Located northeast of Newton, Iowa, in Jasper County, this classic brick home offers more than 4,000 square feet of living space on 7.97 acres, creating the ideal setting for country living. The property includes two versatile outbuildings: an 80' x 40' metal building with a concrete floor and a 60' x 30' building with a concrete floor, electricity, and overhead doors with openers, ideal for storage, workshops, vehicles, or equipment.
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. The kitchen features an island, gas cooktop, double ovens, stainless steel appliances, and a laundry room thoughtfully positioned for convenience.
Upstairs offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a spacious primary suite with marble-look tile floors, double vanity, soaking tub, porcelain shower, and walk-in closet. The lower level adds an egress bedroom and flexible space for guests, hobbies, or a home office.
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.
