Situated in the beautiful Loess Hills of Western Iowa, this combination of recreational/hunting and income-producing property offers many opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts and avid hunters. Encompassing acres of diverse terrain, including dense timber, open fields, and established food plots, this property provides great habitat for various wildlife.
As you approach the property, you’ll see the steep Loess Hills topography, which makes for a very secluded property while still having road access on two sides with various entry points. Multiple habitat improvement projects have been completed, such as creating two different alfalfa food plots, old field management, and establishing numerous bedding units within the farm. Other habitat projects include specific plans to control the smooth brome in certain locations and help return those landscape portions to the native species unique to the Loess Hills.
Subsequently, the property features hunting opportunities for deer, turkey, and other wildlife, making it a great opportunity for those seeking an immersive and rewarding hunting experience.
Adding to its appeal, the center and secluded portion of the land is dedicated to 7.85 +/- acres of tillable crop production, providing recreational enjoyment and a source of farm income. The tillable acres have an average weighted CSR2 value of 83.8. These high-quality soils will provide strong crop yields to your farming operation or an attractive opportunity for other owners/investors to rent the farmland in cash. The current owners have also been leaving portions of the crop standing for a consistent food source throughout late fall and winter to supplement the wildlife on the farm.
In addition to the incredible rolling landscape, established trails weave through the wooded areas and field edges, allowing access to a large portion of the property and a strategic approach to hunting spots for different winds. These trails could also be great for ATV/UTV riding, snowmobiling, hiking, or horseback riding.
Loess Hills combination farms, especially those of this size, are in high demand and offer many opportunities to many interests. Whether you're an avid hunter or looking to invest in a versatile piece of real estate, this recreational/hunting property with tillable income offers the best of both worlds.
