This remote farm on the Iowa/Missouri border is breathtaking and has every component that a true top-end farm in southern Iowa can offer. It features thick-timbered hillsides, brushy fence lines, CRP, tillable, river bottom timber, and abundant water sources. Owned by the same individuals since the early 1990s, it’s been very well cared for and provides unmatched views. Located in an area known for producing trophy whitetails, this farm has all the ingredients needed for a premium hunting farm.
A quaint cabin on the south end is out of the way to any hunting and sanctuary areas, yet easily accessible and a great place to spend the weekend. Next to the cabin are two sheds for storing equipment to manage the farm. The cabin has power and a well for water.
The South Wyaconda River runs northwest to southeast through the heart of the farm, offering an excellent travel corridor for rutting whitetails. Water is plentiful because of the river and four ponds. The largest, located just west of the cabin, is stocked with Crappie, Catfish, and Sunfish.
Ninety acres of tillable ground have an average corn suitability rating of 65, which is excellent for a hunting property in deep southern Iowa. Farmland of this quality should cash rent for well over $200/acre. In addition, 34.7 acres enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program pays an additional $4,522/year, making this property a great investment with annual revenue.
Timber Avenue runs north-south through the eastern portion of the farm, and for ¼ mile, this road is Level C, which is private access solely for this farm and the neighboring field to the east. Gated entrances on each side keep this portion of the road locked down, and on the south end, a beautiful privately owned bridge allows access across the river.
Pinch points and funnels across the farm make excellent bowhunting locations to target specific bucks and have deer in range of your tree stand. Multiple secluded fields and pockets would make for perfect food plot locations, offering great entrance and exit routes; the surrounding timber creates a comfortable place for deer to feed in daylight hours. My partner Rich mentioned that the most impressive shed antler collection he’s ever seen was collected just over a mile from this farm.
If you’re in the market for a high-quality real estate asset that offers great income and hunting opportunities, this property might be just what you’ve been waiting for. Call southeast Iowa Land Specialists Ben Harshyne and Rich Baugh to schedule your private showing.
