Step inside to a warm, rustic ambiance highlighted by stunning rough-sawn wood floors milled from historic Iowa Hill gold mining district timber - installed by the family - along with matching wood accents and a massive covered deck perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The open layout includes a dedicated laundry room and cozy rock hearth to embrace the wood stove with hand-selected cobble from Indian Creek and shale from the historic Iowa Hill mining tunnels. Outside awaits true country living on 3.42 acres: two ponds (one year round), a seasonal creek, multiple water sources (conventional well, hand-dug well for irrigation, natural spring), mature trees, expansive green lawn, large garden potential, and established outbuildings including small barn with rabbit hutches, storage sheds, and a former personal butcher shop with walk-in refrigeration. A large concrete slab accommodates RV's, horse trailers, or equipment, plus a round pen setup ideal for horses (panels do not convey). Bonus income and caretaking potential from the detached garage with attached rented ADU. Owned propane tanks for both structures, evaporative cooler plus central heat A/C (functional but dated), plus wood heat. This special property-built by family and lovingly lived in for 20 years raising kids, 4H pigs, horses, llamas, goats, and cows-has hosted memorable graduations, campouts, and BBQs around the large burn pit. Far enough for privacy on a quiet dirt road (great for learning to drive or ride horses), yet close enough for quick town runs. Adjacent to railroad tracks for added adventure like dirtbike and ATV riding. Priced to invite your vision-whether as a family homestead, small farm, or horse property.
