View on Google MapsDescription
This is an exceptional opportunity for an aspiring first-time landowner - a chance to own a prime small hunting property with a building site. This land has income producing acres, thick timber, a secluded pond, and terrain that is perfect for archery and late-season hunting.
Located between Salem and Lowell, five miles south of Mount Pleasant, this smaller parcel has many features that you need for great hunting. Its in a great area for big whitetails; and has secluded fields, native grass, thick timber, a wildlife pond, and a clover food plot. Seven acres in the Conservation Reserve Program pay $1,083 annually until 2027. Taxes last year were only $136.
Big Creek is 150 yards to the north, and the Skunk River is a mile and a half to the southwest. The surrounding area consists of large tracts with minimal hunting pressure, providing excellent habitat for bucks to grow mature. I can pick out a number of great archery stand sites on this property just by reading the terrain and cover. You could also take advantage of the secluded fields and plant a grain plot for phenomenal winter hunting.
There's potential to build a home or cabin on the northeast ridges off Lexington Avenue. Showings are by appointment only with advanced notice by contacting Ben Harshyne with The Southeast Iowa Land Team for Whitetail Properties Real Estate.
