Peaceful county living on 5.34 acres with open Iowa countryside views in every direction, and fiber high-speed internet! Inside are three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a primary bath fully remodeled in 2025. The kitchen offers generous counter space with room for more than one cook. Fireplaces on both the main and lower levels create two separate places to settle in. A nonconforming fourth room serves as an office, den, storage room, or guest room, and converts to a legal bedroom with an egress window. The 40' x56' steel building, built in 2020, is a standout: concrete floor throughout, full electrical service, and fully insulated with spray foam in the in the walls and blown-in above, plus a built in office. Workshop, equipment storage, home business, or room for vehicles and toys, it's built to be used year-round. Outside, the covered deck is made for morning coffee and the patio for evening gatherings. The yard had room to garden, roam, and spread out, and a chicken shed is in place for anyone drawn to the hobby farm lifestyle. A mowed path traces the perimeter, an easy walk with long views across the surrounding fields. A quiet, low-traffic road and real privacy, just 5 minutes to Marshalltown with quick access to Hwy 30 and Hwy 330. Schedule your private showing today!
