    What's special

    Covered deckLarge walkout patioExtensive professional landscapingAutomatic blindsSurround sound speakers
    Tucked into the rolling hills of Prairie Valley on 0.86 acres in the Gilbert School District, this 2021 walkout ranch offers over 3,100 finished sq. ft., a NW-facing backyard framed by healthy pine trees, and incredible sunset views for miles. With no future backyard neighbors, this property truly captures the peace and privacy of rural living while remaining just minutes from Ames and Gilbert. Adding to the neighborhood's appeal, Prairie Valley also features a wildlife refuge with trails perfect for nature walks. Inside, thoughtful trim details and elevated finishes shine throughout. Beautiful beams accent the grand entry and living room, where a centered electric fireplace is flanked by custom built-ins. The impressive kitchen features a custom island, spacious pantry with wood shelving, and an oversized slider leading to the covered west-facing deck. The main-level primary suite has a tiled shower with a glass door and a large walk in closet. A second bedroom, full bath, mudroom with a custom locker system, and main-floor laundry with a utility sink complete the main level. The finished walkout lower level was made for entertaining, featuring a large entertainment room with daylight windows and a show stopping wet bar with a full-size fridge, wine fridge, wood backsplash, and open shelving. Two additional bedrooms, a 3/4 bath, and a versatile non-conforming fifth bedroom ideal for guests, a fitness room, or a home office provide incredible flexibility. A second laundry hookup in the spacious utility/storage room adds even more convenience. Surround sound speakers, automatic blinds, irrigation, a whole-house humidifier, an epoxied 3-car garage floor w/ $3500 Storewall garage wall organization system, extensive professional landscaping, a Amish built 12x14 storage shed, covered deck, and large walkout patio are just a few of the extras that set this home apart. Private. Peaceful. Thoughtfully finished and meticulously cared for. This Prairie Valley standout is truly something special; call today for your showing!
