Situated along E 1300th Road, a well-maintained oil and chip county road, the property provides convenient access while maintaining a peaceful rural setting. The location is ideal for those seeking a country homesite, weekend getaway, hunting property, or income-producing land investment.

Positioned less than 10 minutes from both Casey and Martinsville and just a short drive from Interstate 70, the property offers easy access for commuters, outdoor enthusiasts, and investors alike. The combination of road frontage, available utilities, and multiple potential building locations makes this tract attractive for anyone looking to construct a home, cabin, or recreational retreat in a desirable rural setting.

A unique feature of the property is its balance of open ground and timber. Nearly half of the acreage is wooded, creating excellent wildlife habitat and recreational opportunities. Turkey Creek runs through the western portion of the property, providing a natural water source for wildlife. The timbered areas and creek corridor offer good cover and travel routes for deer and other game species. The timbered portions provide cover and travel corridors for whitetail deer and other native wildlife, making the property well-suited for hunting and outdoor enjoyment. Small recreational tracts with a mix of timber and open ground continue to be highly sought after in this area due to their versatility and manageable size.

The property also includes a valuable Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) component that generates annual income while enhancing wildlife habitat and conservation benefits. Approximately 5.97 acres are enrolled in a CP44 CRP planting that surrounds the field area. This established habitat provides excellent cover for wildlife while creating an attractive visual appeal throughout the property. The CRP contract generates approximately $1,443 in annual income and remains in effect through September 30, 2031, providing a reliable revenue stream for future ownership.

An additional feature that adds flexibility is the approximately 3.22-acre area located in the center of the CRP planting that is not enrolled in the program. This open acreage presents several possibilities for the next owner. It could be developed into a food plot designed to attract and hold deer and other wildlife, creating an enhanced hunting setup. Alternatively, the acreage could be utilized for row crop production, allowing an owner to generate additional income or support local farming operations. The surrounding CP44 habitat creates an ideal transition zone that benefits both wildlife and agricultural uses.

Whether you are searching for a small Illinois hunting property, a rural homesite with income potential, a recreational retreat, or a land investment with established CRP payments, this property checks many boxes. The combination of annual income, excellent access, available utilities, wildlife habitat, and convenient proximity to Casey, Martinsville, and Interstate 70 creates a unique opportunity in a desirable location.

Small tracts that offer investment value, recreational enjoyment, and future development potential are increasingly difficult to find.
