The perfect all-purpose property for the outdoor enthusiast—this rural retreat offers income, hunting ground, serenity, great vistas and a building site for a hunting lodge, second home or country estate. Imagine a ridge-top home or cabin with beautiful panoramic views. Deer, turkey, quail, morel mushrooms, wild flowers, bird-watching, hiking, cross-country skiing—it’s all there for you on 160 acres of rolling grassland, acre-plus pond and oak-and-hickory woods. Eighteen acres of alfalfa also provides cash income (or hay to feed your horses). A tenant currently hays on part of the property providing income. The entire property has good exterior fencing.ews of the Decatur County rolling countryside and wide-open skies. This wildlife-rich property features an acre-plus pond—the perfect spot to glimpse migrating water fowl or catch fish in your own farm pond. The rolling hills are surrounded by deep ravines covered in thick stands of oak and hickory trees. The Iowa Department of Natural Resources reported 2,168 deer harvested in the 2006-2007 hunting season from Decatur County. All the southern-tier counties feature abundant deer and turkeys. This rural retreat close enough to neighboring towns that you can enjoy a great meal or a day of shopping, but far enough away from city lights so you feel one with nature. Star-gazing is fabulous without the light pollution of metro areas. Yet, the land is so easy to get to—it’s just one hour south of Des Moines and minutes from the exit off I-35. Once you are there, it’s just you, the rolling hills and wide-open skies and the abundant wildlife that call this little piece of heaven home—share the experience with white-tailed deer, strutting turkeys, abundant songbirds.
