HANCOCK COUNTY, IL
GENERAL INFORMATION
PRICE REDUCED - MOTIVATED SELLERS Along the bluff of the Mississippi River Bottoms near the Hancock/Adams County Line, is this beautiful 86.79 acre farm. Once you are on the property you will notice the newly installed gravel roadway that takes you up through the beautiful hardwoods and into the large, lush food plot. Cedar thickets, old field growth and many south facing slopes have the ability to hold whitetails throughout the year. The 12.5 acre field on top includes a recently cleared and developed 2 acre and ½ acre food plot. Mature oaks and walnuts would provide a significant amount of timber value if the new owner elected to have a selective harvest. Electric and Rural water are in close proximity for the new owner to build a home or cabin. A really neat rustic barn would provide ample space for storage or gatherings. The recent improvements made to this farm allow for unlimited access and many possible building sites overlooking the scenic Mississippi River bottom. Make sure and take a look at this one!
