Peoples Company is proud to present the former Limerock Ranch, a 78.5-acre m/l cattle and livestock property, for sale via online only auction. Located at 3251 Brandon Diagonal Boulevard, this well-improved farm offers a complete, move-in-ready cattle operation paired with an efficient and private rural residence. Positioned just a quarter mile off the blacktop and one mile from I-380, the property provides quick access to Waterloo in approximately 20 minutes and Cedar Rapids in about 25 minutes, all while maintaining the quiet charm of small-town Iowa. Its location makes it ideal for a new or expanding livestock operation, an equestrian setup, or a picturesque hobby farm within close reach of major metropolitan areas. The 4-bedroom, 2-bath berm home, built in 1998, is thoughtfully tucked into a hillside and surrounded by timber, offering both privacy and natural energy efficiency. The residence features an open kitchen and living area, in-floor heat, a wood burner, a no-step entry, and an attached two-car garage. The bathrooms were remodeled in 2015, and a new water heater was installed in 2023. Outside, the home is complemented by a large vegetable garden, landscaped flower beds, and a decorative pond, creating a peaceful and functional rural living environment. The farm’s livestock infrastructure is extensive and exceptionally well-maintained. Improvements include a 28’ x 96’ open-front cattle shed constructed in 2017, 96’ x 105’ concrete cattle yards, a 93’ x 150’ bunker silo, 8,000-gallon liquid feed storage tanks, six Cobett waterers, and well-designed paddocked pastures with excellent fencing throughout. A heated shop with office space and a lofted living area adds valuable versatility for farm operations or additional workspace. The entire building site and paddock area sits in a beautiful secluded valley that helps reduce the effects of wind and elements. The farm includes approximately 52.29 FSA-certified tillable acres with an average CSR2 of 77. The primary soil type is Kenyon loam, which carries a CSR2 rating of 90 and is known for its exceptional productivity. The tillable acres were recently pattern tiled, significantly enhancing drainage and improving feed production potential for the operation. Consistent manure application across the property has contributed to strong soil fertility and long-term productivity. Located within the Independence Community School District, with nearby options in Vinton, Center Point, and La Porte City, this property offers both convenience and rural tranquility. It is well suited for cattle producers, hobby farmers, equestrian buyers, or anyone seeking efficient country living with easy access to surrounding cities. Opportunities to purchase a fully operational cattle facility requiring no additional improvements are increasingly rare, making this property a standout offering in today’s market. This farm will be offered through an ONLINE ONLY auction. Bidding is currently LIVE and will remain open until Thursday, June 25th, 2026, at 2:00 PM Central Time Zone (CDT).
