If you’ve been looking for that perfect mix of space, location, and freedom, this 61± acre property between Carlisle and Hartford is worth a look. Sitting right off paved Highway 5, it’s an easy drive but still gives you the rural feel. The land itself has a great set up with rolling terrain, wide-open views, and a nice mix of timber and pasture. There’s an active creek running through it that adds to the character and draws in plenty of wildlife like deer, turkey, and even bobcats. Whether you’re thinking about building your dream home (or multiple homes), starting a hobby farm, or running a business, you’ve got options here. With two separate access points from the west and north, the layout makes it easy to get creative. It’s currently zoned ag but does have potential for commercial use. Even better, there are no covenants or HOA, so you can truly make it your own and bring your animals with you. Utilities are along 200th Ave and Highway 5, and you’re located in the Carlisle Community School District. Plus, it’s only about 20 minutes to Des Moines International Airport and 25 minutes to Red Rock Lake, so you’re never too far from everything you need. Properties like this don’t come around often, especially with this kind of flexibility and location. Visit our website for more photos and information.
