Located in Section 4 of Thompson Township, south of Guthrie Center, Iowa, and just two miles west of Highway 25, this impressive 391.27-acre farm offers an outstanding combination of recreational opportunities, wildlife habitat, agricultural versatility, and established annual income. With rolling terrain, expansive timber, open pasture, multiple ponds, and excellent access, this property has the size and diversity that serious landowners, investors, and outdoor enthusiasts appreciate.

The farm features approximately 214 acres enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), currently generating $55,716 in annual income at $260 per acre. The current CRP contract expires September 30, 2027. In addition, approximately 161 acres of pasture generate $7,468 annually, bringing the property's combined annual income to $63,184. The FSA cropland acres carry an average weighted CSR2 rating of 51.42, providing additional insight into the farm's agricultural productivity and long-term land-use potential.

The rolling topography is one of the property's defining characteristics. Sweeping ridges, mature timbered hillsides, secluded valleys, and natural travel corridors create an attractive landscape for whitetail deer, wild turkey, and other wildlife. Multiple ponds provide valuable water sources for wildlife and livestock, while a centrally located five-acre food plot adds another important element to the property's hunting potential.

For the serious whitetail hunter, the layout and access options are particularly appealing. Multiple entry points along the northeast, northwest, southeast, and south sides of the farm provide flexibility when approaching different hunting locations based on wind direction, seasonal movement, and hunting pressure. The combination of established CRP cover, mature timber, food sources, water, and varied terrain offers the ingredients for a well-rounded hunting property with opportunities for thoughtful habitat and land management.

Outside of its recreational appeal, this farm offers a compelling combination of current income and long-term versatility. The 214 acres of CRP provide established conservation income and extensive wildlife cover, while the 161 acres of pasture offer additional agricultural utility and annual revenue. With the CRP contract scheduled to expire in September 2027, a future owner will have an opportunity to evaluate renewal options, alternative conservation programs, or other agricultural uses, subject to applicable program requirements and land-use regulations.

The property's multiple access points also make it practical to reach different areas for agricultural operations, pasture management, habitat improvements, and recreational activities. The combination of open ground, mature timber pasture, ponds, and strategically located future food sources creates a diverse landscape that can be managed for multiple objectives.

Large, contiguous tracts with this combination of acreage, established income, rolling terrain, mature timber, water, and hunting access are increasingly difficult to find in west-central Iowa. Whether you're looking to establish a premier hunting property, expand your agricultural holdings, or invest in a substantial recreational farm with multiple income sources, this 391.27-acre Guthrie County property deserves a closer look.
