Surrounded by native hardwoods and nestled into the natural contours of the land, this one-owner, custom five-level split home was thoughtfully designed to harmonize with its landscape and bring the outdoors in. From the moment you enter the main foyer, the home welcomes you with warmth and natural light. Clerestory windows, sliding door, and numerous windows showcase stunning views and fill the interior with sunlight. The main entry level features a spacious home office or den, as well as a comfortable formal dining room or living room. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath, plus an expansive 13' x 20' primary suite with a 3/4 en suite bath and a deep walk-in closet. The heart of the home is the main living level, where an open floor plan connects the spacious kitchen (with center island and walk-in pantry) to the dining area and living room featuring a stone hearth and gas fireplace. From here, step out onto the large 248 sq. ft. deck--perfect for relaxing or entertaining while taking in the wooded views to the northwest. A convenient half bath and laundry area complete this level. The lower levels continue to surprise and impress. A second family room and a large storage area provide flexibility, while the finished recreation room, with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, at the base of the home-- ideal for play, hobbies, workshop, or a possible fourth bedroom, opens to a beautifully landscaped patio. Thoughtful updates and upgrades include, interior paint, stylish lighting, a new roof (2023), cement-board siding, radon mitigation, energy-efficient heat pump, Xenia Rural Water, gutter toppers, and a large garden shed. The oversized 24' x 24' garage provides ample space for vehicles, tools, or additional storage. Welcome to 5007 Skycrest Dr., where you'll enjoy the best of both worlds: the peace and beauty of a private rural setting and the convenience of being just minutes from the heart of Ames. Upper, main and lower level square footage as calculated by a licensed appraiser and are believed to be accurate.
