This 350.99- m/l property located in New Boston Township, Mercer County, Illinois, offers an outstanding combination of productive tillable ground, diverse timber, and premier recreational habitat. The farm has an excellent stand of hardwoods, an abundance of wildlife, and excellent income. There are nearly 265 acres of trees, including valuable hardwoods, that combined with a stream create a natural habitat for wildlife, including whitetail deer, turkey, and upland birds. Income is provided by approximately 85.52 tillable acres with an impressive average Illinois Productivity Index of 128.9. There are an additional 9 acres m/l that could be brought into production in the southeast corner of the farm. An excellent tenant is in place that would continue to lease long-term.
