Old Post Road, Ot #WP001 Knoxville, IL 61448 – Knox | View on Google Maps
Description
This is a great opportunity to purchase a property on the outskirts of Knoxville that offers deer and turkey hunting, income from tillable acres, and a potential building site for your dream home at the end of a long driveway. This property is located just west of Knoxville, off Old Post Road. As you pull into the property, you will see one of several alfalfa fields along the north side of the driveway. The driveway has recently been enhanced with a solid rock base, making the property accessible in any weather condition. As you head down the driveway and up to the top of the hill, you come to 35 acres of tillable farm ground, currently planted to soybeans, rented for $200/acre or $7,000 annually. There are 12 additional acres planted to alfalfa that are being rented for $150/acre or $1,650 annually, bringing the total annual farm income to $8,650. The alfalfa produces income and serves as a high-quality food plot that requires little to no maintenance on the landowner's part and attracts a significant amount of deer. The property has several pockets of thick timber that serve as primary bedding cover, most with an alfalfa field next to them. This property is gently rolling, and there are several great locations for a potential pond. What makes this property truly unique is its close proximity to Knoxville, making it a great location to build a home, yet it has that rural feel at the end of a dead-end driveway. If you are in the market for a quality farm with a little bit of everything to offer, you won't want to miss this opportunity. Give Land Specialists Tyler Sellens or Brent Reneau a call today for more information or to schedule a private showing.
