133.5 Acres with CRP Income, Hunting, and Build Sites | Wapello County, Iowa
Located near Blakesburg in Wapello County, Iowa, this 133.5-acre property offers a strong combination of hunting, recreation, dependable income, productive tillable ground, and future building potential. The farm consists of approximately 52.46 certified FSA acres and offers a nearly 50/50 mix of timber and open ground, creating an ideal balance for wildlife habitat and income production.
East-side access is a major advantage, allowing efficient entry on many predominant fall and winter winds without disturbing the heart of the farm.

Approximately 16.28 tillable acres are pattern tiled, feature a CSR2 rating of 78.2, and have consistently produced a strong crop. These acres are open for the 2027 crop season and could potentially generate approximately $3,663 to $4,070 annually in cash rent at an estimated $225 to $250 per acre. Combined with the existing CRP income, the property has potential annual income of approximately $9,392 to $9,799, depending on the cash-rent arrangement established by the next owner.
Little Soap Creek runs through the south side of the property, creating an excellent travel corridor and natural funnel for whitetails. Thick cover, productive food sources, timber, and strategic access provide the ingredients for a highly effective recreational and hunting property. Multiple potential building sites and utilities available along the road provide flexibility for a permanent residence, hunting cabin, or weekend retreat.
