Property Description

The Shamrock Valley Farm is an excellent property that we are excited to offer to the public. Located next to HWY 13, this well-balanced farm contains a mix of both cropland and timber. The combination of productive soil along with wooded acres has proven to be the perfect environment to produce world class whitetail with numerous deer harvested scoring over 175in. It is one thing to say that a farm has potential, but another to show the impressive proof of history (see photos). This makes sense with Clayton County being ranked in the Top 20 Boone and Crockett counties in the US. Beyond recreation the farm also contains 408.86 FSA cropland acres and has been well managed over the years. The owner has carefully monitored nutrient levels and has installed tile and terraces throughout. Additionally, the farm contains two homes, one with over 5,500 sq. ft. and remodeled in 2009. Other improvements include two machine shops, one that is already temperature controlled. Make sure to inspect this legacy farm whether you are looking to acquire productive tillable acres, a homestead, or obtain some of the finest hunting land in the state.
