Excellent hunting retreat or permanent residence! This property is ideal for anyone that frequently comes to Southern Illinois to chase giant whitetails or as a permanent residence for an avid outdoorsman. The 700 sq. ft. cedar cabin was built in 2008, sits on a concrete slab and has a covered front porch. It has water, septic, electric, full kitchen, bath, a great room and a large finished attic area that could easily be a bedroom. There are several smaller cottage type buildings on the property that could be refinished for guest sleeping quarters or left as additional storage space. The layout of the land is steep hardwood ridges and hollows. A main trail runs from the cabin up to the north end of the property where it adjoins the Shawnee National Forest offering thousands of additional acres to hunt. There are lots of crop fields adjoining the property across Morgan School Road to the south. With the crops to the south, this puts the property right in the middle of the transition zone from bed to feed. With several heavy trails running the main ridge down toward the crop fields, this is an ideal ambush site to catch deer coming from the deep hardwood ridges. If you’re looking for a get-away with great hunting or a permanent residence in the heart of big deer country, give us a call today and schedule your private tour!
