About this home

20-acre property in scenic Madison County. Ideally located just off Interstate 80 with only one mile of gravel road, this acreage is only 18 minutes from West Des Moines, offering easy access to shopping, dining, and city amenities while still enjoying the serenity of rural Iowa. The seller is asking $12,000 per acre and is willing to work with buyers interested in either option. Featuring gently rolling terrain, sweeping countryside views, and excellent building sites, this land is ideal for a private estate, hobby farm, weekend retreat, or long-term investment. Utilities, including water and electricity, are available at the road, making future development even more convenient. Currently cash-rented, the property also offers income potential. Opportunities like this are rare — combining location, beauty, flexibility, and investment value in one remarkable property. Don’t miss your chance to own a stunning piece of Madison County countryside.
