TRACT DESCRIPTIONS
Tract 1: 20.7± ac of nearly 100% tillable farmland comprised of Tracy Sandy loam soils. This tract contains frontage on both Pumping Station Rd and N 800 E. This production oriented tract would serve as a great add on to an existing farming operation!
Tract 2: 20.8± ac of primarily tillable land, and also contains woods and a marsh on the southeast side of the tract. This tract is a great fit if you are looking for a hunting property that produces income from cash rent. Many turkey have been spotted on this tract during the prepping of marketing materials.
Tract 3: 29± ac that is the most recreationally oriented of the tracts offered. The majority of this property is wooded and contains a marsh in the center and northeast side of the woods. Check out the photos for evidence of wildlife moving through these woods! Consider the potential build site opportunities on tracts 1-3 given the topographic layouts and scenery!
Tract 4: 54.7± ac that is diverse in its makeup containing majority cropland acres, woods, and two marshes. This property is unique in the seclusion that it offers on the east side. It will be tough to find a better whitetail setup on this size of acreage than this given the seclusion, habitat, and food source. If you are looking for a property to produce income or farm yourself as well as hunt, this tract deserves some serious attention!
