Property Description (SOLD)-This farm is a time capsule! The land is pristine and most of it does not look like it has been touched in generations. Strong deer and turkey sign! The western half is loaded with mature walnut, oak, cherry and other marketable hardwoods. Seller reports that no logging has been done to their knowledge in a considerable time. The topography consists of rolling hills on the east and west sides, with a meandering, rock-bottom creek flowing more or less down the middle. There are not currently any interior roads, but by cutting timber, these could be created, where you please, to maximize access for land management and hunting. It’s essentially a blank slate, or perhaps a very beautiful canvas. The south end of the farm just touches Copperas Creek, which is a great wildlife corridor. In the southeast corner of the farm lies one of the best natural saddle pinch points I’ve ever seen. Three separate tillable fields run into this farm, totaling ~10.5 FSA tillable acres, which could be rented to neighboring farmers, used for food plotting, or perhaps eventually enrolled in CRP. This farm is located 3.25 miles southwest of Illinois City, IL or about 25 miles west of downtown Quad Cities.
