Jackson County
Three-Bedroom Home With Hobby Farm Potential
23915 Highway 64, Lot#WP001 Maquoketa, IA 52060
Description
This property, just a short drive East of Maquoketa has all the components needed to live your county lifestyle. Having enough acres to spread your wings located where this is located is wonderful. You can easily put up a fence and start your hobby farm. You could have as big of a garden as you can dream of, plus many more options. What I cannot get past is all of the trees on the property give you seclusion and a sound barrier. I could hardly hear the cars on Highway 64 as the house was tucked back to the edge of the woods. Wonderful flower and herb gardens are sprinkled all over this wonderful property. A gazebo and two pergolas give you ample options as to where you would like to relax. Existing raised beds and additional planer options will allow you to expand the selection of plants you want to grow easily.
The outbuildings are great! The large 40 x 40 insulated shop has a 10,000LB lift. With 16-foot sidewalls, you can get as many toys as you want inside. There is a radiant heater, LP tank, water and internet to the shop, and a window air conditioner in the area you would like to sit down and relax. A complete concrete floor and a loft upstairs give you even more storage. Three Insulated garage doors finish completing the package. The smaller “garden shed” is fully functional. The 24 X26 building has water and underground power to it. You can easily store utility tractors, two-wheelers, side by sides, or whatever else you can think of. It has a garage door on one side and an access door on the other. I think you can also use it for a chicken coupe/ small livestock barn and so forth. Most of the building has a concrete floor; three is a small section rocked.
The house has stunning views of the timber to the south! The unique floor plan can suit a wide variety of needs! On the main floor are three bedrooms, with a lot of closet space and a full bathroom and laundry room. Currently, the sellers use 2 of their rooms for offices/workout rooms, and the other is the master bedroom and the guest bedroom. The large windows on the north side of the house above the entryway let in a lot of natural light captured in one of the offices, the laundry room, and the hallway.
As you descend the hardwood stairs to the lower walkout level, you will see it is finished! The recently renovated kitchen, updated appliances, den, tv room, and relaxation area are all here. Windows mainly give you a beautiful view of your backyard and the timber beyond. Here you can find the seclusion!
The previous owners converted the attached garage to a huge bonus room. Complete with a built-in bar and its LP heater when you want to host friends and family! You will have to see it to appreciate the size of the space!
This one will not be around for a long time,
