Southern Iowa Land For Sale

This rolling Decatur County, Iowa 72 Acres +/- is a great pasture & hay property, with beautiful views and also hunting opportunities. Located less than a mile west of Grand River, with year-round gravel road access, just over 1/3 mile from pavement, with rural water (SIRWA) and electric (Clarke County Electric) at the road on the southeast corner, 17 miles from Leon and Lamoni, 25 miles to Osceola and 61 miles to West Des Moines.

Don’t let the aerial make you think there isn’t enough timber for there to be deer here. I put a couple of my trail cameras out a few months ago and had daylight pictures of deer that very same evening, in the daylight. See photos and video clips of multiple bucks accompanying this listing. Though the property is already a good set-up for pasture and hay, this property is a blank slate for potential habitat improvement projects for deer hunting also. There is already very thick cover along the timbered draws, but there are acres and acres of pasture that could be used for tree plantings and native warm season grass plantings to massively increase the deer holding power of the property, not to mention there are multiple great locations for food plots and/or standing corn/beans, hidden away out of sight of any roads, adjacent to long drainages that make natural rut travel corridors. The new owner will have full hunting rights for the 2024 hunting season.

There is a pasture/hay lease in place for the 2024 farm season with a local cattle rancher, but the 2025 lease year is available. The 2024 farm lease has been properly terminated per Iowa Farm Lease guidelines. Seller to retain 2024 farm season income. There is existing barb-wire fencing on south and west property boundaries, half of the east boundary and some interior fencing as well, though no fencing as of right now on the north boundary. There is also a pond for year-round water on the northeast side of the property. Pond is shared with the family member neighbor to the north. The new owner will take physical possession at closing and full legal possession upon expiration of farm tenant rights on the last day of February, 2025, per Iowa farm lease law.

There are some potential building sites on the south side of the property (with gravel road access) that have absolutely gorgeous, expansive views of the surrounding countryside and would have great views of the sunrise and sunset.
