217.34 Acres in Nauvoo, IL - $1,429,010

Top-tier hunting property in Northern Hancock County: This exceptional tract is one of the most diverse and well-rounded properties I’ve encountered in years. Combining tillable farmland, CRP income, dense bedding areas, strategic connecting habitats, pastureland, and some of the finest hunting opportunities in Western Illinois, this property offers an unparalleled experience for the whitetail enthusiast. Access to the property is via a 50-foot easement on the eastern side. The east portion consists of 30+/- acres of improved pasture, with a pond in the middle of the property, offering year-round water for livestock. There are several great building sites on the east side of the property, providing views of the pond and the surrounding landscape, which is ideal for a cabin or building. Head west into the heart of the property, and you’ll find a diversity of habitats. The northeastern section of the property includes 30.4+/- acres enrolled in CRP, paying $4,997 annually. Additionally, 72+/- acres of tillable farm ground are cash-rented for $9,000 annually. The tillable acres are interlaced with the timber acres and offer some of the finest deer hunting in Western Illinois. While the proximity to the river can result in some steeper terrain, rest assured that the property remains fully usable. The tillable acres are interlaced among the timber, with hidden coves, miles of field edges, and numerous food plot locations. This area is known for producing high-quality whitetails year after year, and the property's topography makes it difficult for neighboring hunters to access areas near the property lines. The dense habitat both on and surrounding the property further enhances its appeal. The western part of the property has a 10-acre field, perfect for establishing a destination food plot, surrounded by excellent bedding cover. With a solid trail cam history and the potential to be one of the more premier hunting farms in western Illinois, this property is priced to sell.
