Appanoose County – Hunting, Income & Building Potential

Description

Appanoose County 158+/- Acres – Hunting, Income & Building Potential

Located just north of Centerville, Iowa, on the east side of Highway 5, this 159+/- acre farm offers excellent hunting, row crop income, and prime building sites. This area offers beautiful rolling hills and a multitude of recreational opportunities within minutes of town or Rathbun Lake.

Diverse Habitat & Proven Hunting

This farm features a mix of mature creek-bottom timber, oak and hickory ridges to the south, and thick, overgrown pasture to the north, creating ideal south-facing bedding areas. Hunting pressure has been minimal, with only one buck harvested in 2024—a mid-170s-class deer. Two newly constructed creek crossings provide better access and expand options for food plots and stand locations.

Income-Producing Farmland & Timber

The farm currently generates $12,250 annually from 70 acres of cash-rented cropland at $175/acre. Additional tillable acres are available for farming but have been left in wildlife cover for habitat enhancement. The mature timber stand, including walnut, white oak, and bur oak, offers future income potential through timber harvesting.

Long-Term Solar Lease Opportunity

The current owner has received an offer for a long-term solar lease, including a three-year due diligence period before commitment. Details available upon request.

Ideal for Hunting, Investment & Building

With utilities available, this farm offers excellent building sites along with strong hunting and income potential. Additionally, an existing open front shed is currently utilized for equipment storage with great renovation opportunities. Whether you’re looking for a premier hunting property, an income-producing farm, or a great location to build, this tract is priced to sell.
