Description

Enjoy peace and quiet with exceptional Loess Hills views on this stunning farm near Thurman. If you’ve been looking to move to a perfect property with a beautiful home, heated shop, stocked fishing ponds, and great hunting opportunities out your back door in southwest Iowa, this may be the one.

Have a cup of coffee under the wrap-around front porch to watch the sunrise or enjoy a breathtaking sunset off the back deck with exceptional views of the stocked pond and the timber-covered hills surrounding this property. This is country living at its finest.

The home was fully renovated from top to bottom in 2019 and 2020. The kitchen features timeless white custom cabinetry and stainless appliances. The main floor consists of an open living room with fireplace, dining room, home office, and half bathroom. The second level has the master bedroom with an en suite bathroom, a large walk-in closet, two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a laundry room. The walk-out basement is approximately ¾ finished with a family room, rec/game area, workout room, and plenty of storage.

The custom-built 50’x 40’ pole building compliments the home nicely and is exactly what every rural property needs. The building has 18’ side walls, two 16’ overhead doors, a mezzanine for storage with an oversized staircase, and heated and spray foam insulated. A 12’ covered porch doubles as a carport for larger pickup trucks that won’t fit in a standard-size garage. This might be the perfect shop!

There are two ponds on the property that total close to 3 acres. These ponds are stocked with largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, catfish, walleye, and even trout! Each pond has an automatic fish feeder to keep the populations healthy and growing. On the far west side of the farm, there is an off-grid solar-powered cabin. This is a great place to unplug with your family and friends, and it doubles as a tremendous deer blind/hunting camp in the fall.

If you’ve been waiting to own an amazing farm and home in southwest Iowa, I can’t imagine one that is any more perfect than this. Showings by appointment only with advanced notice. Please call the listing agent to schedule a private showing.
