Description

This property is currently under contract and scheduled to close. We will continue to entertain back-up offers until closing. 71+/- acre recreational property located about 3.5 miles south of Rend Lake, just west of Interstate 57 near Benton. This property has 22+/- acres of tillable farm land currently being farmed on a crop share with a tenant farmer. The Big Muddy River runs through the property's western side, allowing the owner to hunt waterfowl and fish. With tillable farm land serving as a large food source during all times of the hunting season, you'll find a large deer and turkey population that call this property home. There are roughly 18 acres on the west side of the river known to be some of the best deer hunting on the property. An active railroad track makes the north border, which is beneficial because it prevents hunters from sitting on the property line. While this is an active track, it is only used a few times a month. At the far east side of the property, roughly 5.5 acres are used as a hunting camp. There is a 30x45 shed with 17x30 finished area as a living space. The shed features a wrap-around porch on three sides, making for a great place to hang out and take in the views that this property offers. On the south side of the shed there is a full RV hookup with a 30- & 50- amp plug, allowing easy access to pull an RV up and set up very quickly. On the northeast corner sits an old home site with a lot of potential for a new owner to build if they desire. To set up a showing of this unique recreational property, contact Jared Gilomen at 618-972-3295.
