### Agent Description
Escape to the peace and quiet of the country with this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home on 1 acre just outside of Vail, Iowa. Built into a hill, the home offers unique character with its cabin-like feel, vaulted ceilings, a lofted upper story, and a bonus room perfect for an office or den. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living areas create a spacious main floor for gathering. A new roof was installed in 2024, though cosmetic updates will be needed to restore the interior after previous tenants. Outside, enjoy the serenity of having no neighbors within a quarter mile, frequent wildlife sightings, and the beauty of nature all around. An oversized 1 stall attached garage (22x24) adds convenience to this peaceful country property full of potential. SOLD AS IS
