Nestled among the rolling hills of scenic Van Buren County stands this amazing ‘American classic’ barndominium on a top-shelf southern Iowa hunting farm under the same ownership for 41 years. This impressive building has a 10,560-square-foot footprint and includes living space, an office, and an open, versatile layout. This ‘barn’ is overbuilt—a true masterpiece of craftsmanship—that could be a hunting lodge, high-end shop, home for heavy equipment, event venue, or private residence.  Flanking each side of the living area are two large spaces with 32-foot wide hydro lift doors. The structure is built to last, with extra-thick concrete for holding the heaviest machines, galvanized steel siding, spray foam insulation, and hardwood board-and-batten accents. Utilities include rural water, high-speed fiber internet, and extra electricity to support additional buildings. The ‘barn’ has excellent storage, with ground-level and loft options on both sides to keep tools and other items that can clutter up a shop area hidden. The heavy-duty driveway has a solid rock base and an equipment washing area on the side with a glass overhead door.  The living area includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a family room, and a large kitchen. The beautiful kitchen features marble countertops, quarter-sawn oak cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and a farmhouse sink. Shiplap walls give it a sturdy, timeless feel, and it’s all climate-controlled with a furnace and central air.
