Description
With 16 acres M/L of tillable income and a small 1/2 acre possible food plot, this scenic farm features tremendous marketable timber and a beautiful rock bottom stream. The name implies your first impression when touring this classic Southeast Iowa timber. The winding creek provides a year round water source for mature whitetails and seemingly endless numbers of turkeys. LandAndGame team member Tony Sargent and I had the incredible opportunity to hunt this property on a couple of evening adventures landing us in front of several good bucks in the 140 to 160 inch range. The bucks were truly up and comers and an excellent example of the potential that lies with this scenic investment opportunity. This property was originally part of the Bentler family estate for those of you who may be local. And, anyone who knew Mike Bentler, knows the quality of wildlife he raised during his time with us. An extraordinary bowhunter and all around outdoorsman, Mike had managed the original 400+ acres in a way that can only be described as quality driven. Two neighbors have already commented on the desire for a new neighbor who is truly passionate in continuing the pursuit of the growth of trophy whitetails. If you think these are some shoes fit for you, you owe it to yourself to take a closer look at this investment as both a recreational opportunity and possible lifestyle homestead.
Income details include a potential cash rent of $100 per acre from the current farming tenant and neighbor providing up to $1600 in annual income plus the potential for outstanding timber harvest when the timber market returns.
