Description
Located in southern Lucas County, Iowa, this +/- 157.43 acre property sits just a couple of miles west of US Highway 65 near the town of Derby. The farm offers a balance of open ground and mature timber, along with a pond, creek system, an established trail system, and road frontage on two sides.
The property is a square tract with road frontage along the entire north boundary on 430th Street and the entire west boundary on 130th Avenue. Two-sided frontage provides multiple entry points for equipment, hunting access, and future improvements, and mowed trails loop through the farm for quiet travel between the fields and the timber.
Approximately +/- 97 acres are open ground that was previously enrolled in CRP. The contract has been removed, so there is no CRP on the property today, and the next owner can return these acres to row crop production, put them into hay or pasture, plant food plots, or leave them in native cover. The open ground is spread across several fields on both sides of the central timber, including larger fields in the southeast and southwest portions of the farm.
The remaining +/- 59 acres are timber and tree lines. A central block of mature hardwoods, including large oaks, runs through the middle of the farm along the draws, with additional timber to the south. The timber provides mast and security cover, and the transitions between timber and open ground create long edges across the property. A pond in the northwest portion offers a water source for wildlife, as well as a constantly flowing Hamilton Creek that runs through the middle of the farm.
The farm is set up to hunt, with 3 elevated box blinds and ladder stands in place and a trail system that allows access without disturbing bedding areas. Trail camera photos and harvest history show the farm has produced mature bucks and has a great deer history. Lucas County sits in south-central Iowa, a region well known for whitetail deer hunting. The high ground offers views across the surrounding countryside, and the road frontage may provide options for a future cabin or home site.
Chariton is approximately 15 miles to the northeast, Osceola is approximately 20 miles to the northwest, and Des Moines is about an hour north. Contact Whitetail Properties Land Specialist Dylan Hand to schedule a private showing.
