If you’ve been dreaming of a peaceful place to build your forever home, a weekend hunting retreat, or simply a quiet escape from the chaos of daily life—this is it. Located just 1.5 miles from Macksburg and less than an hour from Des Moines, this 10.18-acre gem sits right off the highway for easy access, yet feels miles away from the world. Overlooking the scenic Thompson River bottom, the front portion of the property offers an ideal building site with sweeping views—perfect for a home, cabin, or barndominium. The rest of the land is a timber-rich haven, loaded with deer and turkey. Tucked away in an overlooked travel corridor, this tract has proven to be a hotspot for mature bucks cruising through. Towering trees offer countless treestand options, and there are several spots that could easily be opened up for food plots to enhance your hunting setup. An area farmer is currently working the ~2 tillable acres, providing a small income stream or future planting opportunities of your own. Power is already at the road, making your build process even easier. Properties of this size and quality are rare in Madison County—especially with this kind of location, habitat, and potential. Whether you're looking to hunt, build, or invest, this one checks all the boxes. Don’t miss your chance to own your own slice of southern Iowa paradise.
