Indian Kitchen Rd Lot Wp001, Eddyville, IL 62928

Located in Pope County, Illinois, this combination investment and hunting tract offers a strong mix of productive tillable acreage, diverse wildlife habitat, build site potential, and direct adjacency to the Shawnee National Forest. With approximately 53A± tillable acres currently generating annual income, the property provides an agricultural component while maintaining the habitat diversity and recreational features needed for a quality Southern Illinois hunting property. Approximately 53A± acres are tillable and planted in corn for the 2026 growing season. The tillable acreage currently generates $3,500 annually, providing established income from the agricultural portion of the farm. The gently rolling topography and layout of the fields create miles of field edge, adding significant transition habitat throughout the property. The extensive field edge is particularly beneficial from a hunting standpoint. Several pockets of timber are scattered throughout the tract, creating natural connections between larger blocks of cover and the agricultural acreage. These timbered areas include a mixture of softwoods and mast-producing hardwoods, while areas of dense security cover provide valuable bedding habitat for whitetails. The combination of row crops, timber pockets, thick cover, and a small pond creates a diverse habitat layout for Deer and Turkey. There are also ideal locations for establishing food plots, allowing a future owner to further enhance the existing habitat and strategically influence wildlife movement across the property. Another major feature is the property's adjacency to the Shawnee National Forest along its eastern boundary. Beyond the direct National Forest frontage, an extensive amount of additional Shawnee National Forest acreage is located nearby, placing the farm within a large landscape of timbered habitat and public recreational land. The property also offers excellent build site potential for a future country home, hunting cabin, or recreational basecamp. Electric and fiber internet are available along the road frontage, providing important infrastructure for future improvements. Approximately 1,500 feet of road frontage and an established entry point provide convenient access to the property. The location adds another dimension to the tract. Indian Kitchen Trailhead and the River to River Trail are nearby, along with short-term rental properties and Shotgun Eddy's restaurant. These nearby destinations complement the property's proximity to the Shawnee National Forest and the many recreational opportunities found throughout Pope County. With income-producing tillable acreage, extensive field edge, timber, security cover, water, build site potential, and direct Shawnee National Forest adjacency, this property offers a versatile combination of investment and recreational features in Southern Illinois.
