40± Acre Hunter's Paradise In Crawford County Illinois

This is a rare opportunity to own a highly desirable recreational tract that directly adjoins the Crawford County State Fish and Wildlife Area, nearly 1,100 acres of contiguous woods and fields stretching roughly two miles long and one mile wide. The property sits along the east border of the wildlife area at the end of E 1650th Ave, offering exceptional privacy and direct access to expansive public ground.The land features a diverse mix of habitats that makes it ideal for wildlife. The north and west portions consist of mature hardwoods, while the central area is extremely thick with younger growth created by a 21.70 acre CRP planting. This CRP contract provides approximately $3,550 per year in income through 2027 while also creating outstanding bedding and cover. Two water sources run along the south and east sides of the property, including Hutson Creek, further enhancing wildlife attraction.Approximately three acres under the highlines offer an excellent location for a larger food plot, while two additional open areas have already been developed with Banks Blinds and planted as small kill plots. A well-maintained trail system runs throughout the property, allowing for quiet, stealthy access and easy game recovery. With strong deer and turkey sign across the entire tract and agricultural fields bordering the north and east sides, this property consistently draws and holds wildlife. Adjoining the CCCA makes this a truly unique and hard-to-find recreational property with exceptional hunting potential and long-term value.
