Encircled in a barrier of NO TRESPASSING signs, locked gates and 5 strand barbwire fence the sale of this property has unknowingly been a whitetail hunters dream 30 years in the making. 6 and 7 year old shrub trees block the opening of gates on the property because they have not been used in so long, deer trails 8-12 inches deep criss cross the rugged terrain where unpressured whitetails have roamed with no human interference for generations. Never have I come across a prime piece of whitetail real estate that could hold up the claims that it had never been hunted in 30 years. The owner of the property, a veterinarian, has never given anybody permission to hunt and does not hunt himself. They have enjoyed the wildlife from a distance using spotting scopes to watch them only. Every hunting season year after year the seller has stood guard over what has become a free ranging whitetail sanctuary chasing off every potential hunter he saw. Well aware of the effects his property has on deer hunters the seller has made plans to relocate and decided it's time to turn the property over to the very people that have admired it from the outside for many years. The virgin Loess Hills timber include massive cottonwood and oak trees, and and a great crop of ready to harvest walnut. Deep in the valley on the south end of the property a 7 acre fully stocked pond sits nestled in the timber, the ultimate in privacy complete with primitive campsites. A stream runs the entire length of the property and feeds the pond. The thick timbered valley's tie all of it together creating the finest Iowa whitetail habitat you'll be able to find anywhere. An old cabin site already has electricity brought in, perfect for a new cabin! Nearly 50 acres of the property used to be tilled but was converted to pasture and today could be converted back to production along with about 50 more acres for income or wildlife uses. The seller will also consider selling the home and outbuilding with an additional 65 acres of the property if a buyer is interested. Just take one look at this property and it will prove itself, it is already covered in rubs and scrapes, and deer scattered in every direction when we photographed the property. This is a true dream property!
