This beautiful Lucas County, Iowa property has a lot to offer. If you’ve been looking for a proven hunting farm with living quarters, you’ll want to take a look at this property. The 120 +/- acres offer a wide diversity of habitat and terrain including hardwood timber, cedar thickets, water sources, and established food plot locations. 40 +/- acres of expired CRP could be cleaned up and put into tillable production, providing income or additional food sources. The hardwood timber consists of healthy numbers of oak, walnut, and hickory. The back 40 consists mainly of hardwood timber and is guarded on the east side by cedars, making entry and exit ideal. The deer sign and history on this farm is impressive, which isn’t surprising when considering the location. The property sits just 2.5 miles south of Stephens State Forest and a few hundred yards from the Chariton River. Simply put, this is an area where there is no shortage of big bucks. When walking the property it’s evident it has the ingredients necessary to attract and hold mature whitetails. Turkey numbers are also off the charts as a group of 50+ birds was spotted while touring the property.

If the hunting and recreational appeal weren’t enough, this property offers the best of country living with a 64'x42' Morton shop house.
