0000 475th Lane , Chariton, IA 50049(Lucas County)

The farm features a stunning future build site tucked into mature timber with gorgeous north-facing views and easy access just off a quiet dead-end road. The landscape is a diverse blend of hard and soft woods, native grasses, miles of edge habitat, and multiple thick draws that provide outstanding bedding cover. This natural composition, combined with exceptional genetics in the area, supports world-class deer hunting as well as thriving populations of turkeys and pheasants. Surrounding farms add even more habitat continuity, making this a premier recreational property that hunts far larger than the 69 +/- acres.

Two convenient access points enhance usability - one located at the southeast corner leading directly to the building site, and a second on the south end providing entry to the tillable portion. A tillable lease is already in place for the 2026 planting seasons, generating $4,988 annually, with extremely low taxes of just $480 per year. With no HOA or covenants, buyers have the freedom to design the property to their vision, whether that's building a private retreat, expanding recreational opportunities, or holding the land as a secure investment.

This is a rare chance to own a premium southern Iowa property offering unmatched wildlife, recreation, and seclusion - all within minutes of town and major outdoor destinations. Buyers must be pre-approved. Contact the listing agent for more information or to schedule a private showing.
