Here is a wonderful opportunity to build your forever home on a beautiful and diverse timbered 9+/- acre tract just outside of Runnells, IA. This raw piece of ground has a secluded and peaceful feel and sets up beautifully for a walkout home overlooking the 2+ acre stocked pond. There is a cedar lined windbreak on the west side of the property and a manicured trail that brings you right to the heart of the property. Walking through the property you will notice an abundance of wildlife sign including deer tracks, rubs, and scrapes as well as turkey feathers and dusting spots. The pond offers excellent waterfowl hunting and numerous groups of teal and mallards were seen taking flight while touring the property. The fishing is also very good and the pond is stocked with bass, black crappie, and panfish. The property is located just 11 miles SE of Pleasant Hill and only 17 miles east of the Des Moines metro and is in the SEP school district. Just a mile south of the property you will find Red Rock Wildlife Management Area and beautiful views of the Des Moines River flyway and mouth of Lake Red Rock. To the north you will be able to explore Neal Smith National Wildlife Refuge and see Bison, Grassland Birds, Tallgrass prairie, Oak Savanna, and Sedge Meadow. Rural water, electricity, and fiber optic is all closely available. If you are looking for a place with that country feel yet with the convince of city life, this is a must see!
