    What's special

    Acreage on pavement between Colfax and Prairie City! 5608 Hwy 117 South is a three bedroom, three bath berm home on 2.2 acres. The property is completely fenced with white vinyl fencing. The home totals 3,050 sq. ft. with a gorgeous southern view through floor-to-ceiling windows or out on the front patio. A welcoming entry provides double closets and French doors into the living area. The main level features an eat-in kitchen with gas cooktop, concrete epoxy sealed counters, slate tile backsplash, stainless-look appliances, and slate tile floor that leads into a spacious dining room with a wall of windows. There is a pantry off the kitchen. A large sunken family room with a 25’ vaulted ceiling with wood beams that centers around a brick fireplace (gas) that extends to the ceiling. The main level bedroom has French doors, crown molding, recessed lighting and a walk-in closet (we use this room as an office/den). The main level is completed with a large ¾ bath (shower) and laundry room. There is also a 3-season sun room on the east end of the house. The upper level features a master bedroom with French doors, crown molding, large windows, custom up/down blinds, two large closets, and an ensuite full bath with tile floor, jet tub and shower. The additional upper level bedroom has a walk-in closet and ensuite ¾ bath (shower). There is an oversized 2 car attached garage and a 24 x 32 detached garage/shop. There is also a 24 x 36 shed that could easily be a barn for animals/hobby farm located within the south 1+ acre separately fenced area. The home was built in 1982 and is serviced by rural water, septic system, and natural gas. This home is clean, open, bright, and spacious. The exterior is a mix of vinyl siding and brick. Features include central air conditioning, gas furnace, and electric water heater. This property has a great location on a paved state highway with an easy commute to Des Moines or Pella.
