6798 E Il Route 72 Stillman Valley, IL 61084

Located in the heart of Ogle County, this 159 +/- acre property stretches almost a mile east to west between Stillman Valley and Byron. It combines pasture, timber, creek bottoms, hay ground, and a potential building site in one tract, a mix that is hard to find at this size. The main access comes off Route 72, where you reach the 80 x 62 open cattle barn that serves as the hub for the livestock operation. This ridge sits well above the year-round Stillman Creek, giving good elevation for buildings and infrastructure. Just east of the barn, a natural rise in the ground makes a strong potential building site with views across the surrounding landscape. Stillman Creek cuts back and forth through the property for over a mile. It provides a year-round water source for livestock, with potential for horses as well, and draws the deer, turkey, and waterfowl that frequent the farm. The east side is mostly open pasture and creek bottoms. The north side holds several acres of timber that adjoin neighboring timber ground, along with 10 acres of high-producing hay ground that could supply feed for cattle or horses. Moving west, the property continues with more pasture and timber as the creek carries on through. A second access point off Hales Corner Road gives you room to pull in trucks and trailers to load cattle, horses, or other livestock. New fencing runs along the western edge and is currently used for cattle. Fence lines are established across the property, and partially completed lines could be finished to create additional sections for rotational grazing. For hunters, the west end offers real room to work. Between the timber and the creek, 5+ acres of open ground could be converted to prairie, food plots, or other wildlife habitat, adding to the deer and turkey cover already in place. With multiple access points, water, fencing, a working barn, and a variety of cover types, this Ogle County farm suits a cattle or horse operation, a hunting and recreational property, or a buyer who wants to build on the land. The location also puts you within quick reach of US-20 and I-90.
