Situated in the scenic hills of Jersey County, Illinois, this expansive 158.9± acre recreational tract blends rugged natural beauty, wildlife‑rich habitat, and practical improvement potential. Just 24 miles from Alton and 63 miles from downtown St. Louis, it balances rural seclusion with easy access to nearby amenities—ideal for a weekend retreat, private hunting destination, or future homesite. One distinctive landscape feature includes exposed rock faces, gravel benches, and a large open pad that can serve as a staging/parking area or future build site. Beyond aesthetics, on‑site crushed limestone can be used to improve the internal trail system and establish durable interior roads or a homesite pad. Materials convey as‑is/where‑is with unknown quantity/gradation and no representation for DOT/spec work. There are no active extraction permits; any use that could require governmental approvals would require the buyer to obtain new permits/approvals at the buyer’s sole cost and risk. The internal trail system is well‑established across ridges and valleys, suitable for ATVs, side‑by‑sides, horseback riding, and hiking. Terrain diversity creates numerous natural funnels and pinch points—classic whitetail setups. During a recent scouting trip, frequent rut sign was observed along the central ridge, indicating consistent deer movement. Elevation changes, thick bedding cover, and open timber stands combine to hold and grow mature bucks. You’ll find a healthy mix of open hardwoods, dense bedding thickets, edge cover, and a small quarry pond that serves as a reliable water source for wildlife. Surrounding agriculture provides additional food resources and supports strong deer and turkey populations. Multiple flat or gently sloping areas are ideal for new food plots and potential homesite locations. The property features road frontage for easy access and visibility. With utilities believed available nearby (buyer to verify), future development for residential/recreational use becomes feasible with the aid of on‑site materials to establish interior roads. This tract offers premier hunting opportunities, extensive recreational access, and thoughtful improvement potential in close proximity to the Metro East area.
