Southern Iowa Land For Sale

This unique Decatur County, Iowa Quiet, Small Country Acreage with Grand River frontage is not the kind of property that comes along every day. Located halfway between Decatur City and Grand River on a dead-end gravel road with year-round access, the opportunities here are, as they say, “endless”. Camping, Fishing, Boating, Hunting, a Weekend Cabin Getaway. And even though the property borders the Grand River, the west side of the property is high ground and would make a beautiful build site for a full-time Residence! This is an extremely quiet, secluded spot at the end of a dead-end road. If you’re looking for solitude, you will find it. If you want a quiet country space to build a home with a lot of distance between you and the neighbors, you will find it. If you want a place to take your family for a weekend of fun, quiet, and relaxation, you will find it.

An electric pole and transformer through Clarke County Electric Co-Op are already on the property and there is an older pole barn with concrete floor that isn’t fancy but will provide basic shelter for storage and equipment. Rural water service through SIRWA is within ¾ mile and an option to have run to the property, or a water well might also be an option. There is a water pump head on the property that doesn’t work currently but perhaps could be fixed also. The property is 25 miles from Osceola and 62 miles to West Des Moines.

Recreational opportunities abound from this property. You could set up lawn chairs and literally fish right off the Grand River bank on the property for catfish, carp, gar and drum. Or you could launch a small boat and go up or down river with the appropriate water level. And most summers the river gets low and is a rock bottom by the property and would be great for swimming or tubing with the kids! There is a walkway cut into the bank for easier access down to the river itself. There are even opportunities for waterfowl hunting in season for ducks and geese traveling up and down the river. There is also a small pond on the property.

There is deer sign on the property and crop fields in every direction on the neighbors, and public deer hunting opportunities are available nearby at the Decatur State Wildlife Area (approximately 6 miles north) and Sand Creek State Wildlife Area (approximately 8 miles northwest), and Sun Valley Lake recreational opportunities are only about 10 miles northwest!
