Located less than 1 hour from Des Moines, this three-bedroom, 2 1/2-bathroom, 2-story modern home sits on 156 picturesque acres! The home was constructed in 2005 and was purposefully orientated so the front of the home faces to the south, looking into the farm at the rolling Southern Iowa hills and over the nearly 2-acre stocked pond. Since construction, this home has been used primarily as a weekend retreat and fall hunting camp. But with all the modern conveniences this property provides, such as high-speed fiber optic internet, this home could be ideal for remote workers or those who don't mind a short commute.The farm is nearly a 50/50 mix of income-producing CRP and recreational acres. This habitat mix of warm-season grasses, timber, brush, fence lines, and ponds creates an ideal habitat for whitetail deer, turkey, pheasants, and quail. The established annual and perennial food plots supplement the wildlife, giving them extra nutrition and increasing hunting success on the farm. With multiple access points on the north and east sides, the groomed trails lead to strategically placed elevated blinds and stands.This turnkey property truly is a sportsman's dream. It has quality deer, turkey, and upland bird hunting—fishing in the stocked pond, a comfortable modern home, and country views for miles. Many properties offer some of these amenities, but this property offers ALL!To learn more about this incredible property or to schedule a private showing, call the Listing Agent and Land Specialist—showings by appointment only.
