Above ground poolSeparate showerHalf an acreExtraordinary walk-in closetMature surroundingsSweeping cornfield viewsExpansive deck

Tucked at the end of a quiet street in the small unincorporated town of Watkins, Iowa, this beautifully maintained 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath raised ranch offers the kind of privacy that is nearly impossible to find. Sitting on half an acre with sweeping cornfield views as far as the eye can see, this property delivers a lifestyle as much as a home. The spacious living room and large kitchen with abundant cabinetry make everyday living comfortable and functional. Two bedrooms and a full bath are positioned opposite the nearly 600 sq ft primary suite — a true retreat featuring an extraordinary walk-in closet, jetted tub, separate shower, and spacious vanity. A slider opens to an expansive deck built to surround the above ground pool, all overlooking open farmland. The oversized two-stall garage provides ample storage and parking. With no through traffic, mature surroundings, and rare end-of-street seclusion, this is small town Iowa living at its absolute finest. Welcome home!
