Located in one of Monroe County’s premier hunting neighborhoods, near Lovilia, this 37.90+/- acre east tract offers a strong combination of CRP income, established wildlife habitat, and rural building potential. With a larger portion of the tract in CRP, this property provides an attractive income stream while also creating excellent bedding, nesting cover, and edge habitat for wildlife. The east tract includes approximately 29 acres enrolled in CRP, paying $207.38 per acre, for an estimated annual income of $6,014.02 through 2032. CRP and FSA information is approximate and subject to verification by the Monroe County FSA office. This tract is highlighted by a productive mix of native warm-season grasses, including Big Bluestem, Indian Grass, and Switchgrass, along with forbs and native wildflowers. The heavier CRP component gives this farm strong habitat value, creating security cover and bedding areas that can hold deer and other wildlife throughout the season. In addition to the recreational and income potential, the east tract offers appealing buildable site potential for a cabin, weekend retreat, hunting basecamp, or future country home, subject to county zoning and utility availability. With road access, dependable CRP income, quality habitat, and a location in a proven whitetail neighborhood, this east tract is a great opportunity to own a manageable, income-producing recreational property in southern Iowa. Adjoining west tract also available.
Directions: From Lovilla, head west on 120th Street until you reach 565 Trail. Turn south on 565 Trail and continue until you come to 147th Avenue. Turn west on 147th Avenue and follow it a short distance. The property will be on the north side of the road. Look for the real estate signs.
