Property Description

Tucked into the rolling hills of legendary Madison County, this breathtaking 198 +/- acre property is the kind of place people spend a lifetime searching for and rarely find. Hidden behind a private, secluded driveway and surrounded by the timeless beauty of southern Iowa, this remarkable farm offers a rare combination of peace, recreation, income, and unforgettable views.

Located just 9 miles south of Winterset and only 50 minutes from Des Moines International Airport, the property feels worlds away while remaining incredibly accessible. With access from paved Clark Tower Road and 290th Street, convenience meets complete seclusion.

From the moment you arrive, the panoramic hilltop views capture your attention. Towering hardwood timber, winding creek bottoms, rolling CRP fields, productive farmland, and abundant wildlife create a setting that feels more like a private retreat than a farm. Whether you are looking for a premier hunting property, a peaceful getaway, or a forever homesite, this property delivers at the highest level.

At the center of the property sits a charming 1-story frame home built in 1994, offering comfort and simplicity in an extraordinary setting. Imagine mornings overlooking the valleys as the sun rises over the timber. Evenings filled with gobbling turkeys, rutting whitetails, and quiet sunsets stretching across the Iowa hills. This is a property where memories are made for generations — hunting with family, riding trails, fishing the creek, or simply enjoying the unmatched peace and privacy.

Properties of this caliber in Madison County are incredibly rare. The combination of location, natural beauty, recreational opportunity, income production, and secluded hilltop living makes this one of the finest offerings to hit the market. This is more than a farm; it is a legacy property.
