With 5 bedrooms and 3.75 bathrooms, there’s room to spread out and make the space your own. Multiple living areas include a large family room with built-ins, a formal dining room with a fireplace, and a light-filled sitting room with patio access.

Outside, enjoy wide-open views, patio space, a detached 2+ car garage, and the peace of rural living while remaining a short drive from Newton and Grinnell. Adding even more character, this home once served as a stop along the Underground Railroad, giving the property a unique historical connection....
