Description
Located in Allamakee County Iowa this 117.39+/- acres shall be sold at live and online auction Wednesday, July 27th at 1:00 at the Waukon Banquet Center in Waukon, IA.
This property offers many desirable features, and is an excellent opportunity for many buyer types. The property is located on a very nice, hard surface road with a private drive and offers stunning views of the hill country, especially to the north.
When you enter the property, you are greeted by a new high tinsel fence and a wide-open tillable field. This field consists of 42.73+/- registered cropland acres that are primarily made up of Fayette and Village silt loams currently planted to forage sorghum. A double gate and large field drive have been installed to make operating this land with large equipment easier and more efficient. It also offers a perfect spot to load livestock.
Continuing down the driveway you come to what used to be the homestead which is surrounded by towering pines to the south and primarily mature oaks to the west and north. The buildings have all been removed except for one remaining, 40 x 30 shed, with partial concrete. The building site has the original well, with a very nice concrete livestock waterer and a hydrant as well as electricity onsite. This area recently benefited from a major fiber optic internet installation project and there is a pad at the entrance of the property making fiber a potential for this property (with verification from the local provider).
As you leave the building site to the North or West you are greeted again by mature beautiful hardwood timber primarily consisting of Walnut, huge White and Red Oak, Hickory and Aspen. There are multiple locations throughout the timber that offer open pasture ground and would make for excellent food plot locations with great access. This area of Iowa and especially Allamakee County boast very high deer populations and have a history of producing world class bucks. This property is no exception and is a clean slate to be setup as an excellent hunting farm with good access and a hidden large food plot opportunity on the north point of the current AG field. The timber acres, especially in the main draw, lay very large as this drainage gets deep and turns into a large valley as it continues north boasting beautiful rock outcroppings and what looks to be a small cave asking to be explored.
The remainder of the property continues around to the west and borders Balsam Road, making access to the west side of the property much easier as well as a trip to Spring Grove, MN or Highlandville, IA very convenient. The property is located in close proximity to Decorah and Waukon, IA as well as about 45 minutes to LaCrosse, WI.
Top access, hard surface road, stunning views, private drive, excellent hunting, mature timber, buildable and the list goes on. If you are interested in a rural property that is the perfect size and offers many diverse desirable features in Northeast Iowa this is one to check out.
