Live here. Hunt here. Located on the far eastern side of the county is this very well diversified property that offers several income and recreational opportunities. There are currently about 30 acres of highly productive tillable farm ground in row crop production. Predominate soils include wakeland, kendall, and rozetta soils with an average PI of 125 across all tillable acres. There are several acres of open pasture ground along with approximately 40 acres of timber pasture that has been lightly grazed over the last few years and are grown up in thick habitat. The timber is mixed hardwoods and is very thick, providing several bedding areas throughout. There are several areas in the timber that would be ideal for very secluded kill plots and are easily accessible. The rolling topography of the land creates natural travel corridors and pinch points throughout the timber. There is a year-round creek running through the property providing an ample water source throughout the year. A small pond is located on the northeast corner of the property that is fully stocked. If you look at the surrounding area you will see there are hundred of acres of surrounding habitat that connects to this piece. The back tillable field would be a great opportunity to plant a larger food plot and attract and hold a large number of deer and turkeys throughout the year on or near your property. In addition to the great recreational and income opportunities, there is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home located on the west end of the farm. The home has several unique attributes. Upstairs are two bedrooms and one bathroom. The main level has a large kitchen, dining room, living room and office area. There are several buildings on the property including a garage, open front storage building and a large post frame barn. This property has just about everything you could ask for. If you are in the market for a country residence, recreational hunting farm, or looking to add to your current farming operation, give me a call today for more details or to schedule a showing.
