Located in one of Monroe County’s most sought-after whitetail neighborhoods, this 39.70+/- acre west tract offers a great blend of timbered habitat, CRP income, natural travel corridors, and buildable site potential. With more tree fingers and timbered draws than the east side, this tract sets up especially well for hunting and deer movement. The west tract includes approximately 26 acres enrolled in CRP, paying $207.38 per acre, for an estimated annual income of $5,391.88 through 2032. CRP and FSA information is approximate and subject to verification by the Monroe County FSA office.

These features, combined with established CRP cover, make the tract hunt larger than its acreage suggests and provide multiple options for stand placement, entry routes, and habitat management. This area has a strong history of producing quality Monroe County whitetails. Harvest photos included in the listing are from a farm previously owned by the agent directly across the road, where several of the bucks pictured were harvested within approximately 800 yards of this property.
