Home Details for 0 Wheeler Road

Sitting in northern Winnebago County just south of the Illinois and Wisconsin border, this property offers an excellent mix of location, habitat, and recreational opportunity. The property sits off Wheeler Road with a convenient field entrance that opens into a private area tucked away from the road. This space is framed by exposed limestone walls, creating a unique and scenic setting that could easily serve as a parking area, campsite, or a firepit gathering spot overlooking the surrounding rolling agricultural ground. It is the kind of natural feature that gives this property character and sets the stage for a variety of uses. The interior of the farm features approximately 11 acres of open ground bordered by successional growth, which blends seamlessly into the timber that runs along the northern edge, through the center, and along the eastern boundary. The wooded portion provides a diverse mix of cover and habitat with natural pockets throughout that could be strategically opened for food plots, wildlife openings, or recreational use. The southeastern corner stands out as an ideal location for a destination plot, positioned perfectly between the surrounding agriculture to the east and the Sugar River corridor less than a mile away. This proximity to the Sugar River and the Avon Bottoms State Ground only adds to the property's appeal, reinforcing the quality of the area's habitat. The farm is surrounded in all directions by a strong mix of deer habitat including timber, river bottoms, agriculture, and forest preserves. For the whitetail or turkey hunter, this property sets up well as a manageable hunting tract with big potential. For someone seeking a private recreational retreat or the chance to shape their own land, it provides the right combination of open ground, timber, and natural features. Whether you are looking to hunt, camp, or simply own land in a highly desirable part of northern Illinois, this property offers a rare chance to do it all in one well-rounded package.
