5258 25th Ave , Norwalk, IA 50211(Warren County)

Badger creek winds through the entire property offering over 1 miles of frontage.

Mature timber and thick brush follow the creek and throughout many of the drainages,

offering fantastic habitat for deer, turkey and other wildlife. Over 20 acres of the farm is

enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), which helps filter water runoff into

the creek and provides additional nesting cover. The crops, in addition to the annual

income, provide as a food source for the wildlife. The neighboring properties to the East

and West are a mix of CRP, tree plantings, marshes, thick timber and brush, all of which

provide phenomenal upland, deer, turkey, and waterfowl habitat as well. Along the North

boundary of this property, Dubuque St / 20th Ave is gated off and is a private access road

useable only by the owners of the adjacent properties. This road, along with the main

road along 25th Ave create great access opportunities for those looking for hunting

opportunities.

The Cumming area, just 2 miles north of this property, has been the focus of new

developments for those looking for a stronger connection to the rural lifestyle, while still

having the modern conveniences of the city close by. The growth and attention on the

area has and will continue to drive up the long-term value of this property. In addition to

the long-term value, there is immediate, annual income as well.

Approximately 218 acres of the Farm is FSA tillable and has a CSR2 rating of 57.4. 198

acres of the 218 is split between corn and soybean production. The crops are rotated on

an annual basis, and for 2021, the farm lease is open for a new tenant to take over. The

current owner / operator is offering a leaseback, at $175/acre, or $34,650/year, but this

is optional to the new owner. The balance of the farmable fields (20.2 acres) is enrolled

in the CP25 practice of the CRP program, which pays $4,040/year in annual income,

guaranteed through 2027. Combined, the annual gross income is approximately

$38,690 per year.

The beautiful three bedroom, one bathroom house has some of the best views in

Warren County with incredible seclusion. The private driveway leads back to the house,

large metal building with awning, and a large wooden barn. A few updates to the house

include a new asphalt shingle roof in 2018 along with a new furnace and water heater in 2014. Acreages of this size and condition are hard to come by anywhere, but paring that

with the proximity to all of the amenities that Des Moines offers makes this property

second to none.

With an annual farm income and appreciation that the area is seeing given the

development interest around the Cumming / Norwalk exit, this property is not only great

for immediate enjoyment, but also a good long-term investment opportunity.

In todays environment, more and more people are moving out of the city to their own

slice of heaven.
