One family built their story here. Now it’s your turn. Tucked into 22.6 wooded acres near Miles, Iowa, this distinctive log home offers privacy, character, and over 5,000 square feet of living space. Built and treasured by the current owners, it’s a home where music, laughter, and everyday moments have woven together a lifetime of memories. Featuring 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, the residence blends soaring ceilings, exposed pine beams, skylights, and inviting gathering spaces into a warm lodge atmosphere. The kitchen is ready for entertaining with a large island, stainless-steel countertops, and a 48-inch Viking gas range. A main-floor primary suite includes a private primary bath, a wood stove, and a separate windowed reading room. Two three-season rooms connect you with nature, a loft perch feels high enough to reach for the stars, and a finished bonus room above the garage offers a blank slate for your next inspiration. Geothermal heating and cooling, a standing-seam metal roof, and a 3-car garage add practical appeal. Outside, mature timber and adjoining public land set the stage for outdoor adventures, quiet mornings, and evenings accompanied by nature’s own soundtrack. Imagine a private residence, weekend getaway, corporate retreat, or gathering place where new traditions take shape. Located in eastern Iowa’s scenic Mississippi River corridor, the property offers a peaceful home base for exploring the river towns and recreation of the Iowa–Illinois–Wisconsin region. Dubuque and the Quad Cities provide regional connections, while Madison, Milwaukee, Cedar Rapids, and Chicago broaden the possibilities for a Midwest escape. A home with history, harmony, and room for a new beginning. What will your story be?
