About This Home
I'm proud to represent the Ann L. Aitchison Revocable Trust in the sale of 172.48 surveyed acres of premier Jones County, Iowa farmland. A designated Century Farm that has remained in the Aitchison family since 1910, this remarkable property combines a rich agricultural legacy with what is arguably one of the highest-quality farmland offerings available in Jones County today. This exceptional farm will be offered as one tract through a TIMED ONLINE-ONLY auction, with bidding ending on Wednesday, September 2, 2026, at 4:00 PM CDT. For more than 115 years, the Aitchison family has carefully stewarded this highly productive tract, creating a rare opportunity for farmers, investors, and landowners to acquire a truly elite agricultural asset. The farm boasts an extraordinary 93.1 CSR2 average across its 170.14 certified cropland acres, a testament to its exceptional productivity and one of the highest ratings found in the region. Dominant soil types include Tama silt loam, Dinsdale silt loam, Colo-Ely complex, and Atterberry silt loam, with less than 5% slopes across virtually the entire property. The combination of elite soils and nearly level topography provides outstanding farming efficiency and long-term productive potential. Further enhancing the property's appeal is its natural drainage system, allowing for excellent water movement without the need for grass waterways and maximizing productive acreage.
