    Productive farmlandWater featuresMature timberScenic creek corridorEstablished trail systems
    Whether you're looking for an income-producing farm, a premier hunting property, or a long-term land investment, this exceptional 239A± acre mixed-use farm offers a rare combination of productive farmland, mature timber, water features, and outstanding recreational opportunities that are seldom found in one property. Large contiguous tracts of this size rarely become available in highly desirable Lee County, Illinois, making this an exceptional opportunity for investors, hunters, farmers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Located just east of Amboy, this diverse property offers approximately 135A± acres of productive row crop ground that provides immediate annual income while preserving excellent long-term investment potential. Conveniently positioned with quick access to Interstate 39 and Interstate 88, the farm offers easy accessibility from northern Illinois and the Chicago metropolitan area, making it an ideal destination for weekend recreation while maintaining the privacy and rural setting buyers seek. The farm is divided into several sections along Inlet Road, creating multiple access points that allow for efficient management of both agricultural operations and recreational activities. The northeastern portion of the property includes approximately 20 acres of productive tillable ground complemented by mature timber and a scenic creek corridor that connects to the balance of the farm. This natural travel corridor enhances wildlife movement throughout the property while adding diversity to the landscape and strengthening its recreational appeal. The southern entrance serves as the primary access point and features an established trail system extending along the timber edge. This area offers outstanding recreational opportunities, with expansive agricultural fields bordered by mature hardwoods and numerous transition zones that naturally attract wildlife. Small openings within the timber present ideal locations for strategically placed food plots, elevated blinds, or additional habitat improvements. Multiple established trails weave throughout the woods, providing convenient access to hunting locations while minimizing disturbance to wildlife. Several small ponds scattered throughout this portion of the property provide dependable water sources that support deer, turkey, and other wildlife throughout the year. Continuing west, the large agricultural fields wrap around neighboring Leake Lake, which is not included with the property but contributes significantly to the surrounding landscape, wildlife habitat, and overall scenic character. Early successional forest, creek corridors, and natural edge habitat connect this section with the northern portion of the farm, creating exceptional travel routes and bedding cover for whitetail deer and wild turkey. As the property transitions farther west, expansive tillable fields give way to smaller agricultural pockets surrounded by mature timber and native habitat. This natural progression creates additional opportunities for habitat enhancement, recreational management, and strategic hunting improvements. The western portion of the farm features approximately 25 acres of mature hardwood timber accessed by an established trail system. Beyond the hardwoods lies a secluded 8A± acre agricultural field tucked within the timber, creating an ideal destination food source and an outstanding location for hunting or future habitat development. Surrounded by productive agriculture, mature timber, ponds, creek systems, and nearby lakes, the farm supports a healthy population of whitetail deer, wild turkey, and numerous other native wildlife species. The combination of quality tillable acreage, diverse habitat, natural water sources, and extensive edge creates an exceptional balance that appeals to both serious hunters and long-term landowners. Beyond its recreational value, the property represents an outstanding investment opportunity. Approximately 135A± acres of productive cropland provide dependable annual income while the property's diversity, accessibility, and limited availability of large contiguous tracts in Lee County support strong long-term appreciation potential. As quality recreational farms continue to be in high demand throughout northern Illinois, opportunities to acquire a property of this size and caliber have become increasingly uncommon. In addition to its agricultural and recreational appeal, this area of Lee County attracts seasonal visitors traveling to nearby parks, public hunting areas, and outdoor recreation destinations. Continued interest in outdoor recreation throughout the region may also present future development or investment opportunities, subject to applicable zoning and local regulations. Whether your objective is generating annual farm income, developing a premier hunting property, expanding your investment portfolio, or creating a legacy farm for future generations, this remarkable property offers an exceptional combination of productive agriculture, diverse wildlife habitat, recreational opportunities, and long-term investment value. Properties offering this blend of productive tillable acreage, mature timber, established trail systems, water features, multiple access points, and convenient accessibility rarely become available. This 239A± acre Lee County farm presents a unique opportunity to own a truly versatile piece of northern Illinois land capable of producing income while delivering outstanding year-round recreational enjoyment and lasting ownership value.
