Discover this extraordinary hunting property featuring two contiguous parcels, zoned R-1 (9.89A) and AG-1 (0.50A - non tillable), offering a prime hunting and outdoor recreational opportunity in a highly sought-after location in NW Illinois. The property includes a 14x28 hunting cabin with HVAC, a 14x28 storage shed, and a large patio with a firepit.

Access trails have been maintained throughout the timber, allowing for easy movement and access to key hunting areas across the property. The land boasts a mixture of oak, locust, and cherry trees.

Elkhorn Creek runs through the property, extending into the Elkhorn Creek Biodiversity Preserve which sits just to the NE, creating a natural corridor for wildlife movement throughout the property. Multiple bedding areas exist on the property and adjacent fields and preserve, making this property an ideal habitat for big game. A recorded access easement off Freeport Rd provides property access. A septic field site has been determined, and a private well and septic system can be installed for those looking to expand the living accommodations. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a turnkey hunting retreat with all the essential amenities for the serious outdoorsman. Shown by appointment only to pre-qualified buyers. No entry without a scheduled appointment.
