County Rd 450N , Toledo, IL 62468(Cumberland County)

Nestled between Toledo and Jewett and located just south of County Road 450 North, this exceptional property offers a rare combination of natural beauty, mature timber, and prime wildlife habitat. Access is shared with the neighboring parcel to the west, with both landowners owning 50% of the designated access area. As you enter from the northwest corner, you’ll immediately notice the dense cover and striking presence of old-growth pines. This area holds a special place in the current owner’s heart, having served as the focal point for family gatherings over the years. Though it has grown up with time, the towering pines still dominate the landscape and speak to the property's long history. Moving through the property, it opens into expansive stands of mature hardwoods. Large white oaks and other valuable timber species cover the hillsides, gradually sloping southward into thick creek bottoms. This transitional terrain features a network of well-worn deer trails, showcasing its use as a natural wildlife corridor. The lower elevations are home to impressive groves of walnut and cottonwood trees, with two creeks converging in the southeast corner to form an ideal natural funnel for whitetail movement. Just south of this junction lies a prominent ridge in the southwest section of the land. Covered in old-growth white oaks, this ridge offers breathtaking views of the bottoms below and has become a hotspot for both deer and turkey, especially during the fall acorn drop. Surrounding the property are several woodlots and additional creeks that connect with the parcel, enhancing its effectiveness as a rut funnel. Nearby agriculture fields and the larger Cottonwood Creek to the southeast further support a strong game presence throughout the year. With its mix of terrain, timber value, and ideal wildlife habitat, this property offers both recreational and investment potential. Additionally, its size qualifies it for landowner hunting tags.
