Recreational Land with Home for Sale in New Virginia, Iowa

20-acre opportunity just 26 miles from Des Moines-perfectly crafted for those who value both outdoor adventure & smart income potential (more land available). This home is also great for snowbirds, VRBO, or full-time living. This home offers 2bd & 1 bath w/laundry & plenty of room to expand the living space. This property marries prime hunting terrain-with manicured trails, strategically placed deer stands, & the tranquil South River bordering the southern edge-with exceptional investment versatility. The pole barn is 80x50 & features in-floor radiant heat & upgraded living quarters (1200 sqft), including two bedrooms, a 3/4 bath, new cabinets, luxury vinyl plank flooring, & Amish Knotty Alder trim. An insulated, tinned, 1,000?sq?ft heated shop plus a sizable 40?*?50 concrete bay offer the ideal foundation for workshops, rentals, or storage. Investors will appreciate its appeal for 1031 exchanges, VRBO income, or land leasing, especially with additional potential to lease hunting rights-a passive revenue stream that often outpaces traditional agricultural leases. Nestled just off pavement on a peaceful dead-end, this property offers both seclusion and accessibility-a true blend of recreational sanctuary and investment-grade land. Call today for your private showing. The land is in the WRP program. This means the land cannot be put into production or used to raise animals (room for chickens and small animals in the buildable area). The land is perfect for trail riding & hunting.
