Robert William Andrew Feller Farmstead, Historic baseball farmstead in Van Meter, United States.

The 40-acre property includes a Tudor Revival house built in 1940 and a red barn from 1886 situated in Dallas County, Iowa.

Bob Feller, who joined the Cleveland Indians at age 17, grew up on this farmstead where his father constructed a baseball field in 1932.

The farmstead reflects the intersection of agricultural heritage and baseball history through its preserved structures and training grounds for a professional athlete.

The property stands as a National Historic Place listing, providing visitors an opportunity to explore the early environment of Baseball Hall of Fame pitcher Bob Feller.

The area between the barn and house served as the training ground where William Feller taught his son Bob the pitching techniques that led to his baseball career.
