Property Description

Private Lakefront acreage in the historic Badger Creek Watershed district. Surrounded by idyllic rolling fields, this homestead offers a glimpse into Iowa's most natural state, a wildlife habitat with 20 acres of land, lake, and forest. At the heart of the property sits a serene lake; anglers can expect largemouth bass, crappie, bluegill, and more. Hunters will appreciate the forest land, ideal for bow or rifle hunting, with opportunities for trophy bucks. The grounds are adorned with native prairie plants, bluebells, bleeding hearts, and mature trees, creating a breathtaking backdrop throughout the seasons and daily opportunities to observe deer, coyotes, bobcats, and a variety of birds and waterfowl. The estate features two homes: A modern barndo (1,566 sq ft living, 1,224 sq ft heated garage with warehouse racking) with a primary suite, lofted 2-bedroom flex space, and two baths, built in 2018 with Amish cherry cabinetry, quartz countertops, new appliances, fiber-optic, and an enclosed patio space. The fully remodeled A-Frame cabin (1,269 sq ft), updated in 2024, offers a lofted bedroom, one bath, new foundation, HVAC, plumbing, pine car siding, windows, Trex deck, and a finished walkout lower level, sold fully furnished. This oasis is ideal for those who appreciate nature, privacy, and conservation. Amenities include a 12x20-ft insulated heated shed with electric (2026), rural water, 5G, dock space, and a fire pit. All within 15 minutes of schools, stores, and shopping.
