Property Description
This farm just outside of Albia is a diverse, well-laid-out property that naturally sets up for strategic whitetail hunting. Located in a highly sought-after area of Southern Iowa, it sits in the heart of Monroe County, not far from Albia. This is the kind of property that already has a strong foundation, yet still offers plenty of opportunities for the next owner to enhance it over time. There are two standout features worth noting right away. First, the CRP contract is in its final year, which is a positive for the next owner, as it provides complete flexibility to decide how these tillable acres are utilized moving forward. Second, the timber was historically pastured with cattle, but the cattle were removed last year. The timber is already responding with new growth and will continue to improve as natural regeneration takes hold. On the west side of the farm, there are approximately 20 acres of thick, tall native warm-season grasses currently enrolled in CRP, generating $4,700 annually. From a hunting perspective, this area could be taken to the next level by pulling three to four acres out of re-enrollment to establish a larger grain food plot. The new owner will have options here, including the potential to re-enroll remaining acres into a fresh CRP contract. This side of the farm also features a solid building site and a tin-sided shed suitable for equipment storage. A trail system was also installed along the south side providing access to a proven rut stand.
