Description

Come home and relax at your very own private resort—a wonderful place to relax and enjoy time with friends and family! From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the exceptional quality, thoughtful details, and personality that make this property stand apart. Set on 8.27 beautiful, secluded acres just 3 miles from Waterloo, this custom ranch-style home offers 2,500+ sq. ft. of finished living space, three bedrooms with walk-in closets, three full baths, and a large two-car garage. But the lifestyle here is what truly makes this property special. The custom floor plan was thoughtfully designed to utilize every inch, with large closets and storage areas throughout. Step outside and discover three separate outdoor living spaces, including a pool and deck, relaxing hot tub, fire pit, and sitting area where you can enjoy the peaceful country surroundings. Together, these features create your own private backyard getaway. Add the large workshop/she-shed, garden shed, raised garden beds, and acreage with room for animals or pasture, and you have a property that offers far more than just a beautiful home.
The attention to detail continues throughout this custom floor plan, featuring built-in cabinetry, two fireplaces, quality flooring, vaulted ceilings, and abundant closet space that provide exceptional flexibility and storage. The sunlit, open feel of the main level doesn’t stop there. Head downstairs, where two large windows fill the lower level with natural light and beautiful views of the outdoors—you may have to remind yourself which floor you’re on! A wet bar/kitchenette, two additional bedrooms with walk-in closets, and a full bath make the lower level perfect for multigenerational living, guests, or entertaining. A large storage room provides plenty of space for seasonal decorations while also housing the utility infrastructure. This terrific package offers privacy without being remote and distinction without being overdone, all filled with the kind of attention to detail you simply don’t find in every home. Tenant rights prevail. Six acres are currently leased to a tenant farmer for hay. Please schedule all showings through your agent. Property cannot be viewed from Trout Camp/Cardinal.
