Property Description The natural beauty of Mercer County is on full display in this piece of ground. Rolling hills of native grasses are casually split down the middle by a slow, meandering creek, dotted with trees and the occasional beaver pond which are very attractive to wood ducks. Trophy whitetails use this creek and adjacent cover as a natural corridor that connects CRP farms and timber all the way from the Edwards River to Camp Creek. The biggest typical whitetail I’ve ever seen on a trail camera came from an adjacent property on this creek, which I sold a couple years ago. The patch of hardwoods that overlooks the creek is a favorite roosting spot for a large flock of resident turkeys. This farm also boasts +/-96 acres of newly re-enrolled CRP which produces over $20K per year in income, and holds many wild pheasants and quail. The scenic views, good construction sites, pond building sites, and black top road frontage will make you think about where to build your future home! Mercer County School District. Located 3 miles north of Aledo, IL and 1 mile west of the Mercer County Airport. Address: 1724 120th Ave Aledo, IL 61231
