148 Acres of Improved Recreational Land & Farm for Sale in Barry, Illinois

Take one look at this property and you will instantly be intrigued by the layout and opportunity this property has to offer. The property is located between Barry and Kinderhook on the north side of Highway 106 about a half mile. Access into the farm is second to none with east access from county road 1400 and west access from 2053 N. Not only does the farm offer two-sided access, but an internal trail allows easy access through the entire farm. There are 59.98 acres enrolled in CRP through September 2023, which the sellers are re-enrolling. Coming in from the west side of the farm you will find a bedding thicket on the NW corner along with an open ridge top that would make a great kill plot location. Head east down the trail through some scattered trees and you will come into one of three main pockets of timber on the farm. This block, like the other blocks, is made up of mature timber, creeks, and rolling topography. There are worn-out trails running through this timber block with several great stand locations centered around a few select pinch points. Head further east to the central timber block, and you will see this part of the farm is the workhorse of the farm when it comes to hunting. This section has CRP on the east and west sides, great connecting habitat to the south, and a dynamite funnel/pinch point on the north side. This block of timber flows great into the adjoining block of timber to the north as well. The middle of the farm can be accessed from either side depending on wind direction, with several great food plot locations on either side of the middle block of timber. The eastern side of the farm has rolling topography with a valley of scattered cedars. There is a small pond on the southeastern part of the farm as well. Access comes in from the east off 1400 E, which is a dead-end road with little to no traffic. Two-sided access allows you easy stand access and property maintenance. The northeast section of the farm acts as its own stand-alone section with a food plot location, thick bedding cover, and a small section of timber as well as good connecting habitat to the west. There is also an 1880 stone/brick home located along the road that could be fixed up and used as a hunting camp. This property is a must-see and one that sets up very well for hunting as well as providing a return on your investment.
