This ideal hunting and recreational property consisting of 31+/- acres is conveniently located 3 miles W/SW of Murphysboro IL. These smaller tracts of land are hard to come by. Property consists of mostly rolling hills of timber with a few acres of open grassland. It is a good looking piece of property that supports some excellent cover for deer and turkey. There are a few trails through the timber and more can be added for ATV recreation and easier access for hunting blinds. The open grass areas that were once used as cattle pasture offer a great area for a hunting cabin to be built. An access is through a 40-ft easement that will be established and is a short distance through the seller's property that they are retaining. All bordering properties are timber, and there are 600 acres of Shawnee Forest land ½ mile east from this property. There are 2 creeks that meander through the property. It is a scenic tract of land that definitely is in the heart of some good deer and turkey hunting.
