Escape to the ultimate private retreat at The Thornwood Estate, an exceptional 9-acre property operating as Iowa Bluff Country Rentals. Nestled in the heart of Lansing’s highly sought-after “God’s Country”, this estate offers a rare combination of scenic bluff views and premier proximity to the Mississippi River, located just 4.5 miles away down a fully surfaced highway. This turnkey estate features two separate, fully furnished dwellings, offering the perfect balance of shared group spaces and private living. The Main House showcases incredible craftsmanship, highlighting custom oak cabinetry and masterfully detailed woodwork throughout. The second level hosts three spacious bedrooms with sweeping nature views, while the third level features two private loft rooms, each outfitted with two twin beds. With additional sleeper sofas in both the first and second-floor living rooms, accommodation options are endless. Just a short walk down the drive sits the Guest Cabin, a beautifully wood-crafted cabin featuring a full kitchen, a cozy living area with a sleeper sofa, and a private loft with a queen bed. Outside, explore your own private walking trails or utilize the specialized amenities built for the modern outdoorsman. The property features a 30-amp RV hook-up alongside two dedicated GFI outlets for charging boat batteries after a day on the river. Whether you are looking for a lucrative short-term rental investment or a private family legacy estate, Thornwood Estate is fully equipped and ready for its next chapter. All tours must be scheduled in advance. Listing Agent is also the property owner.
