UPDATED ACREAGE ON HARD SURFACE ROAD – A PRIVATE IOWA RETREAT! Dreaming of space to breathe, a slower pace, and the kind of privacy that’s hard to find? Tucked down a long private driveway and surrounded by a peaceful grove of trees, this updated acreage is the escape you've been waiting for—offering true tranquility just minutes from town. Step onto the front deck and take in the wide-open countryside views. Inside, this charming Iowa farmhouse blends rustic character with thoughtful updates throughout. The home features four bedrooms, including one on the main level with direct deck access—perfect for flexible living or guest space. The great room is a showstopper, with soaring ceilings, an upstairs catwalk, and large windows that flood the space with natural light. The primary suite includes vaulted ceilings, beautiful views, a jetted tub, and a separate shower. The current owners were drawn to the unmatched sense of privacy here.
