TBD 189th, Iowa

Description

This secluded Monroe County farm is loaded with diverse habitat, including hardwood timber, bottomland timber, native grasses, tillable acres, and multiple ponds. Situated in the heart of one of the most well-known whitetail counties in all of southern Iowa, this is a prime hunting farm with the ideal setup to intercept the kind of giant bucks the area is famous for. Access further enhances the seclusion. After turning off the gravel road, you cross railroad tracks that naturally limit traffic and result in virtually no road frontage or visibility into the property. As you enter through the gated entrance, you’ll find a level area with electricity and rural water already on site—an excellent location for parking a camper or building a cabin. There is a smaller shed to store tools and hunting equipment as well. This setup allows you to stay on the property without disturbing key hunting areas. Several miscanthus plantings near the entrance provide outstanding screening around the potential campsite. The majority of the timber consists of hardwood hilltops with patchy cedar cover, particularly along the eastern side of the property. Several acres of the farm are enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), contributing both habitat value and dependable income. The property also includes about 12 additional tillable acres that could be maintained as food plots or cash rented for further income potential.

Directions: From Albia, head west on Benton Ave W for .6 miles and continue onto 189th St for 1.8 miles. The property will be on your left.
