Description
This smaller acreage tract is located along Highway 51 in Jackson County, Illinois, positioned between Du Quoin and Carbondale. The property offers approximately one-quarter mile of highway frontage, providing convenient access and multiple potential entry points. Its location along a well-maintained roadway allows for straightforward travel to nearby towns while maintaining a rural setting. County water and electric are available along the road frontage, offering added convenience for those considering future improvements or development. The property is predominantly timbered, consisting primarily of mature hardwood species. The timber composition provides a mix of open understory areas along with sections of thicker vegetation. These dense areas of underbrush create natural cover that can support wildlife movement and bedding activity. The property lies in proximity to agricultural fields located across the highway, which can contribute to a balanced habitat environment by combining cover with nearby food sources. The terrain appears suitable for a variety of recreational activities, including hunting, hiking, and general outdoor use. The wooded setting may also provide options for a future home site or cabin, subject to local zoning and permitting requirements. With its extended road frontage, there are several locations where access points or potential build sites could be evaluated. This tract offers an opportunity for buyers seeking a manageable acreage property in Southern Illinois. Its size makes maintenance easier than on larger parcels, while still providing the benefits of timbered land and wildlife habitat. The location between Du Quoin and Carbondale places the property within reasonable driving distance of amenities, services, and regional attractions. Whether you are looking for a recreational tract, hunting property, or a location to consider for future development, this Jackson County acreage offers a combination of accessibility, timber coverage, available utilities, and proximity to established communities.
