Over the hills and through the woods where the only sounds you'll hear are the birds singing and breeze rustling the leaves, sits this amazing acreage waiting for you to call it home. Near what locals call the "Brainard Bottom", this "shouse" has so many features to fall in love with; the gourmet kitchen, relaxing screen porch, large garden area, huge family room, massive attached garage, and wildlife frolicking in the yard. The owners have kept the home in pristine condition and it's been a labor of love. Currently priced with 6 acres to be split from a larger tract, the new owners will have some say in the proposed lot lines. There is also 110 additional wooded acres that can be purchased adjacent to the acreage. This acreage location is what living in Northeast Iowa is all about. I'm already envious of the next owner.
