Property Description
Ever dreamed of owning your own private lake? This exceptional 58.87 acre recreational property on the southeast edge of Canton, Illinois, offers a rare opportunity to own two private lakes, outstanding hunting, excellent fishing, and income potential. The centerpiece of the property is an impressive 34.6 acre lake, complemented by a second 1.45 acre lake. The larger lake has been carefully managed for trophy largemouth bass and is also home to crappie, bluegill, catfish, walleye, and tiger muskie, providing outstanding fishing opportunities year-round. A boat launch on the northeast corner makes it easy to get out on the water. Waterfowl and upland hunting are equally impressive. The property offers excellent duck, goose, and dove hunting, complete with a steel goose pit already in place. The current owner has historically leased the hunting rights for $6,000 annually and the approximately 16.20 acres of tillable farmland for an additional $3,500 per year, demonstrating the property's income-producing potential. Those leases are not in place this year, as the owner has chosen to enjoy the property personally. Approximately 5.0 acres on the northeast corner offer an outstanding potential homesite with lake views, making this an ideal location to build a dream home, weekend retreat, or family getaway. The property is accessed through a single private entrance, adding to its privacy and exclusivity. Properties of this size featuring a private lake, quality hunting, exceptional fishing, income potential, and a premier building site rarely become available. Whether you're looking for a recreational retreat, an investment, or the perfect place to build overlooking your own private lake, this property deserves your attention.
