Description

This gorgeous Dallas County, Iowa farm has it all.  From the 100 year old farmstead to the decades old CRP, and thick timber draws, this property has incredible character that you have to see in person to appreciate.
 
Located just South of Redfield, Iowa, this 90 /- acre tract of land has been held by the current owners for nearly 5 decades.  As you pull into the driveway, you’re greeted by the original concrete grain silo and barn, which date back to the early 1900’s.  Remnants of the other buildings on the property tell the story of what was once a rotational crop farm and hog operation.  Shortly after acquiring the land, the current owners enrolled the majority of the farm into CRP, and as you can see in the property photos, the farm is still covered in the beautiful big bluestem grasses to this day.  
 
This farm also features a diverse mix of thick timber, rolling ditches, a small pond, and a wet weather creek which all make it a unique mix of habitat that holds lots of wildlife.  The surrounding land is made up of several hundred acres of broken timber and farmland, which further help hold deer and turkeys in the area.  While the owners enjoyed great hunting earlier in their life, not many improvements by way of food plots or hunting blinds have been installed on the property recently.  So, there are certainly opportunities to improve the land for hunting.
 
This property has approximately 58 FSA acres rated at an average of 64 CSR2.  However, the majority of the ridgetops are 70 and 85 CSR2 soil types.  The CRP program is only 1 year old, and one consideration for a new owner would be to convert the better crop producing acres back into row crop to enhance the food availability for wildlife all while creating an opportunity for higher annual incomes through cash rent. 
 
With easy access to I-80, paved frontage, and the unique character, this property would be an ideal location for a future home as well.  It’s truly a piece of land you must see in person to appreciate.
 
The owners have spent a significant part of their lives preserving the natural beauty of this farm, and the time has come to pass it along to its next caretaker. If this property speaks to you, call land broker Chuck Johnson to set up your private tour before it is gone. (515) 993-7979.
