Description

Peoples Company is proud to present a fantastic Guthrie County, Iowa acreage opportunity, just outside of Yale, Iowa!

Set amidst the quiet countryside of Central Iowa, this picturesque 12.34-acre acreage offers a rare opportunity to own a beautifully protected rural homestead with exceptional privacy, natural beauty, and long-term potential. Established nearly 60 years ago, the mature evergreen grove surrounding the property creates an incredibly secluded, park-like setting and offers expansive views of the surrounding farmland and unforgettable Iowa sunsets.

At the center of the property sits a well-maintained ranch-style home offering approximately 1,248 square feet of finished living space with three bedrooms upstairs, one non-conforming bedroom in the basement, and one total full bathroom. Built in 1964, the home reflects decades of attentive ownership and care, providing an excellent opportunity for a new owner to move in comfortably while gradually updating, expanding, and personalizing the space over time. For buyers envisioning a future custom home, the acreage also presents an exceptional build site opportunity complete with mature wind protection, established utilities, and a setting that would be nearly impossible to recreate today.

The current owners have operated a landscaping business on the property, and their passion for trees, plantings, and stewardship is evident throughout the acreage. Dozens of mature and growing evergreens, ornamental trees, shrubs, and nursery stock create a truly unique environment filled with texture, color, and privacy. Established garden areas and thoughtfully maintained landscaping provide both beauty and functionality while attracting abundant wildlife and songbirds throughout the seasons.

Behind the home, a peaceful deck overlooks a tranquil water feature and goldfish pond that serves as a natural gathering place for birds and wildlife, creating the perfect setting for quiet mornings, evening sunsets, or entertaining family and friends.

Numerous outbuildings add tremendous versatility and utility to the property, including a detached two-car garage, a 24' x 40' heated shop space, a 56' x 56' traditional barn, a corn crib, and three functional grain bins. Whether you envision workshop space, hobby farming, equipment storage, gardening, or recreational use, this acreage offers flexibility for a wide variety of country lifestyles.

From the inviting driveway and towering evergreen grove to the open lawns, nursery plantings, and scenic rural surroundings, this property captures the essence of peaceful country living. Acreages with this level of mature landscaping, privacy, functionality, and future potential rarely become available in Guthrie County.

Whether you are searching for a quiet rural residence, hobby acreage, recreational retreat, or the ideal setting for your future dream home, this property offers a truly special opportunity in the heart of Central Iowa.
