Description of Property
34.41 Acres with 8.78 Acres of Lakefront — Wide-Open Space and Waterfront Beauty on Lake Buffum! This expansive property offers a rare combination of acreage, privacy, and direct lake access. Launch a boat, fish, or enjoy peaceful waterfront views right from your land. Accessed from Lake Buffum Road via the private Buffum Lake Trail, the property provides a tranquil rural setting with plenty of room to create your vision. Utilities are already in place—including well, septic, and electric service—and an existing mobile home is included, providing immediate use as a residence or base while you make improvements. The land is mostly cleared and fenced, making it ideal for pasture, agricultural operations, or rural living. The property also allows for use as a mobile home park, with the potential to build one home per five acres, offering excellent flexibility for future development or expansion. Located in unincorporated Polk County, this property carries a rural/residential character that may support very low-density residential or agricultural uses (buyer to confirm zoning and land-use details with Polk County Planning & Development). Whether you’re seeking a private lakefront homestead, agricultural retreat, or long-term land investment, this property delivers both flexibility and natural beauty — a rare opportunity on Lake Buffum!
