Description
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a wildlife mecca located in the Wabash River bottoms. The property offers exceptional whitetail hunting along with outstanding waterfowl opportunities, thanks to multiple wetland areas and direct access to the Wabash River.
Approximately ±142 acres are enrolled in the WRP program, providing phenomenal habitat and cover. The landscape features a diverse mix of native grasses, young timber, and pockets of old-growth trees. Multiple low-lying areas hold water throughout the year, including a long slough that creates excellent opportunities for duck and goose hunting.
Access to the ±142 acres is from E 1150th Ave, following an old farm road that meanders north through the property. Portions of this road have naturally grown over the years and could be cleared and reopened if desired. At the north end of the property, a well-maintained grass lane runs west along the northern boundary. From the northwest corner, another mowed lane extends north and then turns east, leading to an additional ±11 acres.
This ±11-acre tract is not enrolled in any conservation program and carries no restrictions, unlike the WRP acreage, which requires Compatibility Use Agreements (CUAs) through the NRCS. This unrestricted area can be cleared and developed for food plots, making it a major asset and a true game-changer for managing wildlife.
The far eastern portion of the property features impressive, mature timber along the river and provides direct river access. A particularly stealthy hunting strategy would be to access this area by boat from the Wabash River, allowing minimal disturbance.
With its diverse habitat, water features, river access, and development potential, this farm offers endless possibilities and outstanding hunting opportunities.
Call Adam Crumrin, Land Specialist, (217-276-2334) today to schedule a showing of this truly special property. A survey will be needed to split one parcel up, as the seller would like to keep a portion in the northwest corner.
