & squirrels.
~~~~~SHOP & BARNS: Nice 24’ x 24’ shop with concrete slab foundation is next to the home. 1 open pole barn & a metal covered pole barn.
~~~~~SERVICES: Electric, propane gas, telephone, rural water, mail route, school bus route, satellite tv, satellite internet.
~~~~~PROPERTY TAXES: Currently $302
~~~~~PRICE: $450,000 REDUCED to $400,000 plus throwing in all the pecan equipment. Seller says they will consider reasonable offers!
*****The river channel curved to the south side at Pheasant Bluff. When the J.R. Williams rounded the curve, the Confederate guns opened up. The first salvos hit the pilothouse, smashed into a smoke stack and disabled a boiler.*****Check out the interesting facts of this one of a kind historical property at http://web.archive.org/web/20001109072800/http://kotv.com/okt/jrwilliams.asp
