Description
Madison County, Iowa Land Available - Located just 30 minutes southwest of the Des Moines Metro and within the boundaries of the Winterset Community School District, this property offers a great place to build with immediate access to pavement combined with boundless recreational opportunities!
This 49.62-surveyed-acre property is located 2.50 miles directly east of Winterset, Iowa along the north side of Iowa Highway 92. There are multiple locations to build that are suitable for nearly all home types and walkouts combined with the privacy of the bermed southern boundary along the highway. The property consists of a reclaimed gravel pit with a shared 7 ½-acre pond on the northern portion of the property and an additional ½-acre pond on the northeast corner. Both ponds are stocked with game fish including bass, bluegill, crappie, and walleye, and are easily accessible by smaller boats.
A portion of the driveway to access the northern part of the tract is located on the adjoining landowner's property. There is a newer, well-maintained, six-strand, barbed wire fence along the northern property, but the actual surveyed property boundary is located south of the current fence line.
Improvements to this tract include available rural water service through Warren Rural Water District and electric service through Mid-American Energy. There is a four-inch rural water line located along the south side of State Highway 92, but there is a record of an existing water pit immediately west of the driveway entrance. MidAmerican Energy has power lines located along the south side of State Highway 92.
This tract is located within Section 27 of Union Township, Madison County, Iowa. With Interstate 80 to the north and Interstate 35 to the east, take advantage of this great opportunity to own a recreational and buildable site only one-half hour from the Des Moines Metro!
