Description
This 15-acre tract in Davis County offers the perfect blend of timber, open grass, and privacy, making it ideal for a smaller hunting property or a future acreage and homesite. With approximately 10 acres of timber and 5 acres of open grassland, it provides excellent wildlife habitat along with a good building location. The 15 acres are being split off a 40-acre tract and will be subject to a final survey prior to closing. The landowner is also open to negotiating hunting rights or potentially selling more tillable acres, providing an opportunity to expand this into a more complete hunting or investment property.
The property is conveniently located just 2.5 miles off State Highway 63, with a hard-surface road the entire way. It sits only a couple of miles north of Mark, 12 miles southwest of Bloomfield, 28 miles from Centerville, and just over 100 miles from Des Moines, offering both easy access and a sense of rural seclusion.
From a hunting perspective, this property checks all the boxes. The timber is a mix of hardwood and pasture timber and features a couple of ridges that provide good bedding for different times of the year and naturally funnel deer toward the neighboring crop field, which serves as the main food source for all the ground around and is a hub for wildlife activity in the area. With a bedding cover located on this property and the adjoining land to the south, deer movement through the timber is frequent and predictable. Surrounded by timber on all four sides, you can also expect to see plenty of cruising bucks during the rut, but also anticipate a high level of deer activity because the adjacent crop field is the main and only food source in the entire area, which is otherwise surrounded by trees and pasture. A small watering hole on the west side offers a reliable source for deer and other wildlife, while several small openings throughout the property make excellent food plot locations. The northern and eastern edges feature open grasses that could easily be converted into additional plots, and the power-line clearing along the west side adds another great setup for hunting or food plot opportunities.
One of the best features of this tract is its privacy. Located at the end of Harvest Avenue, a dead-end road with no through traffic due to a bridge closure just north of the property, this area sees very little activity. Numerous deer trails cross the road and enter this property from neighboring lands, showing how comfortable wildlife is moving through the area. Approximately 4.5 acres of open grassland near the road provides a good building location for a home or cabin, offering peaceful seclusion yet convenient proximity.
Whether you’re looking for a smaller hunting property, a peaceful building site, or a combination of both, this 15-acre tract offers excellent habitat, great convenience, and the kind of privacy that’s hard to find.
