270th St, Lot #WP001 , Birmingham, IA 52535(Jefferson County)

This powerful farm in a deer management neighborhood has a dynamite whitetail hunting layout and excellent income. Located south of Fairfield and closer to Birmingham, it's in an area renowned for producing giant whitetails that southeast Iowa is famous for, and you’ll see in the trail cam photos that big deer love this place!About $24,500 is generated annually through three combined sources. The new Conservation Reserve Program contract pays $4,394/yr (10 year contract); cash-rented tillable brings $14,000 this year; and the Conservation Stewardship Program, incentivizing timber stand improvement and prescribed fire, will pay $6,189/yr (5-year contract). This could deliver $125,934 in a five-year period if you kept the cash rent the same. It's rare to find a great income-producing property that hunts dynamically, where you can count on consistent mature bucks.The farm features old pasture thickets of gnarly wildlife cover, plenty of edges, and a creek running from northwest to the southeast. This creek is a travel corridor for deer and a bedding area sanctuary. It also has 15 acres of newly planted tall native grasses, generating income and offering wildlife cover. Additionally, there are 70 acres of good crop ground, with an above-average CSR2 for a hunting farm (over 50% has a rating of 59-74 CSR2). The east side has hardwood timber and farmland coves, with a food plot and some CRP. The southwest corner features a secluded six-acre field planted with white clover, alfalfa, soybeans, and chestnut trees, providing year-round wildlife food. The secluded draw in the northwest has thick timber surrounded by a crop field, creating a textbook bedding area. This farm layout was dynamically set up by a professional land manager, and the trail camera history proves that this is big deer country.There are building sites options, notably near the pond, ideal for a cabin or home with access to rural water and electricity. In addition to the quarter mile of north road frontage, the private driveway that separates the east 35 acres will grant permanent access to the south border, and the property border will be surveyed.
