22803 Quinlan Ave, Dallas Center, IA 50063

Here's the secret nobody tells you about acreage life...10 acres is a LOT of mowing. That's why 1.5 acres is the sweet spot. You get the peaceful mornings, room to breathe, beautiful Iowa sunsets, space for a garden, bonfires with friends, and privacy from your neighbors without spending every weekend on a mower! Situated on 1.5 acres on pavement just outside Dallas Center, this thoughtfully cared-for 1900 farmhouse blends timeless character with updates today's lifestyle demands. Instead of taking on an old farmhouse full of projects, you'll enjoy meaningful improvements including a new septic system (2023), updated siding and windows, remodeled bathrooms, new water heater (2024), and a composite deck added in 2025. Nearly 2,100 square feet offers comfortable everyday living with spacious gathering areas, an eat-in kitchen, dining room with French doors leading to the deck, a cozy office nook, four bedrooms, and 1.5 baths. Outside, enjoy your morning coffee overlooking open countryside, gather with friends in the grain bin gazebo, plant the garden you've always wanted, or simply appreciate having space without feeling isolated. The heated and cooled garage with attached shed adds even more flexibility for hobbies, projects, or storage. Located in the sought-after DCG School District just minutes from schools, shopping, dining, parks, and the Raccoon River Valley Trail, this home offers the country lifestyle you've been dreaming about without giving up the convenience.
