Jones County
Tremendous Recreational Property With Food Plot In Eastern IA
CH E 17, lot#WP001 Scotch Grove, IA 52310
Description
This property simply represents everything a farm in Iowa can have on recreational property. The CRP is loaded with pheasants, and the timber supports a robust deer and turkey population. Nearly every time I stopped to take a photo, I spooked turkeys out of the timber. The topography is spectacular, with nice draws and ravines. The main ravine has beautiful rock outcroppings in it, that are rare in this part of the county. The topography allows for multiple wind setups, as well as access throughout the property. There is direct hard road access, with an additional easement to get to the eastern part, through the neighbor’s driveway. Having this additional access allows for truck and tractor access to the CRP and timber towards the back of the farm. This property has one of the largest populations of black walnut that I have seen in my career. I would hate to put a number on how many walnut trees there are, but it is substantial. There is a pond currently on the property, and with a little work on it, I believe that you could have a deep pond to fish in for years to come. The CRP is outstanding and has been well maintained. It does generate $8177$ per year in income. The walnuts are numerous so I do believe that you could put the timber on a 10-year harvest rotation to add additional income for years to come. There is an Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation's easement on the property. Please contact me to go over the ins and outs of the property. You will not be able to build a home on the parcel. This farm supports so many outdoor activities and opportunities, you will want to see it for yourself! Call Grant Olson for a showing today!
