The hunting potential is obvious when you step on this property. It is hard to look one direction and not see deer sign. The 52 acres of CRP are conveniently located on multiple south facing slopes which offer ideal bedding areas, and it is clear the deer are utilizing these areas. The 100 acres mast producing timber offer a tremendous food source for game of all types. Multiple fingers of timber stretch out into the CRP which offer multiple travel corridors for big whitetails cruising the Sullivan County countryside. The mature timber and multiple creeks that run the property offer ample roosting sites for turkeys. It is easy to imagine the sound of gobbles rolling through the timber in the spring. There is a trail system on the property that allows easy access to most of the property. With a little bit of work, more trails could be cut for the avid trail rider.

The 5-acre lake named “Big Rock Lake” sits in the center of the property and is truly breathtaking. It offers flooded timber which provides tremendous habitat for crappie, largemouth bass, and channel catfish. Catching crappie the size of a dinner plate is not a rare occurrence. The lake is spring fed and sits 30 feet deep and will never run dry. There are multiple locations that a family can utilize for camping and enjoying the outdoors. The 4 other stocked ponds offer the opportunity to catch largemouth bass and channel catfish. The hunting and fishing opportunities on this property are truly special.

When you first arrive on the 160-acre property, you will take the private driveway up to a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom single wide trailer. This offers a great spot for you to gather with your family and friends after a long day of hunting and sit around the wood stove and tell the tale of your days hunt. Water, electricity, and propane are all present on the property. There is also a well on the property that could be utilized for water. The trailer makes a perfect hunting cabin and can be utilized for weekend getaways as well. The minimal road frontage makes this property extremely private and lets you get away from the hustle and bustle of the city life. The property sits 15 minutes from Milan, MO and Trenton, MO.

The property does offer the opportunity for income. A managed timber harvest could be done to alleviate some upfront cost. There are 52 acres of CRP that pays out $5,038.00 annually. The CRP contract expires in 2020 which would allow the new owner to put the tillable acres back into tillable production, or attempt to re-enroll those acres into CRP.

This is truly a one of a kind property that you do not want to miss. Call Brett Roberts to schedule your private showing today!
