7.75 Acres of Wooded ground in the heart of Johnston with a pond! This private wooded acreage offers
a great opportunity for someone to sub-divide acreage parcels into executive acreage homesites, keep the property together and build your dream home on it, or keep it as is and enjoy the current 1973 home w/ attached 2-car garage and 2 outbuildings as they are. The property features 2 entrances, 1 gravel driveway off of NW 54th Ave & 1 paved driveway off of Carter Ct. There is a large pond behind the house, a 24X36 Heated shop w/ attached 14X36 shed, & 26X40 pole barn, all on a secluded wooded property that feels like it's out in the country but is located just minutes away from everything the City of Johnston offers. The current house offers 2,400 finished SF, 2 beds, 2.5 baths, 2 fireplaces, main floor laundry, 2-car attached garage, basement living room w/ wet bar & fireplace, walk-out basement door, 1 non-confirming bedroom, & 3/4 bath. The exterior has 2 decks & a concrete patio out the walk-out basement door w/ amazing views overlooking the pond. The property is currently taxed in Polk County and not annexed into the City of Johnston. If buyer desires to sub-divide or develop this ground they must verify zoning, utility access, & restrictions with the city of Johnston and/or Polk County.
Home being sold "as in" condition.
