Description
This is an unbelievable opportunity to purchase a large, income-producing recreational farm in a county where land rarely becomes available. Located approximately 2.5 miles north of Penfield and just south of County Road 3200 North, this farm offers both strong investment potential and exceptional recreational value. There are currently three Conservation Reserve Program Contracts (CRP), generating an annual income of $19,590. A mowed trail system, roughly 2.5 miles in length, surrounds the CRP fields, providing excellent access for hunting and recreation.
The Middle Fork of the Vermilion River meanders along the entire western boundary, offering a consistent water source for wildlife and serving as a highly effective travel corridor for whitetail deer during the rut. Between the river and the CRP lies a wide buffer of mature timber—an area heavily used by deer and offering multiple prime ambush locations. Additional mature tree lines and narrow fencerows run throughout the property, creating a variety of stand sites and enhancing its ability to hold and funnel wildlife. This farm serves as the central hub for numerous natural funnels that converge within it, making it an ideal rut hunting property.
The combination of habitat features, including quality bedding, nesting areas, and dense security cover, makes this property a haven for whitetails and upland birds. The sellers have recently started to see and hear pheasants more frequently, particularly during the early mornings and evenings. Surrounded by agriculture on three sides, the property benefits from neighboring food sources that complement its outstanding cover and water access.
Please note, the house and private driveway at the north end of the property are not included in this sale. The current owner resides there and is not interested in selling the home or any additional land. Access to the offered acreage is marked in red and black. While the entry may require some clearing, it offers a great opportunity for a parking area or potential cabin site in the heart of the property.
If you're looking for a high-quality recreational property with income, water, timber, and a proven track record of holding mature deer, this farm checks every box.
