About this home
Tucked away on 2.17 picturesque acres conveniently located between DeWitt and Dubuque, this exceptional property offers the kind of charm and character that simply cannot be replicated. From the moment you arrive, you'll feel the peace, privacy, and timeless style that sets this property apart from anything else on the market. The beautifully updated farmhouse blends classic warmth with thoughtful modern improvements, featuring gorgeous hardwood floors throughout, four spacious bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a clean and dry basement, and two laundry areas for ultimate convenience. The inviting dining room was made for hosting holidays and gathering around the table of your dreams, while the adorable front porch is the perfect place to enjoy quiet mornings and sunset evenings. Major updates include a new furnace, newly added central AC, a new electrical panel, and an updated roof/windows. The standout feature is the incredible newly built HEATED shop-designed for both work and play. Complete with concrete floors, two massive overhead doors, 16' ceilings, finished quarters (including a private office with its own mini-split system, a half bath, and an unfinished full bath), and an impressive recreation/hangout space, this building offers endless possibilities for business, hobbies, entertaining, or storage. Outside, the 2.17-acre setting feels like your own private retreat with a darling new concrete patio, a garden space, a touch of timber, scenic walking paths, 2 additional small storage sheds, and fresh raspberry bushes. Whether you're looking for room to roam, space to create, or simply a slower pace surrounded by nature, this property delivers a level of tranquility that truly cannot be priced....
