What an opportunity to own a truly versatile Southern Iowa property in Lucas County, Iowa. This is the kind of property that rarely comes available, offering exceptional recreation, income potential, and a peaceful place to call home, all set within one of the most picturesque landscapes the region has to offer.
Rolling ridge tops transition into mature hardwood timber, creating the ideal balance of open ground and cover. The layout naturally supports established travel corridors, with multiple prime locations for food plots, stand sites, and habitat improvements. This is the kind of setting serious outdoorsmen look for: strong populations of white-tailed deer and turkey, minimal road traffic, and the seclusion needed to consistently hold wildlife. Surrounded by hundreds of additional acres of timber, the neighborhood further enhances the property's ability to produce and protect game year after year.
Beyond recreation, the farm offers real-world functionality. Productive alfalfa fields and pasture ground provide opportunities for hay production or livestock grazing. The 45' x 60' shop features concrete floors, overhead doors, and ample workspace, ideal for equipment storage, projects, or operations. A 30' x 60' livestock building adds valuable winter protection and flexibility for your herd.
The ranch-style home, built in 1976, offers 1,296 square feet of living space with a walkout basement and an updated steel roof. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a hunting headquarters, or a weekend retreat, the home provides a solid foundation to make your own.
Properties with this combination of seclusion, diversity, and usability are hard to come by. Whether you're searching for a legacy farm, an income-producing investment, or a private escape, this one delivers.

Lucas County - 43295 190th Ave, Chariton, IA
This 9.75 +/- acre Lucas County property sits in a lovely, quiet country setting, but only ¼ mile from pavement at the Derby Hwy. and 9 miles from Chariton with all major services. 38 miles from Indianola and 56 miles from Des Moines make it easy commute distance for work in those areas. Country living in a spacious home on an acreage with mature oak trees, a nice yard, large garden space, fruit trees, fenced-in area for cattle, horses or goats, a horse barn with concrete floor and hay loft, and 2 modern pole barns with concrete floors. The property would make a fantastic hobby farm.
The two-story farmhouse with basement was originally built in 1930 and has 4,142 sq feet of living space, with 6 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and a half bath. The interior and exterior were both completely re-done within approximately the last 10 years. The main living area is open and spacious.
