The open-concept main level has 10 foot ceilings, 8 foot doors, and coffee bean stained oak floors throughout. A spacious master bedroom suite, living room, dining room, kitchen, breakfast room, hidden pantry, mud room, and guest bathroom.
The gourmet ki...
The gourmet kitchen has wrap-around quartz countertops, a huge island with prep sink and seating for six, duel Lazy Susan's, duel dishwashers, a wine rack, spice cabinet, 6 burner range with stainless steel griddle, pot filler above the stove, and double ovens with convection bake and broil. The cabinetry is all soft close with built in lighting and concealed power outlets. The faucets are Delta touch and the appliances are all KitchenAid. The large walk-in hidden pantry has a modular shelving system and tons of storage. On the other side of the pantry, you will find the mud room with a cleaning closet and 6 built-in lockers with cubbies and soft close cabinet doors and access to the garage.
The 2 1/2 car garage has 12 foot ceilings, a handicap-accessible ramp, a mini-split unit, and is completely insulated including the garage door.
The large dining room has seating for 12, a large picture window with tons of natural light, duel chandeliers, and glass doors on both ends with access to the large decks outside. There is also plenty of room for additional furniture such as a buffet or hutch.
The living room is warm, open, and inviting with a stone veneer fireplace, built-in bookcases, a wide front entryway, and ample amounts of natural light.
Off of the living room, you will find the guest bathroom and hallway to the master suite. The master bedroom has lots of windows to let in the morning sun and an ensuite deck for two. It is the perfect spot for a morning cup of coffee or a relaxing place to stargaze in the evening. There is also a two-sided fireplace that opens into the bedroom and master bath.
The master bathroom has a clawfoot cast iron tub, his and her sinks with cabinetry, a walk-in shower with dual shower heads, and a built-in bench. The water closet has a toilet with a heated seat and a multifunction bidet.
The large walk-in master closet was professionally designed with a built-in dresser and a stacked speed queen washer and dryer. The closet floors are reinforced with extra joists to support the weight of extra safes.
Making your way to the second level of the home you will find the extra wide staircase with oak flooring and oak handrail. The upstairs features 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a large linen closet, and a laundry room with its own speed queen washer and dryer. Each bedroom has a walk-in closet with built-in shelves and a professionally installed closet system. The bathrooms are both jack and jill bathrooms with dual vanities connecting 2 of the bedrooms. One of the bedrooms has been set up as a guest room with a handmade queen-size murphy bed. There are also two secret passages that connect two adjacent bedrooms perfect for letting the kid's imagination run wild or providing extra storage space if needed.
The finished basement has 10 foot ceilings and concrete-colored floors to match the flooring on the two other levels. There are 6 separate rooms in the basement in addition to a bathroom and utility room. One of the rooms has been set up for a homeschooling room with large east-facing windows. The other rooms are used for a large playroom, reading, and library room, family gathering room, exercise room, and a theater room/home office with south-facing egress windows.
Outside of the home, you will find yourself on a beautiful hilltop location overlooking the gorgeous Warren County landscape. Sitting on almost 21 net acres, the property is an excellent mix of diverse slightly rolling terrain. There is nice fencing on the majority of the property and could easily be set up as a hobby farm with livestock including horses and chickens. There is a timber draw running through the property and a small stream. There is a nice location in the draw that could be dammed up for a beautiful pond to be constructed. The wildlife sign is plentiful and the homeowners frequently see deer on the property. The southeast portion of the property has terraces installed and has been farmed in the past and is currently being used for hay production. There are nice cedar draws on the west and north perimeter and the driveway has been lined with Poplar seedlings. There is also a 2,000 square foot garden west of the house that provides the homeowners with an abundant amount of vegetables.
The property is located just a few miles east of New Virginia and only 35 minutes from West Des Moines. With easy paved access to Interstate 35, the property is perfect for the commuter with an easy drive to Des Moines as well as Indianola and Osceola.
