Turn-Key Acreage with Modern Updates, Versatile Shop, and Exceptional Outdoor Living—Just North of Indianola
Welcome to 13069 Garst Trail, a scenic 6.01-acre property that offers the best of rural living with thoughtful updates and plenty of room to spread out. Located in the Indianola Community School District and less than half a mile off U.S. Highway 65/69, the property provides quick access to the Des Moines Metro, International Airport, and nearby parks and trails—including Banner Lakes at Summerset State Park.
The ranch-style home offers over 3,000 square feet of finished living space with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, including a walkout lower level with a full suite—perfect for extended family or guests. The main level includes three spacious bedrooms, a primary suite with walk-in closet and private bath, a convenient laundry area, and an updated kitchen and living room with clean, modern finishes. A walk-in pantry and open dining area make daily living easy, while the finished basement adds a second living space, large fourth bedroom, home office area, second laundry setup, and plenty of storage.
Out back, you’ll find space to relax, entertain, and enjoy the outdoors. A 660 sq ft stamped concrete patio with a pergola (2020), plus a large deck connecting the home to the detached two-car garage, provides a great spot for cookouts, gatherings, or quiet evenings. A small greenhouse is ideal for gardening, and the open meadow offers room for watching wildlife, planting food plots, or keeping a few animals.
The 32' x 48' shop is a real highlight—built with concrete floors, electric, rural water, dual barn doors, a service door, and a security system. A large concrete pad in front offers space for working on projects, parking, or equipment storage. Additional outdoor storage near the garage keeps tools and gear organized.
The property features low-maintenance native prairie, mature hardwood trees, and neat landscaping that adds charm without the upkeep. A double driveway with a circular turnaround, along with a new roof (installed in 2021) and numerous updates throughout, enhances the overall appeal. Extensive exterior cameras and doorbells provide security and will stay with the home.
This is a move-in-ready acreage that has been well cared for by a meticulous seller—updated home, quality outbuildings, and room to enjoy the outdoors—all in a great location just north of Indianola.
