Rare opportunity to acquire a highly improved, contiguous 663± acre farm in northern Sangamon County bordering the Sangamon River. The property includes approximately 301 tillable acres with an impressive average PI of 119.6, 223 acres of pasture, 103 acres of mature timber, with the balance in ponds, roads, and improvements. An additional 93± acres of gently to moderately rolling pasture offers strong potential for conversion to cropland, providing a meaningful opportunity to expand production.
The pasture is thoughtfully designed for both livestock and equestrian operations with multiple fenced paddocks, automatic waterers, scattered ponds, and areas currently used for hay production. Mature timber lines the south and west ridges overlooking the Sangamon River, creating exceptional scenery, wildlife habitat, and recreational opportunities. A network of internal gravel and dirt roads provides convenient access throughout the farm.
Timber Ridge is a true turnkey agricultural and recreational property featuring several acres of well-maintained improvements, including a residence, 24-stall horse barn, indoor riding arena, shop/machine shed, hay shed, three storage buildings, bull barn, multiple livestock shelters, and approximately six miles of newer fencing. The improvements are well suited for professional farming, cattle production, and equestrian operations. Public water services the home and horse barn, while propane, well water, and solar panels support the remaining improvements.
Access is excellent from Cantrall Creek Road, just 3 miles east of Illinois Route 97 and only 12 minutes from Springfield, providing convenient access to regional markets. Grain marketing is supported by the local elevator in Athens and river terminals in Beardstown.
The property consists of 15 parcels and is enrolled under FSA Farm Numbers 12586 and 3923. The seller will not divide. Large, high-quality contiguous farms with this level of productivity, infrastructure, and recreational appeal are increasingly difficult to find in Central Illinois.
