Description
High-quality acreages with both strong recreational value and a well-built home are getting harder to find in western Iowa—especially in a location like this. Situated on 20.55 acres just outside Woodbine in Harrison County, this property brings together privacy, views, and a level of home construction you don’t often see.
The home was built in 2008 by Rocky Mountain Log Homes and offers 3,966 finished square feet with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. From the moment you walk in, it’s clear this isn’t a standard build. The full log construction provides both structural integrity and long-term durability, while also giving the home a solid, substantial feel throughout.
Attention to detail shows up in every part of the house. The logs are well-matched and finished, the joinery is tight, and the overall fit and finish reflect careful planning and execution. Interior spaces are built around natural materials—wood beams, solid wood finishes, and stone elements—creating a consistent look that fits the setting without feeling overdone. The ceilings are tall and open, and the window placement was clearly designed with purpose, capturing natural light and framing the surrounding timber and valley views.
The main living area is laid out to be both functional and comfortable, whether you're hosting a group or just spending a quiet evening at home. The kitchen and adjoining spaces are built with quality cabinetry, durable surfaces, and a layout that makes sense for everyday use.
This is the kind of home that was built to last—not just in terms of structure, but in design. It’s practical, well thought out, and fits the property instead of competing with it.
The setting is just as strong. The home sits on a high ridge overlooking the Boyer River Valley, with long-range views in multiple directions. A 0.58-mile private driveway off Highway 30 leads back to the home, creating separation from the road and a true sense of privacy. Mature oak timber surrounds the house, providing both shade and a natural buffer.
From a land standpoint, this tract offers real potential. The mix of hardwood timber, rolling terrain, and natural movement corridors creates ideal conditions for whitetails and other wildlife. Harrison County is known for its deer quality, and properties with this type of layout—cover, elevation, and limited pressure—consistently perform. Whether you're looking to hunt, improve habitat, or simply enjoy watching wildlife, this property is set up to do it.
Beyond hunting, the acreage lends itself well to trail systems, hiking, or just getting out and using the land. The topography gives it a larger feel, and the timber adds to both the privacy and overall experience.
Location continues to be a major advantage. You’re only about 2 miles from Woodbine for day-to-day needs, with convenient access to Council Bluffs and Omaha for work, travel, or additional amenities.
Properties that combine this level of build quality, privacy, and recreational value don’t come available often. This is a well-rounded property that checks the boxes for both lifestyle and long-term investment.
