Are you tired of ChatGPT listing descriptions saying the house has a "backyard oasis", only to find it has a very basic, boring piece of land with the house? Well, AI isn't writing this, and as a human I can assure you that this Johnston 2 story home has a real backyard oasis! With over half an acre, this well-maintained home is less than 20 years old and sits on an awesome .559-acre lot with a fully fenced backyard (with chickens that can stay)! You'll find maintenance-free wildflowers, raised garden beds, and plenty of extra space for a garden, kids, pets, or whatever you want to do! The large deck with pergola gives you a great spot to relax, grill, or entertain. Inside, the spacious kitchen offers stainless steel appliances and ample cabinet space, with a dining area just off the kitchen. Upstairs you'll find the primary suite along with vaulted ceilings in all of the bedrooms. The finished basement adds even more usable space, including a 4th bedroom and toy room/craft area. There's also an attached 2-car garage to keep the cars warm and snow-free during those Iowa winters. New washing machine in 2025. This home is the definition of country feel with city amenities. Come check it out today!
