Here sits 35.57+/- acres of mostly wooded recreational land just 20 minutes north of Edwardsville, IL. Sitting off Renken Road and just east of Prairietown, a shared, private lane provides easy access to all area amenities, but also provides the rural setting you are looking for. Mature timber makes up roughly 32 of the acres, providing good wildlife habitat, and also potential income from a good select harvest. With some work, a nice home site could be created on the higher elevation to give a view of the balance of the acreage. While the roughly 3.5 acres of tillable has not been planted the last few years, it would provide ample opportunity for any future food plots or plantings of your choosing. Cleared trails wander the entire property making easy 4 wheeler or side by side access to all parts of the farm. If you are looking for a quiet setting, whether it be for hunting, or just enjoying some quality family time away from the city, you will want to have a look at this property!
