Description

You’ve just found one of the most monumental recreational tracts in Iowa County, Wisconsin. This spellbinding 128.08-acres located between Avoca and Highland is the pinnacle of rural real estate. Land of this magnitude rarely enters the public market. Consider this your one chance to lay claim to your very own Legendary Estate. Whether you’re looking for an ultra-private building site or a gateway to some of the finest deer hunting in Southwest Wisconsin – look no further than this heavenly getaway.

You’ll find this property off of Fairview Road with a gravel driveway running across the center ridge spine. There’s also an entrance via easement from the NW corner of the boundary that grants seamless access into the estate. If two entry points aren’t enough, there’s even road frontage access from the East off of Pine Bluff Road. This provides a multitude of entry and exit points. Without saying, there’s both top and bottom access into the grounds setup magically for deer hunting enthusiasts slipping into proven hunting hotspots and easily navigable via UTV.

The easement access leads to a relic from the past. The ground is graced by an old homestead from once-upon-a-time. An 1800’s farmstead with a barn sports hearty hand-hewn beams for immediate equipment storage. There’s a skeleton of an old house tucked into the treetops with active electricity on-site. The center ridge road leads a quarter mile deep spotlighted by a breathtaking build site with underground electric already in place. There are several miles worth of trail systems meandering throughout the property teeming with hardwood forests and patches of walnut stands. This very tract is truly everything and then some from what the aerial and topography map illustrates – a true gentlemen’s paradise. If you were as excited as I was studying the map, I can assure it’s even better in-person.

You won’t find any trail camera pictures, harvest photos or quite frankly, treestands on this tract. Why you may ask? Well, this property hasn’t been hunted in over 37-years! The land has laid virgin with a secure boundary and perimeter. If you are any bit of a deer nut that knows this particular region, you’ll know exactly what this area is capable of growing. I’ve personally sold thousands of acres in this very neighborhood over the years and Boone & Crockett trophies are not uncommon. The area is a hub for giant whitetail providing some of the very best deer hunting in the neighborhood. You can mark my words on that.

The property consists of roughly 16-acres of open land currently lying fallow with native herbaceous vegetation and the remainder densely wooded composed of 112-acres. Most notably, the terrain is absolute king thanks to nearly a mile-long ridge system. A slurry of prime bedding knobs, benches and valleys warp the land into one of the most amazing stretches of real estate that you’ll ever find. As stated prior, the current open fields are fallow and part of the overall Managed Forest Land-Closed program. However, there may be options to hand select areas for opting out of MFL-Closed areas for food plots or row crop production. Contact Brandon or Joe for MFL Forester info.

Several miles worth of trails meander throughout the bluffs for riding pleasure. One of the trails pass a stunning rock outcrop formation that simply adds to the allure of this escape. There’s numerous deer worthy edges, corners and coves that would make for no-brainier stand sites. A shallow creek bed runs through the Easterly ravine with multiple natural springs bubbling from the sidehills. A wild apple orchard lies on the South Easterly ridgetop bursting with fruit. If you love big white oak trees, you’re in luck. There’re plenty nut trees scattered about. This top-access dreamer will produce both big deer and bold beauty year-after-year

To say that I’m not thrilled about this recreational real estate tract would be a vast understatement. I consider it a once-in-a-generation estate. The current property taxes are $1,355/annually. The land is enrolled in MFL-Closed, which expires at the end of 2029. Now is the time to take advantage of this primo dirt in the heart of whitetail country. The clock is ticking right now!
