This secluded Monroe County farm is loaded with diverse habitat, including hardwood timber, bottomland timber, native grasses, tillable acres, and multiple ponds. Situated in the heart of one of the most well-known whitetail counties in all of southern Iowa, this is a prime hunting farm with the ideal setup to intercept the kind of giant bucks the area is famous for. Access further enhances the seclusion. After turning off the gravel road, you cross railroad tracks that naturally limit traffic and result in virtually no road frontage or visibility into the property. As you enter through the gated entrance, you’ll find a level area with electricity and rural water already on site—an excellent location for parking a camper or building a cabin. There is a smaller shed to store tools and hunting equipment as well. This setup allows you to stay on the property without disturbing key hunting areas. Several miscanthus plantings near the entrance provide outstanding screening around the potential campsite. The majority of the timber consists of hardwood hilltops with patchy cedar cover, particularly along the eastern side of the property. Several acres of the farm are enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), contributing both habitat value and dependable income. The property also includes about 12 additional tillable acres that could be maintained as food plots or cash rented for further income potential.

156± acres located in one of the most proven and tightly held whitetail pockets in southern Iowa—just north of Georgetown, west of Hiteman, and minutes from Albia. This highly sought-after area of Monroe County is dominated by large tracts and long-term owners, with acres rarely hitting the open market. The immediate neighborhood is made up of big, mostly contiguous holdings owned by deep-rooted ag families or long-term recreational managers, creating one of the most consistent trophy-producing zones in the region. The farm lays out extremely well with a rolling mix of hay ground, pasture, brush, timbered draws, and elevation changes that naturally move deer across the property. Several ridges and edges tie directly into surrounding timber blocks, forming dependable travel routes throughout the season. It already hunts well, with clear opportunities to improve it further—strategic food plots, native bedding pockets, or brushed-up edges. Operationally, approximately 61 acres of hay ground provide real utility and income, with the balance in pasture and timbered pasture. A creek runs through the farm, offering a reliable resource for livestock and wildlife. The property has good gravel road access and multiple potential building sites for a cabin, home, or farmstead. More acres are available, the property will be sold subject to survey, and the current hay/pasture lease expires March 2026.

Premier 98± acre hunting and recreational property located just southwest of Albia in a proven, low-pressure area known for top-end trophy whitetails. This nearly all-timber tract serves as a key travel corridor connecting large blocks of surrounding habitat including hardwoods, pasture, and crop ground.

115± acre prime hunting and combination farm in one of the most sought-after whitetail neighborhoods in the Midwest, offering strong fundamentals, proven opportunity, and outstanding long-term potential. This Monroe County area is made up of large, mostly contiguous tracts owned by a small group of long-term landowners—many being established family ag operations or highly managed recreational farms with decades of trophy history. The property features rolling terrain, brushy hillsides, pasture edges, and timbered draws that naturally pull deer across the farm as they move between the surrounding bedding and timber blocks. It already hunts well in its rugged, untouched state, and the upside is significant—targeted cleanup, strategic food plots, and added native cover would quickly elevate the overall layout. As a working unit, the farm also holds strong potential for quality pasture and hay production with modest row-crop capability. The old homesite on the north end adds no structural value, but utilities remain, and with cleanup it would make an attractive new home or cabin site overlooking the rolling hills. Additional acres are available, the property will be sold subject to survey, and the current crop/pasture lease runs through March 2026.

This farm just outside of Albia is a diverse, well-laid-out property that naturally sets up for strategic whitetail hunting. Located in a highly sought-after area of Southern Iowa, it sits in the heart of Monroe County, not far from Albia. This is the kind of property that already has a strong foundation, yet still offers plenty of opportunities for the next owner to enhance it over time. There are two standout features worth noting right away. First, the CRP contract is in its final year, which is a positive for the next owner, as it provides complete flexibility to decide how these tillable acres are utilized moving forward. Second, the timber was historically pastured with cattle, but the cattle were removed last year. The timber is already responding with new growth and will continue to improve as natural regeneration takes hold. On the west side of the farm, there are approximately 20 acres of thick, tall native warm-season grasses currently enrolled in CRP, generating $4,700 annually. From a hunting perspective, this area could be taken to the next level by pulling three to four acres out of re-enrollment to establish a larger grain food plot. The new owner will have options here, including the potential to re-enroll remaining acres into a fresh CRP contract. This side of the farm also features a solid building site and a tin-sided shed suitable for equipment storage. A trail system was also installed along the south side providing access to a proven rut stand.

39± acres located just northwest of Albia offering productive ag potential, recreational use and a scenic building site. Smaller tracts like these are in high demand and this property offers a diverse mix offering— manageable size, good income, rolling terrain, beautiful views, great hunting potential and multiple building-site options along a solid gravel road with utilities available near. The farm offers approximately 30 open acres carrying a CSR2 of 42, making it well-suited for row crop, hay, or alfalfa production. The remaining acres provide light cover and modest timber/cover, keeping the maintenance low while still offering edge habitat and a clean layout. The farm will be open for the 2026 crop season, giving a new owner full flexibility moving forward this spring. This is a solid opportunity for a starter farm, recreational tract or addition to a current farm portfolio. The rolling views, the clean open fields, and the ease of access all combine to make this an attractive spot for a new home, cabin, or small hobby farm. Whether someone wants a place to build, a simple investment, or a productive smaller tract close to Albia, this farm has a lot to offer. More acres are available, and the property will be sold subject to survey.
