Almost 40 acres with one-owner occupant potential.
Polk County rules cap this parcel permanently,
making it a true legacy property and one of few
chances to own this much contiguous, private acreage
10 minutes from Ankeny IA on hard surface road. It's
a sanctuary built for the moment you drop your work
bag at the door. There are 3 driveways. Land is alfalfa
ground, rolling Oak/Hickory timber, a creek, pond,
and groomed trails. All this without losing Des Moines
Metro access. The 5 year old custom home was built
to executive standard: walnut cabinetry, an LG
Signature Suite kitchen with 2 dishwashers, 48''range
combining gas, induction and sous vide, and steam
self-cleaning ovens. Systems match the finishes - a 3-
zone gas furnace plus mini splits, whole house
Generac backup, Kinetico water treatment with
reverse osmosis to the kitchen, bar, and refrigerators,
and Starlink internet. A 3-season porch anchors
outdoor living and faces the sunsets. Outbuildings
include a 30x40 insulated shop and 32x56 pole barn.
Owners call it ''peaceful beauty'' and it's quiet enough
to host 15-20 species of birds and lots of wildlife. An
ADU is permitted. Proof of funds is required before
showings are confirmed. All information obtained from seller and public records.
