Property Info

Description

Create your own country retreat on this versatile 11.88-acre property located just off a paved highway and only 10 miles west of Ottumwa, Iowa. With a small pond, mature timber, planted pines, open ground, and utilities already in place, this property offers an excellent combination of a rural building site and affordable recreational land.

A built-in driveway leads into the property, where several potential building areas overlook the open ground and small pond. Rural water, electric, and an existing septic system are already on site, with utility lines installed underground. The septic system was installed around 2001 as a sand filtration system and remains functional; buyers should verify that it meets current requirements. The existing trailer is not included and will be removed prior to closing.

The property features a nice mix of mowed open ground, established pines, and mixed timber across gently rolling terrain. The pond provides an attractive focal point for a future homesite, while the timber and pines create privacy and additional opportunities to enjoy wildlife, hunting, and the outdoors right outside your door.

With approximately 282 feet of frontage along Ridge Road, residential use allowed, and mobile or manufactured homes permitted, this property offers plenty of flexibility. Build a home, create a weekend getaway, establish your own recreational retreat, or simply invest in a manageable piece of southern Iowa land.

Located approximately 4 miles from Blakesburg and 10 miles west of Ottumwa, this is an opportunity to enjoy more space, privacy, and recreation without giving up convenient access to town.
