9027 228th Avenue · Ackworth, IA

Tucked into the rolling hills of Warren County — nearly a mile down a quiet gravel road.

A one-of-a-kind property with the peace, privacy, and wide-open views people dream about. A custom sprawling ranch with everything on one level — wide 36" doorways, a safe room, oversized laundry, smart-home upgrades, and an open kitchen / dining / living space made for gathering.

Outside, it keeps getting better. A 30×40 shop, a 32×56 historic dairy barn with its original hay trolley, pasture views, wildlife, and not a neighbor in sight. Some homes give you a backyard. This one gives you a whole lifestyle — just 25 minutes from downtown Des Moines.
