Investment Farm with Fishing and Hunting

If you’re looking for an investment farm for sale that offers great fishing, building sites, and hunting opportunities, this could be it.  This rolling Decatur County, Iowa property is 106 gross acres m/l. Over 80% is FSA farmable, with the balance being timbered draws and grass waterways and features a stocked pond.

The farm is primarily one continuous farm field, which is easily accessible with large equipment.  New crossings were installed along the waterway, allowing access to all points on the property.  The 2021 crop was soybeans and averaged 55 +/- bushels per acre.  The farming rights are open for 2022 and the new owner will have immediate possession for the current crop year.

Though most of the farm is income producing, the habitat in the immediate area and on the farm holds a good number of deer.  Converting a few of the smaller fields to bedding habitat and food plots would take the hunting to the next level.  Surrounding farms are a mix of thick bedding habitat.  Overgrown pasture and a large CRP farm are located to the North and East and major blocks of timber are to the South.  The farm serves as a destination food source for the local whitetail heard, and it is easy to see 30+ deer feeding out in the picked crops during the winter.  A few acres of standing beans or corn would make this an incredible late season spot.  During November, rutting bucks use the primary N/S draw as a cruising corridor between the North and South CRP / timber areas, making for great archery setups.

A large pond is located just about in the center of the farm, and it is well stocked with giant bass and crappie.  Adjacent to the pond, there’s a hilltop view overlooking the major timbered ridges to the South and West.  This spot is perfect for a weekend getaway cabin or future building site.

At just over an hour from Des Moines, this property is close enough for some regular R&R away from the city, all while generating a great annual return.  With paved roads all the way to the farm, it’s an easy drive too.  It’s not often an investment farm for sale offers a place to spend the weekends by the pond catching loads of fish as well as a place to hunt deer.  If this sounds like something you’ve been looking for, don’t hesitate to schedule your private tour.

Note, adjacent to the East border is another farm for sale and available for purchase.  Together, the two properties create approximately 144 acres of income producing land with ample hunting, building sites, and fishing opportunities.
