Realize the AMERICAN DREAM of owning LAND and a home. NOT just a lot, with neighbors at arm length, but TEN “10” ACRES, in the mist of other acreages…allowing you to see land as far as the eye can see. When this home was built, times were simpler; people took the time to enjoy the land, sit on the wraparound porch and enjoy the stillness and peace. Smell the clean fresh air. Take in the unobstructed views of the night sky ablaze with stars. If you have not experienced these things, here is your opportunity. The land is beautiful, has fruit trees, a garden, a creek, trees, old barn, & a portion is currently leased & being farmed (can continue to be, if you chose). Not just more grass to mow…BONUS, you get to enjoy the land & make money. Home located on off hard surface road (driveway is very small section of gravel…could easily be paved). Rural water to home. There is also a well (motor is broken), if/when fixed, the water is drinkable, but used for garden & outdoor things. Cellar access from in the home: used for storage and as a tornado shelter. Since home was built, there have been 2 additions done. Main bedroom on the 1st flr w/ 3 additional rooms upstairs. 2 Full baths, 1 on each flr. Work from home in the home office; high speed internet available. Home is solid and livable and the barn is sturdy; like everything that ages, needs some TLC…a bit of a facelift. Easy to build a 2nd home on this acreage, without taking anything away from the beauty of the land.

Directions Information:
Directions: Follow these directions NOT Goole maps, as the land / house is NOT marked correctly. South of Des Moines. Off I35 take exit 47 (CR G64) towards Truro / Peru. Off exit go West (from DSM, take a right off exit). Follow that for about 1.5 miles, until you bear left on a curve. That road becomes Truro Road. Home is on the right side. There are for sale signs, so you have an idea of the 10 acres. If you come to a second curve to the right, you have passed the land and home.
