3302 Old Prairie du Chien RD Rd NE, Iowa City, IA 52240
About this home
Can a home be magical? This one is. Unexpected angles, windows and abundant light meet to create a mod and artistic acreage retreat just minutes from downtown Iowa City. The striking wall of massive windows, 20 foot ceiling and floating staircase set the tone that this house is not your average cookie cutter proven by its history of artists and free spirits calling it home. The kitchen features a sprawling waterfall walnut island, oversized hexagonal tile, an induction range and quartz countertop. Tucked off the kitchen is an office with overflow storage and a walkway to a 1700+ sq/ft heated workshop and attached garage. With both a living room lined with bookshelves and a spacious family room, there is room spread out and enjoy whatever your pastimes may be. Upstairs there are four bedrooms and laundry. The primary suite features a newly updated ensuite bathroom. A spiral staircase leads you down to the walkout lower level featuring a guest suite complete with another full bathroom. The extensive deck and pathways encourage a connection to nature on the nearly two acres surrounding the home, and the front courtyard creates an inviting outdoor space to gather. The former kiln shed now serves as an outdoor hot tub room and the hot tub stays!

Welcome to this gorgeous home, which feels a little bit minimalist and a little bit groovy. Some of the most noticeable features are the massive windows, a custom floating staircase (oak rail, brass detailed spindles, and solid 3.5” pine treads) and second spiral staircase, geometric shapes and lines, and innovation when it comes to light and space. Much of this home has been remodeled and it is easy to go back to nature with views from every window and the 20' ceilings in the sunroom. Gather in the fun kitchen, featuring quartz countertops with a custom walnut waterfall island, oversized hexagon-shaped porcelain tiles, stone mosaic backsplash, an induction range, and a microwave/oven combo with convection. With an adjacent mudroom, powder room, an open home office tucked off to the side, and a 1700 sf of garage/heated workshop, it will be easy to keep your busy family organized. The living room and main have engineered oak floors, unending built-in library shelves, connect to a wonderful family room, and 20 ft vaulted ceilings . There are four unique bedrooms and two baths up, plus a laundry room, with plenty of storage and function in every room. Take the spiral staircase down to the guest bedroom and bath, where you can walk out to nearly two acres of private green space, trees, and peacefulness. (Cont'd in agent remarks)
