Exceptional 10+ acre opportunity in Johnston with strong potential for future residential development or executive homesites. Positioned near Johnston High School in an area of continued residential growth, this parcel offers a rare opportunity to secure land of this size and setting within Johnston city limits. Mature trees, pond views, and rolling ground create a scenic natural backdrop with flexible potential for future use. It is believed NW 68th St and NW 98th St would need to be connected as an extension of the area neighborhoods as part of the City of Johnston's comprehensive plan, subject to all required approvals. Buyer to verify zoning, future land use, development potential, utility access, road access, pond/water feature requirements, environmental considerations, and any restrictions or approvals with the City of Johnston, Iowa Department of Natural Resources, and all applicable governmental or regulatory entities. The parcel currently has a 1922 farmhouse, detached garage, and outbuilding, all being sold as-is with no warranties expressed or implied. Seller anticipates an auction of personal property and contents prior to closing; buyer should verify which fixtures, equipment (if any), outbuildings, or other items will remain with the property and address inclusions in the purchase agreement.
