This property is being offered in two 320 acre tracts each for $560,000. Rare opportunity to own part of a contiguous property that guarantees a return on investment through an income-producing Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and also offers endless opportunity for developing a hunting lodge or dream home, or just preserving this beautiful prairie landscape. Located just 5 miles from Grand Forks International Airport, this land has great accessibility no matter where you are from and is located close to 7 waterfowl production areas. For Grand Forks residents, you could leave work at five and be in your stand ten minutes later for an evening sit. For those looking for a hunting destination, the city of Grand Forks offers all amenities desired for a hunting trip or getaway. The property has multiple areas that are buildable. RV or camper owners could pour a pad and have electrical and water hookups installed. Even during a wet spring, the gravel road was in great condition with hardly any traffic. Every time I have visited the property, the air is filled with the sounds of cackling pheasants, roosting waterfowl, and songbirds. This would be excellent habitat for a visionary to operate a game reserve or use it as a personal getaway. The land would be easily divided amongst a group of four to ensure four annual whitetail gratis tags.
