When you want beyond the frills to a safe, solid and well-constructed home, consider this custom 5 Bedroom/3 Bath Ranch built in 2018. The owners gave thoughtful consideration to the planning of this house and what's most important to them: safety and durability. Safety features: SimpliSafe security system as well as window alarms in the lower level. There's a "Secure Room" in the basement - reinforced, has 1" drywall, pus a fire-safe door. It's useful as a storm shelter but especially to store a gun safe or perhaps a special collection that requires a higher-level of safekeeping. When you live in Marion, a water-softener is a necessity but the owner created a whole other level of water conditioning with a 3-tier custom system in addition to the water softener. A passive radon system is already installed and the sump has a 1-way valve. There's a 50-gallon gas water heater, plus there's something that's rare but so helpful in a newer home: a whole-house humidifier. What else is important to this owner? An over-size 3.5 stall garage AND a concrete parking pad alongside the garage for a boat or camper. You don't have to store your recreational vehicle off-site with extra fees, the perfect spot is right at home! With this home, you get to enjoy the outdoors more! A covered patio is more functional for them - instead of the hot sun blazing down, grill and relax in the shade, or else it provides cover from rain. There's a large, level lot which is perfect for a fire pit or kids' play set. The care and emphasis on durability and functionality doesn't stop there. Rich, welcoming LVP flooring is used throughout the main level. Got pets? Kids? Don't worry about scratches or chips with this flooring - it holds up beautifully. The kitchen has white quartz counter tops; they're crisp and clean but also tough and practical with no maintenance. Subway tile is simple and clean for the backsplash. Your family will spend time gathered at the island and the cook will enjoy the kitchen. A gas range, walk-in pantry with wood shelving (instead of annoying wire shelving), and a deep undermount composite sink that makes clean-up of pans, cookie sheets, refrigerator shelves and more so easy. There are some nice "floor plan" features as well. Of course it has an open layout, but each of the 5 bedrooms has its own walk-in closet (and window converings). That's a nice touch and something seldom found! Throughout the home, the owners continued the painted white trim and craftsman-style doors. The master bedroom is separate from the 2 other bedrooms, and the laundry room is located close by the master for convenience. Right off the garage is the laundry room and handy drop zone for coats and backpacks. Being in one of the top-rated Iowa schools is certainly a bonus as well. The elementary school - Echo Hills, is within walking distance, or just a quick drive down the street. You'll find a tray ceiling in the living room and gas fireplace as the focal point. One of the favorite features of the sellers is the 4-Seasons Room that they've used as an office/den. What family can't use a little space these days? If you love working from home but need to be able to close the doors to concentrate then this is your spot! It's a sunny, open place that has a lot of options. Downstairs you'll find a large family room area as well as the 3rd full bath and 2 bedrooms (for a total of 5). With such a large finished space the options are limitless. The sellers plan to leave the family room couch and love seat. To round out what a great home this is, there's access to fishing at the neighborhood pond. It's private, for the development families only. Interested in? Let the planning that the sellers invested in this home benefit your family!
