Description
Peoples Company is pleased to present 175.07m/l acres of premier recreational and hunting land with over a mile of South Skunk River frontage and an extensive trail system. Located just southwest of Sigourney, IA, in Keokuk County, this diverse property is a wildlife haven, boasting a strong history of trophy whitetail deer, as evidenced by trail camera photos and past harvests. With dense bedding cover, woody browse, and natural travel corridors, this farm provides the ideal habitat for whitetail hunting, serving as a natural sanctuary with minimal human disturbance along a Level B road. The seclusion and untouched nature of this property create a thriving ecosystem, making it the perfect setting to experience the breathtaking landscapes, the excitement of the whitetail rut, and waterfowl hunting along the river.
Beyond its exceptional recreational appeal, the farm offers significant tax advantages, with an annual property tax of just $718. Of the total acreage, 137.78 acres are enrolled in the Forest Reserve Program, reducing tax liability, while 167.01 acres are part of the Emergency Wetland Reserve Program (EWRP), ensuring long-term conservation benefits (easement details available for review). For those looking to enhance the property’s wildlife potential, opportunities exist to collaborate with local NRCS and forestry experts to improve bedding areas, establish food plots, and further develop the land’s natural resources. Currently, 8.06 acres are in alfalfa production, with a tenant in place for the 2025 cropping season. This area also presents an excellent opportunity for a small cabin or campsite. There is excellent cell service throughout the farm.
The seller is open to retaining 48.64 acres on the north end of the property, with shared access for both parties, while offering only the south 126.43 acres as a potential purchase option.
