Peoples Company is pleased to present Wildlife Acres, a rare opportunity to purchase a one of a kind property in the picturesque hills overlooking the Des Moines river corridor just north of the IA/MO border. Whether you are looking for a secluded recreational property, an ideal location for your cow/calf operation, or just that perfect place to call home, this may be the one that you’ve been holding out for. This property features an elegant 4480 SF two story home and several outbuildings overlooking two large stocked ponds and surrounded by 340 acres m/l of arguably some of the most scenic terrain you could imagine in southwestern Lee County, Iowa.
This secluded property is home to a vast array of wild game including deer, turkey, waterfowl, rabbit, squirrel, raccoon, coyote, fox and bobcat. Monks creek flows through the heart of the farm providing a year-round water source for the livestock and wildlife. Hunting has been strictly managed creating a private wildlife sanctuary in between two large tracts of the state-owned Croton Unit of Shimek State Forest. Highly maintained and manicured this property includes miles of groomed trails along with multiple box blinds, tree stands and food plots that have been placed in strategic locations over the years along the many natural deer travel routes. This is an excellent opportunity to “hit the ground running” and develop this farm into that world-class hunting property you’ve always dreamed about. Seasoned deer hunters will appreciate the unique combination of minimal road frontage along with easy access to every part of the property with the predominantly westerly winds in their favor.
The farm consists of a wide range of habitat including mature hardwood timber, brush, cedar thickets, native grasses, wildflowers, Aronia Berries, grass alfalfa hay, and four farm ponds. Annual income from the 91.31 acres of FSA tillable farmland, currently in hay production, will provide a solid return on your investment. Property is located in Section 25 of Van Buren Township just a 2hr drive from the Quad Cities or 2hr 45min from Des Moines or St Louis.
