Some properties impress you. Others make you wonder how you never knew they existed.
Welcome to 2048 Horse Creek Rd--a remarkable 4.9-acre retreat tucked into a secluded valley in Iowa's Loess Hills. Surrounded by mature trees, wildlife and rolling countryside, this is a place that simply feels different.
Originally built in 1900, the home was relocated and rebuilt from the studs up in 1995, then expanded with an approximately 2,000 sq. ft. addition in 2005. Today it offers 6 bedrooms, 5.5 baths, two primary suites, a sunroom and wonderful character throughout.
Outside, nearly five acres, a versatile 36' x 57' outbuilding and an old fishing pond create even more possibilities.
This isn't cookie-cutter country living. It's privacy, character and room to breathe--all hidden among the Loess Hills near Sidney.
