ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This stunning 150-acre property in Madison County, Iowa, owned by the Fredrick (Fritz) James Family, is a rare gem steeped in natural beauty and history. The gated drive opens to a striking early 1900s timber frame barn, relocated and restored by Mr. Fritz James, offering a charming, rustic welcome. As you continue through the property, you’re greeted by vibrant prairie grass teeming with songbirds, followed by century-old oaks that frame the centerpiece—a custom-built loft-style home. The home’s flagstone walkway leads to breathtaking views of rolling hills from the deck. Inside, exposed timber beams and floor-to-ceiling windows merge rustic charm with modern finishes. The warm wood floors and white walls complement the peaceful, natural surroundings. Meticulously restored over 25 years, the property features extensive Timber Stand Improvement projects, Native Prairie plantings, and controlled burns, ensuring it mirrors its pre-settlement beauty. Remarkably, about 10 acres remain untouched remnant prairie, with plans for a Conservation Easement to protect it for future generations. Recreational opportunities abound, with access to over 1,000 acres of land in the nearby Clanton Creek Conservation area. Now, after decades of care, the James family is ready to pass this remarkable property on to a new steward, hoping they will continue the legacy of preservation that Mr. Fritz James passionately upheld.
