    What's special

    Mature treesRolling groundScenic pond views
    Opportunity awaits with this rare 10+ acre parcel in the heart of Johnston offering exceptional potential for future development, executive homesites, or a private estate setting. Ideally located just minutes from Johnston High School and surrounded by continued growth and high-end residential development, this property presents a unique investment opportunity in one of Central Iowa’s most desirable communities. The property features a charming 1922 farmhouse, detached garage, and additional outbuilding, providing immediate usability as a livable acreage, rental opportunity, or holding property while future plans are explored. Mature trees, scenic pond views, and rolling ground create a beautiful natural setting rarely found within city convenience. With potential future access from NW 68th Avenue and/or NW 98th Street, the layout and location lend themselves well to potential residential development opportunities including executive acreage lots or an upscale custom home enclave. Opportunities to acquire land of this size and setting within Johnston city limits are increasingly limited. Buyer to verify zoning, development possibilities, utility access, future land use, pond/water feature requirements, and any necessary approvals or restrictions with the City of Johnston, Iowa Department of Natural Resources, and any other applicable governmental or regulatory entities.
