Description

Scenic 28.65 Acres in Jackson County, Iowa – Creek, Trees & Hard-Surfaced Access

Peoples Company is delighted to offer the perfect blend of recreational retreat and rural charm with this beautiful 28.65-acre surveyed tract located just 1 mile south of Baldwin, Iowa, along the hard-surfaced 50th Avenue. Nestled in the heart of Jackson County, this picturesque property offers exceptional natural amenities, including the meandering Bear Creek, a mix of open pasture and mature timber, and a private, peaceful setting.

Whether you're looking to build your dream home, enjoy a weekend getaway, or invest in a piece of Eastern Iowa countryside, this property delivers. The land provides excellent habitat for wildlife, with gently rolling terrain, scattered hardwoods, and open grassland areas. The tranquil creek adds to the property's appeal for recreation, livestock, or future development.

Future Building Potential:
A premier homesite opportunity lies just beyond Bear Creek. The current owner has completed the research and obtained a professional estimate for the installation of a 90-foot metal single-span bridge across the creek. The Iowa DNR has reviewed the proposed plan and determined that a state Flood Plain Development Permit is not required. This presents a rare opportunity for the next owner to seamlessly execute a build in one of the property’s most desirable and elevated areas.

Conveniently positioned just 10 minutes west of Maquoketa and 10 minutes east of Wyoming, Iowa, this location offers easy access to Highway 64 and nearby towns while maintaining a quiet, secluded atmosphere.

Property Highlights:

  • 28.65 surveyed acres
  • Bear Creek flows through the property

  • Located on hard-surfaced 50th Avenue
  • 1 mile south of Baldwin, Iowa
