Description

Welcome to this stunning acreage nestled in rural Homestead, one of the storied Amana Colonies. This beautiful property offers nearly 5 acres of breathtaking views, just minutes from the Amana nature trail. Easy access to I-80 and Hwy’s 6 & 151. Entertain or unwind in your above-ground saltwater pool, surrounded by an inviting deck perfect for sunny Iowa summers. The large kitchen with 2 pantries flows into a generous dining area. All upstairs windows, as well as those in the main-level bump out, have been replaced with energy-efficient triple-pane, providing exceptional insulation and quiet. Brand new carpet! New siding and garage doors were installed late 2023. The oversized three-stall garage is heated and includes two exterior 30-amp RV outlets—perfect for hosting memory-making campouts. A propane hookup has been added to accommodate a buyer’s portable generator, ensuring peace of mind during Iowa’s changing seasons. Seasonal gardener’s sink in garage, garden rainwater collection tanks, and compost bins. This is more than just a home—it’s a staycation, a peaceful retreat with history, character, and room to grow. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the front porch while overlooking your land or throwing summer pool parties, this unique property is the perfect blend of rural serenity and convenient access to everyday amenities.
