Enjoy your own private 14 +/- acre timbered retreat, nestled into western Madison County. This is a rare opportunity to own a compact recreational tract close to the Des Moines metro that feels and hunts much larger than 14 acres. Located on a dead-end, level B road, the property offers ultimate privacy away from the hustle and bustle of busy life.
The cozy, 12’x16’, fully insulated cabin comes with a propane heater that is sure to keep you warm on even the coldest days. A loft inside offers additional storage space for deer stands and other hunting equipment. The small deck and porch offer the perfect spot to pull up a chair and relax with friends and family, overlooking your piece of heaven.
The North River runs along the southern and eastern borders, making it a highly traveled corridor for whitetail deer and home to turkeys and other wildlife, offering exceptional hunting opportunities. In addition, the marketable walnut timber allows a potential for future income, all while preserving the natural beauty of the land. These 14 +/- acres are currently enrolled in the Forest Reserve program, offering exempt property taxes.
Conveniently located just 30 miles from West Des Moines, 12 miles southwest of Earlham, and 11 miles northwest of Winterset, this property offers the perfect blend of seclusion while being close to the amenities of the nearby towns. Don't miss the opportunity to own this incredible retreat!
