Property Description

Perched atop a scenic hilltop, this 5± acre build site offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding countryside with stunning sunrises and sunsets. Located 6 miles north of Stuart, 10 miles south of Panora, and within 30 minutes of West Des Moines, the site provides an ideal balance of rural seclusion and convenience. Situated on a dead-end, county-maintained gravel road with minimal traffic, the property offers privacy and tranquility. No future development is planned for the surrounding land, helping preserve the open views and rural character. Bordered by timber on the north and west and established in warm-season native grasses and forbs, the property provides a blend of open space, natural screening, and wildlife habitat. This tract is build-ready. The acreage has been bought out of its CRP contract, allowing immediate development. A survey has been completed and recorded, an existing driveway provides access, and the property has passed a perc test and is approved for a conventional septic system. Power and fiber internet are available at the road, with rural water nearby on Walnut Trail. The rolling topography offers excellent future pond potential. Whether you envision a custom home, walkout ranch, or barndo, this acreage offers scenic views, modern utilities, and long-term privacy. Protective covenants are in place to preserve the residential nature and rural character of the area. No HOA, bring your own builder. Seller is a licensed IA real estate agent.
