This is a rare opportunity to own a turn-key recreational property in Madison County, Iowa, just a short drive from the Des Moines metro. This secluded yet easily accessible parcel offers an exceptional combination of wildlife habitat, income-producing ground, established trails, and proven recreational potential.
The property features two established food plot locations strategically positioned to enhance wildlife attraction and hunting opportunities. Approximately 7.5 acres of alfalfa provide an established income while also serving as a valuable food source for wildlife, adding both productivity and habitat value to the property.
A standout feature is more than half a mile of Clayton Creek frontage, creating a natural travel corridor and habitat for deer and other wildlife. The combination of creek bottom, agricultural cover, food sources, and trails creates the type of diverse habitat recreational buyers look for.
The property is truly turn-key, with established trails and a proven track record of attracting and holding wildlife. Whether you're looking for a private hunting property, a weekend escape, an investment with agricultural income, or simply your own piece of the Iowa outdoors, this parcel offers an impressive package.
