Income-Producing Hunting Farm With Home And Buildings In Southern McDonough

This 83.36 acre property offers a balanced mix of CRP income, wildlife habitat, and functional improvements suited for both recreation and residential use. Approximately 52.94 acres are enrolled in CRP, generating $12,718 annually, along with an additional 10 acres of tillable farm ground providing $2,000 per year in cash rent. The remaining acreage includes timber pockets and brushy cover that create natural funnels and travel corridors for wildlife, with visible trail networks reflecting consistent deer movement between open grass, timber edges, and transitional cover. Improvements on the property include two connected residences totaling approximately 3,050 square feet. The one-story section is approximately 1,420 square feet with two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and an open concept combining kitchen, dining, and living space anchored by a wood stove and a full walkout basement. The two-story side contains approximately 1,630 square feet with one bedroom and living space on the main level and three additional bedrooms upstairs. There is an additional room with a tub/shower combination on the main floor of this section. This part of the house has not been utilized for many years. A detached garage, traditional barn with hayloft and stalls, and a machine shed for additional storage are also near the home site. The property features road frontage on three sides, large interior CRP tree plantings that provide bedding and security cover, and timber edges along the northern boundary. With a return on investment, strong habitat diversity, and practical residential and agricultural features, this property presents a well-rounded opportunity for recreation, investment, and long-term land stewardship in southern McDonough County near Plymouth, Illinois.
