Property Description
If you’re looking for a land investment that generates steady income while offering outdoor enjoyment, this could be the perfect fit. It’s a rare blend near town of income-producing acres, timber, and building site potential on a historic creek in Southeast Iowa. This property is located directly north of Mt. Pleasant Golf and Country Club, just minutes from the conveniences of the charming town in Henry County, Iowa. One of the coolest features of this place is that it has about ¾ of a mile of frontage along Big Creek—a beautiful watershed that drew people to this area a long time ago. Here, you’ll have plenty of fishing or floating opportunities, and just an awesome place to hang out in the creek on a hot summer day. Big Creek is a vital ecosystem for the neighboring wildlife of whitetails, turkeys, and other critters. It has deep roots in the history of Henry County. In the 1800s, its steady flow and fertile valley played a key role in the area’s early development—supporting sawmills, farming, and local settlement. This riparian corridor has always been prime for hunting and fishing, and its legacy lives on in the quiet, preserved beauty that still runs along its banks today. The land has approximately 52 tillable acres, with about 35 in a corn/soybean rotation and 17 in the Conservation Reserve Program. The CRP pays roughly $3,108 per year. The final surveyed border will determine the exact amount of tillable acres, but these numbers should be pretty close.
