Description
Here’s your opportunity to own a diverse Southwest Iowa property offering income-producing acres, quality hunting habitat, and nearly endless recreational possibilities. With a combination of open ground, productive row-crop acres, hardwood timber, thick wildlife cover, pasture, ponds, and seclusion, this farm offers an impressive balance of features and plenty of potential for the next owner.
The property features two points of access, providing multiple options for navigating the farm, whether working with livestock, farming, enjoying the property recreationally, or strategically accessing hunting locations. An established trail network provides convenient access throughout much of the farm. Portions of the pasture are surrounded by quality fencing and supported by established water systems, making it ideal for your livestock operation. Two larger ponds are positioned within the property's main drainage, providing additional water sources for livestock and wildlife while creating a great place to fish or enjoy an afternoon on the water with family.
The southern portion of the property contains the majority of the established tillable acres. Approximately 26.42± acres are currently in soybean production and carry an average CSR2 of 69. These productive acres are positioned primarily along the higher elevations of the farm, with an established road system running around portions of the fields. In addition to their income potential, these acres could provide an excellent opportunity to strategically leave standing grain or incorporate destination food plots for late-season hunting.
Hardwood timbered draws extend throughout the property, creating quality habitat for both whitetail deer and wild turkey. Much of the heavier cover is concentrated along the lower elevations, while the surrounding ridges and open ground provide numerous opportunities to strategically develop food plots, bedding areas, and hunting setups. The topography also creates opportunities for quiet access into different portions of the farm without disturbing wildlife.
Located in an area known for producing quality whitetails and connected to a significant amount of surrounding timber, this property has the ingredients to be an outstanding hunting farm. Additional food sources and habitat improvements could further enhance its ability to attract and hold deer throughout the year. Perhaps most importantly, the overall size and diversity of the property give an owner the ability to truly manage the habitat, deer herd, and age structure with the goal of consistently holding mature whitetails.
Beyond the hunting opportunities, the farm offers plenty of additional recreational possibilities. Horseback riding or ATV trail rides through the scenic Loess Hills, fishing, boating, camping, snowmobiling, hiking, and simply enjoying the outdoors can all be accomplished right here. Its location within a reasonable drive of the Omaha/Council Bluffs metro provides an excellent balance between privacy and seclusion while remaining convenient to nearby amenities.
