About this home
Architect-designed retreat on 2.65 acres of classic Iowa prairie woodland, this residence lives as a private sanctuary shaped by light, landscape and intention. Wide-plank white-washed pine floors & bamboo on the main floor, cork on the walkout level, custom built-ins and floor-to-ceiling glass create a warm, natural palette that echoes the surrounding environment. Strong horizontal lines, deep overhangs and purposeful siting reflect Prairie School influences where architecture and nature are inseparable. Native plantings, winding paths and curated outdoor spaces lead to a dock on a 17-acre lake, with every view and transition feeling like a new discovery. Nearly every room opens to the outdoors, creating a living experience defined by openness and serenity. Built with enduring materials, the home offers abundant storage, thoughtful built-ins and craftsmanship rarely found today. The walkout level features a versatile ensuite bedroom originally designed as a pottery studio, a family room with a custom sleeping wall (one full-size Murphy bed and two twin Murphy beds), an additional bedroom, full bath, storage room, mechanical room, geothermal HVAC, reverse osmosis system, water softener and utility sink. After more than 40 years of careful stewardship by the second owners, 1405 S Deer Road stands as a rare opportunity for those who value architecture, privacy and the quiet luxury of living in harmony with nature....
