About this home
For the first time in more than a century, one of the Driftless Region's most remarkable legacy recreational estates is being offered for sale. Perched atop the scenic rolling hills of northeast Iowa, this extraordinary Century Farm combines breathtaking panoramic views, comfortable country living, premier wildlife habitat, and dependable annual income into one truly exceptional offering. Generations of thoughtful stewardship are evident throughout this one-of-a-kind property, where every acre has been carefully improved with conservation, recreation, and lasting enjoyment in mind. The extensive habitat improvements represent years of planning and investment that would be difficult and costly to replicate today. The land is what truly sets this property apart. Miles of groomed trails wind through managed timber, native grass prairies, secluded food plots, and diverse wildlife habitat, allowing you to explore every corner of the property by foot or UTV. Thousands of trees and shrubs have been strategically planted throughout the years, complemented by three established native grass plantings, a thriving chestnut orchard, numerous fruit trees, and extensive annual Timber Stand Improvement (TSI). A spring-fed, year-round creek, approximately 2.5 acres of established food plots, and meticulously developed habitat have created an exceptional recreational property with a proven history of producing outstanding whitetails, exceptional turkey hunting, and an impressive resident pheasant population. Two Grizzly tower blinds and two Millennium tree stands are already in place and ready for the next owner. Beyond its recreational appeal, the property generates over $7,000 in annual CRP income, providing dependable revenue while preserving and enhancing the outstanding habitat that makes this farm so special. Located within the highly sought-after Decorah School District, the property is only minutes from world-class trout fishing and just one-half mile from the renowned Coon Creek State Land, offering convenient access to thousands of additional public hunting and recreational acres. Perfectly positioned to capture spectacular sunsets and sweeping countryside views, the custom home offers warm, comfortable living with an open-concept floor plan, spacious primary suite, and inviting living spaces designed to embrace the surrounding landscape. Whether enjoying your morning coffee on the covered porch or entertaining family and friends after a day outdoors, the setting is simply unmatched. Complementing the home is a 40' × 40' fully finished and heated shop featuring two oversized overhead doors, epoxy floors, in-floor heat, a heated office or hunting room, custom bar with restroom, decorative concrete finishes, mini-split air conditioning, a covered patio, and an expansive concrete approach—providing exceptional space for equipment, hobbies, entertaining, or storing recreational vehicles. Properties of this caliber seldom become available, and opportunities to own a Century Farm with this combination of scenic beauty, recreational quality, and thoughtful improvements are exceptionally rare. Whether your passion is habitat management, exceptional whitetail hunting, upland birds, hiking miles of private trails, or simply enjoying peaceful country living with unforgettable views, this remarkable property offers a lifestyle that is nearly impossible to replicate. This is far more than an acreage—it is a legacy property where more than a century of history, stewardship, and investment have created one of the Driftless Region's truly exceptional offerings....
