A spacious ranch-style home offering over 5,500 square feet of living space on a rare 1.57-acre lot located on the northwest edge of town. This property combines the convenience of in-town living with the privacy, scenery, and outdoor space that are often difficult to find. The main level features an open-concept design highlighted by a beautiful kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and generous workspace. The adjoining dining area showcases a wood-burning fireplace, while the living room features a large built-in entertainment center and a gas fireplace, creating warm and inviting gathering spaces throughout the home. The spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a brand-new custom shower. Two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the main floor, while new flooring adds a fresh, updated feel. The fully finished walkout basement provides exceptional additional living space, including 2 bedrooms, a full bathroom, office/bonus room, laundry area, storage room, multiple recreation spaces, and a large family room with a third fireplace. Whether you need room for entertaining, hobbies, working from home, or simply spreading out, this lower level offers outstanding flexibility. Outside, you’ll find a beautifully landscaped backyard featuring a stunning water feature, mature trees, and abundant wildlife. The peaceful setting provides a country-like atmosphere while remaining within Cherokee city limits. A hot tub currently located on the property will be removed by the sellers, but the hookups will remain for the new owner. The oversized attached garage features two overhead doors while offering enough interior space to accommodate up to three vehicles. Additional off-street parking and the expansive lot provide even more room to enjoy. All of this makes 1200 Iowa Street a unique opportunity to own one of Cherokee’s most impressive residential properties.
