Recreational Land for Sale in Downsville, Louisiana

Opportunities like this are hard to find. Spanning 420 acres in the rolling hills of northern Louisiana, the Ellis Timber Estate combines mature hardwoods and pines, established pine plantations, and scenic creeks into a property built for both immediate enjoyment and long-term value. Ideally positioned between Downsville and Calhoun with convenient access to Ruston and West Monroe, this is the kind of tract buyers wait for-and rarely see come available.

With fertile sandy loam soils, excellent drainage, abundant wildlife habitat, and paved frontage on Weems Road, this heavily wooded tract checks the boxes serious land buyers are looking for. Whitetail deer, wild turkey, and small game make it a standout hunting property, while the setting also supports ATV riding, trail development, hiking, and year-round outdoor recreation.

Whether you are looking for a private retreat, a premier hunting property, or a legacy timber investment, this estate delivers the scale, access, and versatility to make it happen. Utility connections would need to be established by the buyer, giving the next owner the freedom to shape future improvements around their vision and maximize the property's potential.
