The Bentzinger farm which contains 80.5 acres is located approximately 10 miles south of Hamilton, IL at 895E CR 350, Sutter, IL.

The farm is legally described as the SE1/4 of the SE1/4 of Sec. 17 and the SW1/4 of the SW1/4 of Sec. 16, along with 1 rod of even width off the east side of the NE1/4 of the SE1/4 of Section 17,all in Walker Township, Hancock County, IL.

This property is very secluded being situated at the end of a 1/4 mile road south of the Blacktop. This road is privately owned and will be deeded along with the farm. FSA figures indicate 36 acres tillable with an additional 10 acres of open pasture. The balance of the farm is mostly wooded with a pond, and with excellent recreational value including deer, turkey and small game hunting. Improvements include a 30'x78' machine shed, an older farm house which has been unoccupied for several years and a few other farm buildings.

Whether you're looking for a small farm, a place to build with Dallas Rural Water or just a great place in the country to relax with privacy, you need to take a look. Prospective buyers have permission to inspect this farm by walking, ATV or, ground conditions permitting, by vehicle.
