Description

In-town acreage, the best of both worlds. Sitting on just under 2.5 acres surrounded by open cornfields, this 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers 4,047 sq ft of beautifully updated living space in the highly sought-after Linn-Mar school district. You get the privacy, space, and views of country living with the convenience of being just minutes from town.

Step inside to find updates throughout the entire home, starting with a brand-new kitchen featuring top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, butcher block counters, cabinets, backsplash, and new sink/ fixtures, ready for everyday living and entertaining. New solid oak hardwood floors run throughout the main level, and a new iron rod staircase adds a custom, architectural touch as you move between levels. New carpet in the basement, new light fixtures, and fresh paint from top to bottom round out the interior. Two solid wood-burning fireplaces—one upstairs and one down—anchor the living spaces with warmth and character.

Five bedrooms and three full bathrooms offer plenty of room to spread out, including a primary suite with his-and-her closets. New tile flooring finishes the laundry room and the back entry bath off the garage, creating a smart, hardworking drop zone for everyday life. The finished basement adds even more flexible living space, freshly updated to match the rest of the home.

The mechanical updates here set this property apart: new insulation throughout the entire home, zoned heating and cooling with a newer furnace, and a whole-house generator for total peace of mind. Solid limestone siding wraps the exterior, durable, timeless, and virtually maintenance free.

Outside, a brand-new black chain link fence encloses the entire backyard, perfect for entertaining, pets, and kids while still taking in sweeping views of surrounding farmland. Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will appreciate the 2-car attached garage with a new opener motor plus a detached 3-car heated and cooled shop, both are wired with 220V outlets. Workshop, storage, studio, project space, you name it.

All of this while staying zoned for Linn-Mar schools and close to Marion’s shopping, dining, and amenities. Acreage living like this, with this many updates already done for you, doesn’t come around often.
