Wayne County
Diverse Farm With Great Habitat, Income And Fishing
130 CR 900 N Bluford, IL 62814
Description
PRICE REDUCED!! Entering this farm from the hardtop road corner you find a long driveway leading to the farmhouse. The driveway sides and homestead area have several giant oak trees providing shade and a beautiful setting. The house is 1550 sq ft +/- with 3 beds and 1 bath. There are hardwood floors throughout the house and with some work, this would make a great hunting camp or residence depending on your desire. The house has an attached garage and there is a 60 x 70 pole barn and a portable style shed on the homestead for ample storage. Leaving the homestead heading south at the end of a long tree row you find a stocked pond nestled in between tillable fields. The pond is fishable all the way around and while I was there I saw several fish and countless spawning beds. The seller also made mention of 5 lb+ bass being caught in this pond. Lilly pads hugged the north and south ends providing great cover for fish and ducks. This pond will provide great relaxation and family memories. In any direction east, west, south, of the pond, it won’t take you long to see the deer and turkey potential on this farm. The east section of the farm has hidden tillable fields tucked in amongst the timber. These are great food plot options, including one field that is not being farmed currently, so having it in a food plot doesn’t take away from the income. There are several small open areas in the back timber and on field edge that could be food plots as well. The timber in this area is rolling with old logging roads and good cover. I jumped several deer in this area while walking it and it was easy to see why they were there - seclusion. The southern and western areas of the farm are riddled with deer and turkey sign. These areas are expired tree programs with a great mix of timber, tall grass, and wet weather creeks. Walking through this habitat it’s hard not to see the sign. Trails are beat into the ground, scrapes are visible, and tracks are all over. To the west, southwest, southeast, and east of this area are all crop fields, making this the prime bedding and travel are for the neighborhood. One look at the aerial and its easy to see this farm is the center of the surrounding area for wildlife. If you’re looking to buy a farm this size, I’d highly suggest viewing this one sooner than later.
