The ideal home for the nature lover!

Clad in natural shiplap siding & hidden behind a screen of mature trees which provide privacy from 180th St., this home is perched out of sight, upon a hill & abutting a Story County Nature Preserve (10 acres) and McFarland Park. You'll need to look hard to find this gem as it blends seamlessly into its natural backdrop, but don't give up - it's worth the hunt!

The forested surrounds, vaulted ceilings & a wood burning fireplace offer a romantic sense of 'cabin' life that is hard to find in such a prime location (on the fringe of Ames and on a hardtop).

Make this your lifelong home with capability for one-level living (a bedroom & laundry connections located on the main floor in addition to additional laundry upstairs). The bedrooms are all generous in size with space enough for king size beds.

At the top of the stairs on the 2nd level is a flex room which overlooks the downstairs while providing separation between the other two dedicated bedrooms.

Yes, there is a basement! Again, flexibility is key in this home. Possibly an in-law suite, guest quarters, rec room; with a 2nd kitchen, 3/4 bath and separate access, it can be whatever best serves your lifestyle. Oh, and storage... lots of storage!

We're not done - oversized attached 2-car garage, 2+ acres, new HV/AC... just come and experience what is so hard to sum up in words.
