Acreage Alert with Paved Access! With 3.29 acres just off the corner of R38 and E18, this 1900s farmhouse offers peaceful country living with quick access to Story City, Roland, Gilbert, and Ames—all without a single mile of gravel road.
This 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offers just under 1,800 sq ft of living space, with some updates and additions over the years. A 4-season porch with hot tub adds extra space to relax year-round, and a newer addition intended as a large mudroom, is already framed—ready for the next owner to bring their vision to life.
Outside, the property features a 2-car detached garage plus 4 outbuildings, including a large concrete-floor arch building, a historic wooden barn, a corn crib barn, and an additional single-car shed—offering endless possibilities for storage, hobby farming, or workshop space.
New Septic being installed by Watson Plumbing.
If you're looking for a slice of country life with paved roads, beautiful views, and the opportunity to customize a historic home, this one is a must-see!
