Description
This top-notch property consists of 88.6 acres of blended income-producing ag and timber located in Richland County, Illinois, just 5 miles outside of Olney. The acreage includes approximately 39.8± acres of tillable ground. The balance of the property is wooded with varied terrain, including ridges, draws, and rolling hills.
The timbered portion supports a diverse habitat providing food, water and bedding, three main components for growing and holding those mature bucks. There is very visible evidence of deer activity in the form of rubs and scrapes throughout the woods. While flying my drone over the property and taking pictures, I saw several deer bedded down throughout parts of the timber
A food plot has already been established on the property, offering an opportunity to attract more deer. The size of the tillable acreage also provides potential for year-round sources of food with additional food plots and tillable production.
The property features two ponds that serve as important water sources and enhance the wildlife habitat by providing water for deer. Again, the presence of water, food plot, wooded bedding cover, terrain, and tillable acreage combine to create a near-perfect setting for hunting, farming, or other recreational uses.
Access to the property is straightforward, being only a short distance from Olney. The city of Olney serves as the county seat of Richland County and provides services and amenities for the area. Given the mix of tillable ground, established food plot, quality water sources, wooded cover, and favorable terrain, this tract offers a flexible platform for a variety of uses including hunting land, recreational retreat, or long-term wildlife management or farming. Whether the new owner wants to focus on deer management, expand agricultural opportunities, or enjoy recreational access, this property provides a foundation for multiple land-use goals.
