Private Climbing Hill Home with Original Character & Major Recent Improvements
Tucked away on a private, mature lot in Climbing Hill, this character-filled home offers approximately 1,870 square feet of living space, a detached two-car garage, and the craftsmanship and architectural details that are increasingly difficult to find in newer homes.
Step inside and the home’s original character immediately stands out. Beautiful hardwood floors, substantial original woodwork, solid wood doors, built-in cabinetry, leaded and decorative glass, and an impressive original staircase give the home warmth and personality throughout. Large windows provide abundant natural light, while a wood-burning stove and classic clawfoot tub add even more character.
The main level offers a large kitchen, dining room, living room, den, and full bathroom, providing plenty of space and flexibility. Upstairs you’ll find two bedrooms with generous walk-in closets, an additional room that has historically been used as a bedroom and features built-in storage, and a second bathroom.
While the interior retains many of its original and older finishes, several of the home’s major big-ticket improvements have already been completed:
* HVAC and central air — 2022
* New septic system — 2023
* Front porch renovation — 2023
* New roof — 2024
* New siding — 2024
* Select replacement windows — 2024
Outside, the property really sets itself apart. The private lot, mature trees and landscaping create a secluded setting, while the large covered front porch provides a great place to enjoy it. A detached two-car garage provides additional parking and storage.
This isn’t a recently remodeled, cookie-cutter home. It is an opportunity for someone who appreciates the craftsmanship and character of an older house, while benefiting from several significant recent improvements and having the freedom to update the remaining finishes to their own taste.
Located in the Woodbury Central Community School District, with convenient access to Sloan, Sergeant Bluff and Sioux City. Open-enrollment opportunities may also be available through neighboring districts; buyers should verify current eligibility and availability directly with the applicable school district.
20 Deer Run Trail offers privacy, space, original craftsmanship and major recent improvements — ready for its next owner to make it their own.

What the owner loves about this home
What we love most about this home is its privacy and character. The mature trees and landscaping make the property feel surprisingly secluded, while you’re still within an easy drive by to Sioux City (20m), Sergeant Bluff (15m), Sloan (15m) and Moville (10m).
Inside, it’s the craftsmanship that makes the house special. The original hardwood floors, beautiful woodwork, built-ins, leaded and decorative glass, solid wood doors and incredible staircase give it a warmth that’s difficult to recreate in a newer home. The large windows bring in tons of natural light, and the covered front porch is a wonderful place to sit and enjoy the quiet setting.
It’s an older home with a personality all its own, and with major improvements like the roof, siding, HVAC/central air, septic system and front porch already completed, the next owner has a great opportunity to preserve what makes the house special while making the remaining spaces their own.
