Property Description
Quiet valley retreat along Little Willow Creek
Hidden in a valley along Little Willow Creek, this Driftless Region property is the kind of place where road noise fades away, replaced by birdsong and the gentle sound of moving water. Take a deep breath and enjoy the quiet.
Wooded bluffs and dramatic rock outcroppings rise on either side, creating a natural backdrop for a home designed to embrace its surroundings.
The approach sets the tone. Native prairie and wildflower meadows line both sides of the driveway, bursting with color when in bloom. By the time you reach the house, it already feels like you've arrived somewhere special.
Inside, large windows and skylights fill the home with natural light. The spacious kitchen and open living area form the heart of the home, while a Jotul wood stove adds warmth and character. The primary suite includes a private bath with soaking tub and direct access to a deck overlooking the valley. The single-level floor plan includes three additional bedrooms, a reading nook play area, laundry room, and 1.5 bathrooms.
A detached two-car garage and workshop with its own bathroom offer flexibility for projects, storage, a studio, or potential future guest quarters.
Behind the home, two wooded ridges rise above the valley and support regular wildlife activity, including the area's abundant white-tailed deer. A natural spring emerges from the hillside, winding its way toward the creek below. Trout habitat improvements, including installed trout cribs, enhance the stream and create cover for fish. Spend a few moments along the water, and you just might spot one.
