44.78 Acres +/- located just south of Hanover that offers a little bit of everything! Surrounded by tall wooded bluffs, this property sits along the scenic and winding Apple River valley and has a nice mixture of tall White Pine plantings, hardwood ridges, open ground for habitat and food plot projects, and river bottom timber. Over 1/4 mile of Apple River frontage creates the West boundary of the property and creates some natural pinch point to catch wildlife traveling the river as well as fishing and waterfowl opportunities. Approximately 6 acres of open field ground are currently being cut and baled for hay, but could be a great build site or a blank slate for more habitat projects and food plots. In the center of the property is a remnant of a past pond/wetland that could be restored to become a focal point of the property. This property has the convenience to access from three sides of the property, yet maintained privacy with tree plantings following nearly all of the perimeter. This property is adjacent to the Wapello Land and Water Reserve to the north and nearby to some of the most strictly managed privately owned whitetail properties in all of Jo Daviess County-meaning a truly world class whitetail could show up any given year. Beyond the hunting potential, the property offer some great build sites to overlook the Apple River while sitting well above the flood plain.
