Description
If you’ve been searching for a farm with a legitimate history of producing mature whitetails, this 125.76± acre tract in Wayne County deserves your attention. This property has all the key ingredients serious hunters and land investors look for: strong deer history, established habitat improvements, income-producing tillable acreage, and excellent access.
The farm features approximately 36± acres of quality tillable ground. This productive acreage not only enhances the overall layout of the property but also plays a critical role in holding and attracting deer throughout the season. Whether left in row crop production or strategically managed in conjunction with the existing food plots, this ground strengthens the farm’s ability to grow and hold mature bucks.
Roughly 20± acres of established switchgrass provide outstanding bedding cover. This type of habitat creates security for deer, especially older age-class bucks that demand thick, secluded cover. The switchgrass, combined with natural travel corridors throughout the property, creates predictable movement patterns that can be hunted effectively.
Several established food plots are already in place, offering ideal setups for early- and late-season hunting. The property shows exceptional deer sign, including well-defined trails and heavily used travel routes connecting bedding to feeding areas.
Access is another strong feature. With road frontage and a gated entrance, you’ll enjoy secure, controlled entry to the farm. The layout allows hunters to slip in and out of stands and blinds with minimal disturbance, a critical advantage when targeting mature bucks.
Blinds are already positioned on the property and can remain with the right offer, adding immediate turnkey value for the next owner. In addition, a small cabin is present and could be negotiated into the sale. The cabin offers a convenient base camp for weekend hunts or extended stays during peak rut activity.
From strong agricultural ground to proven deer habitat and a track record of big buck encounters, this farm checks the boxes for both hunters and landowners seeking a well-balanced investment. Properties with this combination of habitat, access, and history do not come available often. This is an opportunity to own a highly functional hunting farm with established improvements in a proven area. Contact Land Specialist Josh Malone at 618-292-9183 today to schedule your tour. You won't be sorry!
