0 Shattuck Rd, Belvidere, IL 61008

Description

Located in southeastern Boone County east of Belvidere, this 37.88 +/- acre property offers a mix of timber, open ground, creek, pond, and wetland that is uncommon to find this close to the Chicagoland area. It is set up as a turnkey recreational farm, with the camp, equipment, and trail system already in place. Access is by a long lane off Shattuck Road that runs nearly 1,000 feet to the southern edge of the property. A stunning oak greets you as you enter the timber. The camping area sits on a ridge overlooking the property and outside of the flood zone. This open area is home to a 36-foot 2018 Keystone Sprinter camper and an outbuilding. The outbuilding is loaded with everything needed to take care of the property. An extensive trail system with a stone base runs around the entire property and allows access in all weather conditions. On the eastern side, a 3-acre opening includes a 100-yard rifle range and room for food plots and habitat projects, while the surrounding willows provide security for wildlife. Adjacent to this opening is a pond that connects to a wetland with a duck blind, a good setup for waterfowl hunting close to the creek. Coon Creek flows along the northern edge of the property and creates a diverse mix of habitat. Along the creek, there are several open areas for additional food plots, all connected by the trail system. On the northwestern edge, an elevated box blind sits off the timber and a food plot. The property is close to stores and restaurants and has quick access to I-90. Included with the sale are a 2015 John Deere 2032 tractor with cutter and tiller, a 2018 Polaris Sportsman, a 2016 Polaris Ranger, a 2026 Cub Cadet zero-turn mower, and a 2020 Bravo trailer full of decoys.
