Welcome to this stunning 278-acre farm, set amidst the picturesque rolling hills of the Driftless Region. This versatile property has a balanced mix of 190 +/- acres of tillable farm ground and timber that can be purchased in its entirety or divided into two distinct tracts, catering to your unique land ownership needs. Located west of Loran, this farm gains access off of Gerke Road, where you have a lane that travels between the timber and tillable ground, leading to the buildings nestled into the interior of the farm. The eastern side features a blend of tillable fields, timber and open areas. This portion of the farm provides approximately 90 acres of tillable ground, predominantly located in the northern section. This property not only offers potential for farming income but is also a haven for deer and turkey hunting. With ample stands of timber, there are numerous hunting opportunities and observed bedding areas. Towards the northern section, there’s a 2.5-acre field perfect for establishing a large food plot, ideally situated near the timber. Splitting the farm ground on the eastern side of the farm and western side, you have a large block of mature timber that would allow for a trail system and would offer multiple stand locations. Continuing to the west, there are approximately 100 acres of tillable farmland are spread across several areas, with the main field situated in the interior, surrounded by timber on three sides. Within the largest timber stand, there’s a one-acre pocket that could be opened up and planted as a food plot. Additionally, across the 23-acre crop field approaching the the western boundary, you’ll find two pockets of tillable ground that can be farmed or converted into food plots. With its beautiful topography and proximity to both timber and agricultural land, this property is a rare gem in the Driftless Region. Whether you’re looking for farmland, a hunting retreat or a future home site, this 278-acre farm offers endless possibilities.
