Diverse 49 Acres With Updated Home, Outbuildings & Wildlife

Property Description

Located just 6 miles southwest of Ottumwa, on the scenic hard-surface Lake Road, sits this 49 acre beauty. This property contains everything you could need, from a beautifully updated home, multiple usable outbuildings, and land for every use.

The home is 1,308 finished square feet, containing 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms all on the main level, with expensive updates throughout. Within the last 10 years, all of the costly work has been done. A new furnace, AC, Water Heater, and kitchen appliances were installed, along with beautiful hardwood floors throughout. A 16'x16' luxury bath & laundry room was added on as well, which feels like a home spa. The kitchen is a statement itself with beautiful quartz countertops and knotty alder soft-close cabinetry. Just outside the home is a cozy porch and established landscaping, including a sidewalk and retaining wall that were installed in 2021. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a more updated and turn-key cottage nestled on a property like this.

Just outside the house, you’ll find several spacious and usable outbuildings. 22'x24' detached garage, 26'x36' shop 10'x12' utility building, 26'x40' pole shed. The old 1928 barn is still standing as well, and is pretty cool to see. One of the barn walls was replaced in 2003. Someone could carry on the torch to maintain the 100 year old barn; otherwise, there still remain other good outbuildings.

The land itself is a beautiful combination of pasture, hay, timber, and ponds. This mixed habitat has tremendous wildlife appeal. There is plentiful whitetail, turkey, and pheasant traffic, and a combination of fish species in the stocked pond. The pasture and hay fields are each 18+/- acres; the remainder is timber, pond, and the homestead. The hay fields have been brush cut over the last few years, are well maintained, and could be put back into production. There’s so much more to this property than what will fit on this listing description; you just have to see it for yourself! Contact Land Agent Andrea Moore to schedule your showing at (319) 572-9260. Pre-approval will be requested prior to showing.
