Description:
This listing offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own the iconic farm of former owner and renowned whitetail hunter Bill Winke. An arena for managing trophy whitetails, the land has a vast and diverse layout with an incredible history of giant deer. With its beautiful setting of the home and outbuildings, stand locations dialed into the perfect spots, and a location in the super neighborhood of trophy-managed farms near Albia, this is a turnkey opportunity that represents the pinnacle of whitetail hunting experience.
Over the years, we’ve seen hundreds of hunts on Bill’s semi-live content with Midwest Whitetail and some truly epic moments of monster deer walking around in the daylight. The next owner of this farm will step into setups that have taken thousands of hours to perfect and enjoy creating new memories at famous stands like Death Ridge and Old Reliable, Open Gate, and the Skinny Plot. It spans across two tracts: the West Place-a gnarly piece with the best stand on the farm; and the Home Place-a massive expanse of hardwoods and creek bottoms, secluded fields, and the perfectly placed home that overlooks a big pond.
The house has a private setting and an impressive view from the large living room windows. Here, you’ll be able to watch the wildlife every morning and evening, feeling in the middle of a sanctuary as the deer and turkeys move freely in the daytime. There are two outbuildings-one has a bathroom and laundry for a scent-free hunting setup-and the other is for housing equipment. Specific details on the land and buildings are in the bullet points below.
With a deep history documented over the years, there’s no question that the Winke Farm is one of the most legendary in southern Iowa to go one-on-one with North America’s favorite big game animal. Showings are by appointment only for financially pre-qualified buyers. Contact the listing agent, Ben Harshyne, and The Southeast Iowa Land Team with Whitetail Properties Real Estate.
