Pride of ownership shows in this very clean, well kept, updated home. Located on 5.5 acres, this acreage has it all. The home was built in 1919 and has the original woodwork. Lots of updates, including newer high efficiency furnace/AC, water heater, roof, and carpet. There is 1 bedroom, 1/2 bath, living room, dining room and kitchen on the main level with 4 bedrooms upstairs and a full bath. The upstairs bathroom was remodeled in 2005. The basement is not finished, but is dry and has good utility for storage, utilities, and usable space. There are numerous outbuildings, including a finished heated garage, 85’ x 52’ machine shed, 50' x 22' machine shed, and 5 grain bins. There are also some other smaller outbuildings. A 1,056 sq. ft. mobile home is also located on the acreage. This would make a great guest house, home for family members needing care, or rental unit, or it could be removed. The grounds are well manicured with many plantings and an organic garden south of the home. The home sets well off the road in a treed setting and is in “ready to move in” condition. Possession negotiable.

This is a good opportunity to purchase a smaller tract of central Iowa land. This farm is mostly CRP with a creek running through the center of the farm. The creek as well as the south and east property lines are all lined with trees, making this property quite picturesque and abundant with wildlife. The CRP receives $110/acre or $4,048 annually and expires in 2014. The west boundary is bordered by R70 and is a potential building site for residential/commercial if the building pad is out of the 100-year flood plain and approved by the County. Access to the east field is through a locked entrance on the west side of the property, just north of the creek. This truly is a unique property.

Good quality highly tillable farm that would serve well both the owner-operated farm or investor . The farm would produce well and thus cash rent well plus provide good depreciation. Well located on a county blacktop road SE of Humeston. The tillable cropland consists of seven fields divided by waterways. The two larger tracts consist of 147.14 acres and 131.32 acres. This farm has over 12,700 feet of terraces and 18,300 feet of tile installed in the last several years through the EQIP program. There are a couple small ponds with the larger one to the north stocked and well protected. There are not may farms ever available that are ready to go with all the conservation practices in place at this price. This farm has been in the Kost family for many years and the care is evident that this family was concerned about preserving their family farm.
