Description
Nestled on 1.21 acres of serene rural beauty in Sioux County, this charming 2-bedroom, 1.25-bath home offers the perfect blend of cozy comfort and expansive outdoor space just 1 mile from Hwy 18 and Northwest Iowa Community College for effortless commutes and campus access, east of Sheldon.
Recently upgraded with brand-new appliances including a full kitchen suite (stove, fridge, microwave, dishwasher), washer/dryer, window AC unit, and water softener this move-in-ready gem ensures hassle-free living, while fresh carpet in the breezeway and main-floor laundry add everyday convenience. New water heater (electric) installed in November 2025.
The attached double garage and unfinished basement (not included in the Zillow square footage #) provide ample storage for your hobbies or gear, complemented by a newly installed septic system for peace of mind. Pet-friendly for one small companion (under 25 lbs), (additional negotiable) it includes landlord perks like mowing, basic snow removal, and quarterly pest control, making it an idyllic retreat for those craving sunrises, gardening potential, and a true sense of home on the Iowa plains. Well - lit at night with a light on the yard, and on east end of driveway. 1 year lease preferred, but negotiable for the right situation.
Note: Landlord considers the home as 1.25 bath. Zillow doesn't have a 1.25 setting. In addition to the new bathroom on the main floor, there is a new toilet / stall in the basement, and running water, but no sink / shower in the basement currently.
