Acreages this close to the town of Winterset are extremely hard to find, but finding one engineered to this standard is nearly impossible. This expansive 2,568 sq. ft. homestead on 3 pristine acres features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a large kitchen designed with plenty of storage and a sprawling floor plan for the active country lifestyle. The home features spray foam insulation throughout the walls, roof, and crawl space. There is an expansive feel with vaulted and cathedral ceilings. The outdoor living space is equally impressive, with a back deck wired for a hot tub and a sophisticated lighting system utilizing three-way and four-way switches for effortless control of the perimeter. This is a rare, built-right acreage designed for the buyer who values technical excellence just a mile from town. Mechanical excellence is found in the five-year-old geothermal unit, and five-year-old roof. The property is further protected by a radon mitigation system, a concrete storm cellar, and extensive perimeter tiling that ensures proper drainage away from the home and garage. The exterior is perfectly optimized for a turnkey hobby farm, featuring an acre of fenced pasture and a versatile 32x32 barn equipped with a loft, livestock lean-to, and a 110V RV plug-in. For the enthusiast, the 1,152 sq. ft. 3 stall finished garage is fully insulated with Select 500 spray foam and features a center floor drain, plumbing for a utility tub, and dedicated wiring for electric heat.
