The trim in this home came from trees that stood on this land — harvested, milled, and installed by the people who built it. That detail tells you everything about how this custom ranch was made. Set on 3 private acres in Van Meter, the open main floor is anchored by a custom stone arch framing the kitchen and living room, leathered granite counters, and a 4-car attached garage with in-floor heat. The primary bath features a copper soaking tub set against full slate tile. Step outside to a covered deck overlooking mature timber, a private hot tub deck, and a stone firepit built for gathering. The finished walkout basement adds 10-ft ceilings, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a stone fireplace wall, 3-zone radiant in-floor heat, and sliding glass doors to the yard. The 64x40 steel shop has 16-ft sidewalls, full plumbing, and 3 infrared heaters — built for serious work. 3,450 sq ft total. 3 bedrooms plus 2 non-conforming. No HOA. Animal-friendly acreage. Van Meter schools. Jordan Creek Town Center is 18 minutes away (google maps) — close enough when you need it, easy to forget when you don't.
