Entire Farm Description:

Ranch & Farm Auctions, a division of Whitetail Properties Real Estate, is pleased to present the sale of 42.93± gross acres located in southern Fremont County, just north of Hamburg, Iowa. This productive tillable tract offers 37.9± FSA tillable acres featuring predominantly Monona silt loam and Napier silt loam soils with a weighted average CSR2 of 73.6, exceeding the Fremont County average. The farm is leased for the 2026 growing season and will be available with open tenancy beginning in 2027, providing flexibility for owner-operators or investors.

 

The property has been thoughtfully improved with well-designed field terraces that help control soil erosion, reduce water runoff, improve moisture retention, and protect the long-term productivity of the farm. These conservation practices not only preserve one of the property's most valuable assets but also contribute to more efficient farming and sustainable land stewardship for years to come.

 

The farm presents an outstanding opportunity for a future rural homesite. An existing water well, electrical service, and fiber optic internet are already available, making the property well-positioned for new construction while minimizing future development costs. The elevated building location offers sweeping views of the surrounding Fremont County countryside, creating an ideal setting for a custom home where productive farmland and panoramic sunsets come together.

 

Situated in Section 9 of Washington Township, approximately 3 miles north of the Missouri state line, this property offers an excellent combination of income-producing farmland, conservation-minded improvements, and future home site development potential. Whether you're a beginning farmer expanding your operation, an investor seeking quality Iowa farmland, or a buyer looking to build a country home while owning productive agricultural land, this is a well-balanced opportunity that is increasingly difficult to find.
