About This Lot

As of March 2018

This property is perfect for family, horses, hobby farmers, hunters and nature lovers. This tranquil 14.5 acre retreat offers beautiful sunsets and wildlife nearly every day.

The main level features a spacious kitchen, formal dining, living room with fireplace, first floor laundry and an apartment with living room, bedroom, bath, and laundry. The upper level features a huge master bedroom with bath and walk-in closet. There are several outbuildings including a 30x40 pole building, drive thru corn bin, and chicken coop. Also included is an energy saving WoodMaster 4400 heavy duty wood furnace which is double-plumbed to heat larger homes or home-garage combinations, including hot water. This property is a quick commute to the Des Moines, Altoona, and Newton areas!
