    What's special

    Location is everything in real estate, and this newly listed acreage exemplifies that principle. Nestled just a 1/2 off gravel and three miles from the town of Remsen, Iowa, this charming property offers the perfect blend of rural living with convenient access to amenities. Though the property has yet to be officially surveyed, preliminary estimates indicate approximately 7 acres, more or less. The 1½-story home has undergone comprehensive renovations over the past 15 years, bringing modern updates and timeless appeal to every corner. The kitchen is a standout feature, showcasing oak cabinetry, a center island, and quality appliances including a refrigerator, gas stove, microwave, and dishwasher, all complemented by an inviting dining area. The main floor includes a spacious master bedroom with ample closet space, a large full bathroom with generous storage, and a well-appointed laundry room with an optional washer and dryer. The heart of the home is the expansive family room, complete with a cozy gas fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming environment. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms and a convenient half bath. The full basement adds even more functionality, featuring a family room, an egress window bedroom, a utility room, a ¾ bathroom, and multiple storage areas. Outbuildings on the property include a detached two-car garage, a machine shed, a livestock barn, and a grain storage bin—ideal for those seeking a hobby farm or extra storage. The home is connected to rural water, and while the septic system has been inspected, the seller is offering a $15,000 allowance toward its replacement. With its ideal location, extensive updates, and well-maintained features, this country home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful acreage living with modern comforts. Properties of this caliber and condition rarely become available on the market.
