A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity awaits hunting enthusiasts, outdoor lovers, and those seeking an exceptional country retreat! Offered publicly for sale for the first time in years, this remarkable 29.12 +/- acre property has been maintained as a private hunting preserve, creating outstanding wildlife habitat just approximately 1/4 mile from Lake Hillsboro. Now, the next owner has the rare opportunity to own a truly exceptional recreational property. Whether you're searching for a private hunting preserve, weekend getaway, full-time residence, or investment opportunity, the possibilities are endless. The property features a brick ranch offering approximately 1,600 +/- square feet with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an inviting open floor plan designed for comfortable living and entertaining . A 24' x 35' garage includes an additional kitchen and bathroom, making it the perfect gathering place after a day outdoors. Additional improvements include a 36' x 50' outbuilding with electric and water, a 20' x 17' open-faced equipment storage building with dog kennel, and a 7' x 7' building formerly used for clay trap shooting that could easily be repurposed as a hunting blind, wildlife observation shelter, or animal shelter. Outdoor amenities are equally impressive.
