Beautiful Ranch Home with Morton Building on 20 Acres of Peaceful Paradise

Property Description

Midwest Land Group is proud to present this beautiful and exceptionally well-maintained 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch home situated on 20 +/- picturesque acres in one of the most peaceful country settings you'll find. Conveniently located just 40 miles south of Des Moines, 21 miles from Indianola, 1½ miles west of Highway 65, and 1 mile south of the Warren County line in Lucas County, this private retreat offers the perfect balance of accessibility and complete seclusion. The property is also approximately 45 minutes from both Lake Red Rock and Lake Rathbun, Iowa's two largest lakes, providing outstanding opportunities for boating, fishing, camping, and year-round recreation.

Tucked away on a quiet gravel road with virtually no traffic, you'll enjoy breathtaking views, unmatched privacy, and the tranquility that only rural Iowa can provide. Enjoy your morning coffee while watching deer, flocks of wild turkeys, rabbits, and other wildlife right from the dining room window or spacious north-facing deck. With no neighboring homes in sight and nothing but the sounds of nature, this property offers the peaceful country lifestyle so many buyers dream about.

Built in 1978, the home has been exceptionally cared for and offers approximately 1,500 square feet of finished living space on the main level, plus an additional 1,500 square foot walkout basement that is partially finished and includes a non-conforming fourth bedroom, providing outstanding potential for additional living space, guest accommodations, or storage. A cozy wood-burning fireplace makes the main level the perfect place to gather after a day outdoors. The home also features a new septic system and drain field along with new flooring in the kitchen and dining room, providing peace of mind for the next owners.

The property has been lovingly maintained by the current owners for more than 50 years and has never been hunted, allowing the local deer herd to mature into truly impressive Iowa whitetails. Surrounded by exceptional habitat in every direction, this acreage is perfectly positioned to consistently attract and hold trophy-class bucks. Deer, turkey, pheasants, and rabbits are abundant throughout the property.

The 20 +/- acres include approximately 10 acres of highly productive farmland carrying a 70.5 CSR2 rating, complemented by native grasses, mature timber, and a small pond that enhances both wildlife habitat and the property's natural beauty.

Built in 2002, the impressive 40'x60' (2,400 square foot) Morton building offers endless possibilities for equipment storage, a workshop, livestock shelter, or recreational use. Whether you're looking for a hobby farm with horses, cattle, goats, or simply a private country estate, this property is well equipped to meet your needs.

Opportunities to own a peaceful, move in ready acreage with productive farmland, quality outbuildings, incredible wildlife, and unmatched privacy are becoming increasingly rare. This is a property that truly must be experienced to appreciate everything it has to offer.
