Mississippi River Views, Hunting, and High-Quality Farmland

Property Description

It is exceptionally rare to find a sizable property along the Mississippi River that seamlessly combines elevated river-view building sites, premier hunting, and highly productive tillable ground. This 78.55 +/- acre Lee County, Iowa farm brings all three together — offering an incoming owner an unrivaled opportunity to build a custom home or cabin, enjoy exceptional hunting opportunities, and collect steady farm income.

The Mississippi River is the defining backdrop of this unique property. Mississippi River Road (which is paved) borders the east side of the farm, with the river sitting just across the road. Multiple potential building sites along the eastern edge offer views of the water, with the farm's rolling tillable fields and timber draws stretching out behind you.

In addition to scenic building sites, the property boasts excellent hunting and outdoor recreational potential. A diverse mix of hardwood timber, secluded field edges, and natural pinch points creates ideal wildlife habitat. The property has experienced very little hunting pressure over the years — yet extensive deer sign and high numbers of deer feeding in the soybean fields are evident throughout. A new owner will step into a clean slate to establish food plots, strategic stand locations, and long-term habitat management.

The agricultural footprint consists of approximately 44 tillable acres featuring an impressive 81.5 CSR2 average, offering reliable income potential. The current tenant retains farming rights through March 1, 2027, along with the 2026 crops, leaving the crop lease completely open for the 2027 farming season.

Situated just minutes from town, the property offers a private rural setting with quick, convenient access to daily amenities, supplies, dining, and healthcare in nearby Keokuk and Fort Madison. Held in the same family for more than 100 years, opportunities to purchase land of this caliber along the Mississippi River corridor are few and far between.
