Turn-Key Recreation, Income, & Lifestyle Property

Property Description

Rarely does a property offer the opportunity to step in and simply enjoy the results of someone else's hard work. This exceptional 206 +/- acre Davis County property reflects years of thoughtful improvements, careful stewardship, and significant investment in both the land and the lifestyle it provides.

Thoughtfully developed and meticulously maintained, this turn-key Southern Iowa property combines an exceptional headquarters, productive income-producing acres, outstanding fishing opportunities, and the type of hunting habitat that has made the region famous among whitetail enthusiasts. From the custom-built residence and impressive shop complex to the stocked ponds, established food plots, fruit trees, and mature timber, every aspect of the property reflects careful planning and a commitment to doing things the right way.

At the center of the property sits a custom-built headquarters completed in 2021. The approximately 2,725 square foot residence was designed to be both functional and inviting, featuring an open-concept layout, soaring ceilings, custom cabinetry, quality finishes, and a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that anchors the main living space. The bright, modern interior creates a comfortable setting for everyday living, weekend retreats, or entertaining family and friends. Attached to the residence is an impressive, heated shop with radiant floor heat, complemented by expansive cold storage capable of accommodating equipment, tractors, side-by-sides, boats, campers, and everything needed to enjoy and manage a property of this caliber.

Surrounding the headquarters is a setting that is difficult to replicate. Five stocked ponds are positioned throughout the property, creating outstanding fishing opportunities while adding to both the beauty and functionality of the farm. Bass, crappie, and additional species can be found within the pond system. More than 150 fruit trees, including peach, apple, and additional varieties, have been planted throughout the property, many of which are already producing fruit. The combination of water, food sources, habitat improvements, and mature timber creates an environment that can be enjoyed throughout the year.

For the hunting enthusiast, the property checks every box. Mature timber, established food plots, South Wyaconda River frontage, strategically positioned Redneck blinds and feeders, and excellent internal access combine to create a property that is both highly attractive to wildlife and exceptionally huntable. The layout allows hunters to move throughout the farm while minimizing disturbance, while years of habitat improvements have helped create a recreational property capable of producing memorable experiences season after season. Trail camera history collected throughout multiple seasons documents the caliber of mature bucks utilizing the property and supports Davis County's reputation as one of Southern Iowa's premier hunting destinations.

In addition to its recreational appeal, the farm offers meaningful income potential. Approximately 94 +/- acres are currently utilized for row crop production, with an additional 23 +/- acres established in alfalfa. The tillable acres carry an average CSR2 rating of approximately 47.7 and provide a productive agricultural component that helps support long-term ownership. Local operators have expressed interest in leasing the cropland at approximately $250 per acre, creating potential annual income approaching $30,000 while maintaining the property's recreational value.

Since acquiring the property in 2021, the owner has continued investing heavily in both the farm's productivity and recreational appeal. Improvements to the headquarters, tile and fertility investments, habitat enhancements, hunting infrastructure, and continued stewardship are evident throughout the property. The result is a property that feels complete, thoughtfully developed, and ready for its next owner.

Whether your vision includes hunting mature whitetails, spending evenings fishing with family, entertaining friends at the headquarters, or simply owning a property where the hard work has already been done, this exceptional Davis County offering deserves serious consideration.
