Lucas County Iowa 20 Acre m/l Hobby Farm w/Modern Ranch Home

This is a great 20 acre Lucas County Hobby Farm acreage with a modern ranch home and outbuildings, quiet and secluded on a dead-end gravel country road but only 10 miles from Chariton and under 60 miles to Des Moines. Acreages like this are always in high demand, and this one is nicer than most with good pasture, stocked fishing pond, beautiful and scenic views, multiple outbuildings and animal buildings, and a 16-year-old, 1,480 sq ft, 3 br, 2 ba modern Ranch home w/metal roof on concrete slab w/2x6 frame construction. There is ceramic floor tile through much of the house, beautiful wood accents throughout, solid core doors, oak kitchen cabinets, new vinyl windows, Central Air Conditioning and Pellet Wood Stove heat, mud room and laundry room, spacious living room area, office space in the master bedroom, and an attached carport. Master bath has a ceramic tile shower, vanity and toilet. 2nd bath has vanity, toilet and shower/tub.

The house has rural water and reliable and fast high speed internet through Windstream. The area is filthy with deer and deer are a constant presence on the property, with turkey and pheasant populations too. The property borders on a large acreage with great deer habitat and deer travel back and forth is heavy. You could have a couple of killer food plot locations on this place. See the gallery for a photo of a giant buck that was killed on this property by a friend of the landowner. 

The property is currently 27 acres m/l but is being sold as 20 acres m/l. Approximately 7 acres will be surveyed off of the southeast corner of the property prior to closing. All maps you see accompanying this listing are drawn in with the *approximate* boundary lines to be sold. Exact boundaries will come from survey prior to closing, and exact legal description to come from Abstract.

The family have raised various animals on the place over time and currently have a few cows. There is nice pasture for grazing that would be great for horses, cattle, goats, sheep, or making hay, and several different animal outbuildings (see photos). This property has been very well maintained and taken care of. See below for a partial list of buildings.
