When fishing for smallmouth bass, don’t be surprised if you accidentally pull out a Northern Pike from time to time! The river also attracts waterfowl, but the wet areas on the property are what truly help it shine for shooting ducks and geese. There are approximately 5 acres of water area spread out between 2 separate locations that are easily hunted over and are very accessible due to the depth of the water. If you’re into catching bullfrogs on a cool summer night, these are great spots for that too! The deer sign is evident on this property, and the river on the north side and the railroad tracks on the south side serve as a barrier so that the deer feel safe on this property. With that being said, the entire property is capable of being a sanctuary! The trail system on the property provides quick and convenient access throughout and allows for easy access with the tractor to get those food plots in the ground! If you don’t have equipment for planting the food plots yourself, don’t worry… the owners have already planted corn, soybeans, winter peas, clover, turnips, rapeseed, and sunflowers for this fall! You won’t have to do a thing. Just purchase this property and you’re ready to hunt over food sources. If you’re looking at this property for more than just hunting, there are approximately 8 acres of pasture where the owners raise a few cows for their personal enjoyment. If you’re looking for a hobby farm, you could do the same! The chicken coop and the 50x40 pole barn are a nice addition to the property as well, providing you more capability to turn that hobby farm into exactly what you want it to be. If you want horses, cows, chickens, or more, you’re all set! If you’re looking for more than just a hunting property or a hobby farm, there is a beautiful country home that is approximately 2,200 sq. ft. and would make the perfect primary residence or hunting lodge. The kitchen was recently renovated, has all newer appliances, and custom cabinets. Luckily for you, the owners installed brand new heat and central air in August of 2016! There are three bedrooms and one bathroom in the home, but another room could be used as a bedroom, and there is an additional working toilet in the basement. The three-car garage provides plenty of storage in addition to the pole barn. Get out of this beautiful farmhouse on a cool evening and cast out a line while enjoying the camping area where a fire pit already exists, and the sounds of critters along the river can be heard. I can assure you that properties like this don’t come available often! If you’re looking for a diverse property that can meet all of your needs, then this is it!
