Wooded acreage provides exceptional privacy! This private Council Bluffs acreage offers a setting that is increasingly hard to find. A long asphalt drive winds through 20.22 acres of mature trees to the spacious all brick ranch home, 3-car attached garage and substantial 40x56 outbuilding.
Inside, refinished wood floors highlight the open main living area with vaulted ceilings & skylight . The spacious 17.5' x 20' primary suite offers a large bath and walk-in closet, with additional bedrooms and living space plus a finished lower level.
Recent improvements include a roof ~2 years old, new asphalt driveway and new water softener/filtration system.
Outside, a shared pond is currently in the works--adding another dimension to an already unique property.
No hunting allowed.
