Located directly adjacent to the north boundary of Argyle Lake State Park, this 52± acre McDonough County farm offers a rare opportunity to own private land bordering over 1,700 acres of protected forest and recreation. The park serves as a natural wildlife sanctuary, helping support a strong deer population and excellent hunting potential in the surrounding area. The farm itself is made up primarily of mature hardwood timber, with a year-round creek winding through the center and predominantly south-facing slopes — ideal terrain for whitetail bedding and movement. Approximately 12+ acres of row crop ground (PI 103) currently provides income and food sources, while additional acres offer opportunities for expansion, food plots, pasture, or prairie habitat improvements.A recently dredged ¾-acre pond, stocked with large channel catfish, creates a peaceful setting and a favorite gathering spot on the property. With electrical service available and multiple elevated build sites overlooking the timber and valley below, this farm is equally suited for a forever home, weekend retreat, or recreational getaway.Conveniently located just 7 miles west of Macomb and within the Macomb Community School District, this property combines seclusion, recreation, income, and long-term enjoyment in one exceptional setting.
