Recreational And Tillable Property Near Casey, Illinois In Clark Co
N 350th St. Casey, IL 62420
Description
If you have been looking for a smaller acreage property that combines productive tillable ground, timber, wildlife habitat, and potential for a future homesite or weekend retreat, this property just south of Casey, Illinois deserves a close look. Located at the intersection of N 350th St. and E 480th Rd. in Clark County, this tract offers a versatile mix of agricultural and recreational land with convenient road access and utilities available along the road.
The property contains a little over 11 acres of tillable ground that is currently being farmed and planted in soybeans for the current growing season. The tillable acreage carries an average Productivity Index (PI) of 97.2, providing a strong agricultural component for a property of this size. The primary soils include Wynoose silt loam and Ava silt loam, creating an even balance between the two. For buyers looking for a property that can provide both recreational appeal and agricultural utility, the tillable acreage adds an important income-producing and land-management component.
Beyond the open ground, the remaining acreage is wooded, with most of the timber concentrated in the southeast portion of the property. The wooded area provides a natural transition from the agricultural ground into cover and habitat. The timber consists of a nice mix of hardwood and softwood trees, with scattered walnut trees located along the bottoms. This combination of timber types, open ground, and edge habitat creates several features that can be attractive to wildlife and recreational landowners.
Deer sign is readily evident throughout the property. Multiple trails cross the tract, and the amount of observed deer sign indicates that the wooded portion and surrounding agricultural ground are being used by whitetails. The combination of food-producing tillable acreage and nearby wooded cover can provide useful habitat diversity on a relatively compact tract. For the recreational buyer, this creates opportunities for hunting and wildlife observation, while the surrounding agricultural landscape can further contribute to the property's overall wildlife appeal.
The layout also provides flexibility for a variety of potential uses. With road frontage at N 350th St. and E 480th Rd., the property is positioned for convenient access from two county roads. Utilities are located along the road, which adds another important consideration for anyone evaluating the property as a potential homesite, cabin location, or weekend getaway. Utility availability should be independently verified with the applicable providers, and buyers should conduct their own due diligence regarding zoning, building requirements, septic, water, and access.
The property's location just south of Casey provides a balance between rural land ownership and proximity to local services. Casey is a Clark County community located along the I-70 corridor and is known for its collection of large roadside attractions and small-town amenities. Clark County also provides several recreational destinations, including Mill Creek Park and Lincoln Trail State Park, offering additional opportunities for outdoor recreation in the surrounding area.
From a land-use perspective, this is a property that offers several components in one package. The productive tillable ground provides agricultural utility, while the wooded acreage contributes wildlife cover and recreational potential. The timber and established trails add character to the property, and the presence of utilities along the road creates potential for future improvements, subject to local regulations and utility availability.
Whether your primary interest is owning a manageable tract of recreational land, maintaining productive tillable acreage, establishing a rural homesite, or creating a weekend cabin property, this Clark County tract offers a combination of features that is increasingly difficult to find in a smaller acreage offering. The property's location near Casey, productive soils, wooded cover, visible deer activity, road frontage, and access to nearby utilities make it a versatile opportunity for a variety of land-use objectives.
