Henry County
Secluded Property With Home And Beautiful Pond In Southeast IA
2451 285th St, lot#WP001 New London, IA 52645
Description
This is an incredibly nice, smaller property with so much to offer! It is completely secluded with an owned driveway from the gravel road. There is only ¼ mile of gravel to get to the driveway! The driveway is rocked nicely and is very level. It has a 1,150 sq ft 1 bedroom / 1 bath house that is totally secluded and overlooks a beautiful pond in the backyard. The house has a nice kitchen that is open to the great room. The great room has a tall cathedral ceiling and a loft above the kitchen that is big enough for a couple of small beds. There is an additional small room in the home that could function as another bedroom if needed. Two back porches (one covered) offer a great view of the property and pond behind the house. A 30 x 40 shed with lean-to and a meat processing room was built in 2014. This shed has concrete floors, floor drains, and is perfect for storing vehicles, tractors, hunting equipment, etc. The property itself is ideal for hunting with a combination of high ridgetops and a ¼ mile long creek bottom on the N side. The owner has created a trail system that allows easy access to the entire property. There is one small field that has been planted into a food plot in the past but is currently in grass. I have no doubt this property would provide great deer and turkey hunting as it’s surrounded by timber and will be used by deer from all the surrounding properties. The creek bottom on the N side is already torn up with big rubs so there are definitely mature bucks using it now. If you’re looking for a completely secluded, smaller recreational farm with a home/cabin, outbuilding, and pond, you’ll want to check this one out. Smaller properties like this are in very high demand and this one likely won’t last long! Call Rich with questions or to schedule a showing.
