Located in the heart of Ogle County just north of Stillman Valley, Illinois, this 10-acre property combines the opportunity for a custom home site with an established whitetail deer and turkey hunting setup. Buyers searching for Ogle County land for sale, Illinois hunting land, or a smaller buildable recreational property near Stillman Valley, this tract offers a well-rounded combination of residential potential and wildlife habitat. Access comes from Skinner Road along the south side of the property. The first access option is a deeded easement along an existing blacktop driveway. A second designated lane currently runs through timber, providing the opportunity for another privately owned entrance into the property. Both access options enter from the south and lead toward a newly establi shed clearing that provides a potential building site. The contour surrounding the clearing may lend itself to a lower-level walkout design, depending on final site planning, soil conditions, permitting, and construction requirements. The property is zoned to build, allowing a future owner to further evaluate the site for a custom residence while retaining much of the wooded acreage for hunting, recreation, and wildlife habitat. From the clearing, an established trail system travels along the eastern side of the property and through a diverse stand of hardwood timber. Oaks, walnuts, and cherry trees are found throughout the wooded acreage. Pockets of native flowers and grasses add another layer of diversity to the property and complement the existing timber and wildlife cover. The internal trail system leads toward an easement strip along the northern edge of the property where Big Tine Borderline screening grass has been established. The screening grass provides visual cover and helps create an opportunity for concealed access from the eastern edge of the property to a well positioned blind. Extensive habitat work has already been completed with a focus on improving the deer and turkey hunting opportunities available on the property. Timber stand improvement work has been used to develop bedding habitat and security cover within the timber. This allows portions of the property to provide more than travel cover by giving deer additional reasons to spend time within the tract. One of the primary features of the northern section is an approximately one-acre interior food plot planted in brassicas and oats. The food plot provides a concentrated food source surrounded by timber and cover. The plot area has also been developed with a Hardtop hunting blind, established watering hole, and licking stick, creating a defined hunting location within the interior of the property. The surrounding neighborhood contains large blocks of hardwood timber mixed with rolling agricultural ground, providing additional habitat beyond the boundaries of the 10-acre parcel. This combination of timber and agricultural acreage is characteristic of productive whitetail habitat in northern Illinois. Known for deer management practices and has produced quality whitetails in the past. The property's position within this larger habitat system is important because a 10-acre tract can benefit considerably from neighboring timber, agricultural food sources, and additional cover. The existing food plot, watering hole, bedding improvements, and screening cover give a future owner the ability to continue managing the property as part of that larger landscape. The property's location north of Stillman Valley also provides convenient access to surrounding communities and the Rockford area. Interstate 90 is within convenient driving distance, providing regional access for commuting, employment, shopping, and services. The property is located within the popular Stillman Valley School District.
