Remarks

Nestled in the hills of the Maquoketa River valley, on the edge of Iowa’s driftless region, lies this breathtaking property, which has been in the same ownership since 1993. The care and pride the owners have taken in maintaining this farm are evident, making it a rare find in today’s market. Situated on the north side of paved Highway E17, northeast of Wyoming and east of Scotch Grove in eastern Jones County, this property offers exceptional features. Adjacent to the Maquoketa River, it’s a certified tree farm recognized by the American Tree Farm System, a testament to its commitment to forest management, wildlife habitat, and responsible stewardship. Strategically planted groves of cedars and pines create essential thermal cover for deer during harsh weather, establishing ideal bedding areas for wildlife. The cabin, tucked just off the road, serves as a welcoming retreat. Its 20 x 34 layout includes a large bedroom with a half bath and a separate room featuring a kitchen, built-in bunk beds, and a shower. Heated with an electric furnace and cooled by a mini-split, the cabin is comfortable year-round. The screened-in section of the back deck offers a great space to relax and enjoy summer evenings. Built on posts to minimize pest issues, the cabin is practical and thoughtfully designed. Nearby, a machine shed with three overhead doors provides ample storage for tractors, a mower, UTV, and all the tools needed to care for the property.
