Property Info

Description

Peoples Company is pleased to present this unique, multi-use recreational farm located in the heart of Big Buck country, just an hour's drive from Des Moines. This farm is located in Sections 2 and 3 of Union Township in Union County, Iowa, just a few miles north of Afton.

A quick look at some of the aerial photos shows massive chunks of timber to the northwest and southeast. This property serves as a prime travel corridor that is sure to bring in new bucks on a regular basis. With bean and clover plots planted and a pond on the farm, this property is more than just a travel corridor and has everything a property would need to hold mature bucks year-round. Timber Stand Improvement was done early this spring to help create bedding pockets throughout the farm to further extend the deer herd on the property. With an equipment shed on the property for storage and two brand new Hawk bow stands going with the farm, this property is a turnkey hunting farm and will be ready on day one.

The allure of the property does not stop at just the hunting potential. There is a gorgeous building site overlooking the rolling hills of southern Iowa on the south end of the farm that would be perfect for your dream home. Surrounding the building site is a diverse mix of timber consisting of oaks, walnuts, & giant cedars that any outdoor enthusiast is sure to appreciate. To further enhance the property's allure, there are 5.12 acres of CRP on the northeast portion of the farm that pays $308.75 for an annual income of $1,581.

Whether you are looking to build your dream home, hunt monster whitetails, or escape to the peace of the countryside with a short drive from the metro, this property is the one for you. Utilities are at the road, with SIRWA being the rural water provider and Farmers Electric Cooperative being the electric provider.
