Nestled on 3 picturesque acres just minutes from WDM, Waukee, and the new S. Grand Prairie Parkway, this historic Gordan-Van Tine home offers a blend of character and modern comfort. Built in 1927 with a thoughtful addition in 2007, this property captures the essence of a bygone era while meeting contemporary needs. The 1 story frame house features 1,797 square feet of living space. On the main floor, you will find a large open kitchen with a pantry, dining room, living room, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, enclosed porch with wood burning stove, and a small mud room. The main level is filled with natural light, featuring original woodwork and Pella replacement windows. The second floor has an additional bedroom and attic storage. A historic 20'x32' building built in 1913, originally the home on the property, has been transformed into a garage and is used as an art studio upstairs. One step inside and you are instantly taken back in time to simpler days. Much has been left unchanged and still has all the original woodwork and it is easy to picture what life was like in the early 1900’s. Both the house and garage had new roofs installed in 2017. The property boasts a manicured park-like setting with fencing on 3 sides. It features multiple flower beds, a large vegetable garden outlined by sunflowers, and various fruit and nut trees. You will enjoy spectacular views of the Madison County countryside, particularly during sunrise from the back deck or on a morning walk along the mowed trail. This is a must-see property so call today to schedule a showing! Sean Stewart (515) 401-2281.
