Located just east of Chariton, Iowa, this 101-acre M/L recreational paradise is a rare find for serious hunters and outdoor enthusiasts. Offering premier seclusion at the end of a dead-end road just 0.5 miles off pavement, this property is an ideal retreat while still being close to town.

The main level includes three bedrooms and two full baths, including a primary suite with a private bath. A large mudroom with laundry is conveniently located off the attached two-car garage. Downstairs, the finished walk-out basement includes a large additional bedroom, a 3/4 bath, and a second living area with a wood stove connected to the fireplace chimney for an added heat source. Ample storage throughout the home makes it easy to keep hunting and recreational gear organized.

A 30x40 machine shed offers additional storage space. The property’s dead-end road location provides unmatched privacy, while its proximity to Chariton ensures quick access to supplies, dining, and entertainment.
