    What's special

    Productive farmlandNatural coverWildlife-rich environment
    Bordering the legendary Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge, this exceptional Saginaw County 20A± acre property offers a rare opportunity to own land in one of Michigan's most recognized wildlife corridors. Known for producing and holding trophy-class whitetails, the refuge and its surrounding agricultural landscape have earned a legendary reputation among serious deer hunters who understand the value of hunting where mature bucks thrive. For decades, this remarkable area has also supported outstanding populations of wild turkey, waterfowl, and countless other wildlife species. Surrounded by thousands of acres of protected habitat, productive farmland, wetlands, and natural cover, opportunities to own private land that benefits directly from this incredible wildlife resource are exceptionally rare.Comprised primarily of approximately 20 acres of productive tillable ground, this property offers the perfect combination of investment value and unlimited recreational potential. Whether you're looking to expand your farming operation, generate annual cash rent, or develop a world-class hunting property from the ground up, this tract provides a blank canvas ready for your vision. Quality tillable land continues to be one of Michigan's strongest long-term investments, and properties with this type of location are becoming increasingly difficult to find.For the serious whitetail hunter, location is everything - and this property delivers. Large blocks of protected habitat within the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge provide the security mature bucks need to reach older age classes, while the surrounding agricultural fields supply an abundant food source throughout the growing season. This natural relationship creates consistent deer movement between bedding and feeding areas, making neighboring private properties highly desirable for hunters focused on mature deer.Unlike many hunting properties that have already been developed around someone else's strategy, this parcel offers the opportunity to build exactly what you envision. Establish destination food plots designed around prevailing winds, plant native warm-season grasses for secure bedding cover, install screening vegetation for undetected access, and create travel corridors that naturally funnel deer into carefully selected stand locations. Every improvement can be tailored specifically to your hunting style while adding long-term value to the land.The manageable size of this property also makes habitat improvements both practical and affordable. With thoughtful planning, twenty acres can become far more than a simple tillable field - it can become a destination stop for mature bucks traveling between the refuge and surrounding agricultural lands. Experienced land managers understand that while habitat can be created, an irreplaceable location cannot. Bordering one of Michigan's premier wildlife areas gives this property an advantage that few parcels can ever duplicate.The surrounding landscape is equally attractive for outdoor enthusiasts beyond deer season. The Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge has long been recognized as one of the Midwest's premier destinations for migrating waterfowl, while healthy populations of wild turkey and other game species provide year-round recreational opportunities. Owning property in this wildlife-rich environment means enjoying every season that Michigan has to offer.From an investment perspective, this property offers multiple sources of value. Continue farming the acreage or lease it to a local producer for annual income while implementing habitat improvements over time. As your hunting property evolves, you'll continue benefiting from the stability of productive farmland combined with the increasing demand for recreational properties located in premier hunting areas.Whether you're an investor seeking quality tillable acreage, a farmer looking to expand your operation, or a passionate deer hunter dreaming of building your own trophy whitetail farm from the ground up, this Saginaw County property deserves your attention. Opportunities to own productive farmland bordering the legendary Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge are exceptionally rare. Bring your vision, implement your management plan, and create a property that can provide agricultural income, outstanding hunting opportunities, and lasting memories for generations to come.
