Property details

About 8693 Eakin Grove Church Rd

This property has 22+/- acres of tillable farm land which is currently being farmed on a crop share with a tenant farmer. The Big Muddy river runs through the western side of the property which gives the property owner the opportunity to hunt waterfowl and fish. With tillable farm land serving as a large food source during all times of the hunting season, there is a large deer and turkey population that call this property home. There are roughly 18 acres that sit on the west side of the river which have been known to be some of the best deer hunting on the property. An active railroad track makes the north border, which is beneficial because it prevents hunters from sitting on the property line. While this is an active track, it is only used a few times a month. At the far east side of the property there are roughly 5.50 acres that are used as a hunting camp. There is a 30x45 shed which has a 17x30 finished area as a living space. The shed features a wrap around porch on three sides which makes for a great place to hang out and take in the views that this property offers. On the south side of the shed there is a full RV hookup with a 30 &50 amp plug, which makes it very easy to pull an RV up and set up very quickly. On the northeast corner sits an old home site which has a lot of potential for a new owner to build if they desire.
