Description

Located in southern Lucas County, Iowa, near Derby, this +/- 39.28-acre property offers a compact, well-laid-out hunting tract with Hamilton Creek running through the middle, open ground on both sides, and gravel road frontage along 430th Street. The combination of creek, timber, and open acres makes this an efficient property to hunt and manage.

Hamilton Creek winds through the center of the property, and the timber and brush along its banks form a natural travel corridor between the open fields. This creek corridor acts as a funnel for deer moving through the area, and the property shows plenty of deer sign along the creek and timber edges. A hunting blind is already in place.

Approximately +/- 27 acres of the property 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 has flexibility in how to use these acres. According to the Lucas County Assessor, the cropland carries an average CSR of approximately 43.5. The open ground could be returned to row crop production, re-enrolled in a conservation program down the road, or planted to food plots. A large food plot in the northeast portion of the property, adjacent to the timber, could help draw deer onto the farm and hold them through the season.

The remaining +/- 12 acres follow the creek and include timber, brush, and edge cover. In addition to whitetails, turkeys and pheasants have been seen using the property, and the mix of grass, cover, and water supports a range of wildlife throughout the year.

Road frontage on 430th Street along the south boundary provides direct access, and the property's size and layout make it manageable for a single owner who wants a place to hunt, plant food plots, and improve habitat over time. It could also make for a great building site.

The property is located a few miles west of US Highway 65 near Derby, with Chariton approximately 15 miles to the northeast and Des Moines about an hour north. Contact Whitetail Properties Land Specialist Dylan Hand to schedule a private showing.
