Property Description 11700 61st Avenue, Blue Grass, IA, 52726
Extensively renovated and set along the lake in the desirable Village Oaks community, this exceptional property offers a rare blend of refined outdoor living and meticulously updated interiors. Thoughtfully designed for both entertaining and everyday life, the home is set on an acreage intentionally tucked into the landscape, providing privacy while remaining part of an established neighborhood. Outdoor living takes center stage with a large in-ground pool, multiple deck levels, sweeping lake views, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The oversized pool has been fully upgraded with a new liner, heater, pump, and sand filtration system. Deck improvements include a full refinish, new pergola, updated railings and staircase, integrated deck lighting, and solar accent lighting, creating an inviting setting day or night. The exterior reflects significant reinvestment with new siding and gutters, updated exterior lighting, a slate tile front porch, custom entry door, and a newer full-length asphalt driveway featuring professionally installed drainage and expanded guest parking. An invisible pet fence system with separate front and back yard zones adds convenience and peace of mind. Inside, abundant windows flood the home with natural light and frame picturesque lake views that extend into the primary suite. The kitchen serves as the heart of the home with newer quartz countertops, refinished cabinetry, and newer high-end appliances. Additional interior upgrades include new flooring throughout, refreshed bathrooms, newer interior doors and trim, and a functional pantry/mudroom. The finished walkout basement enhances the lake and pool lifestyle and features LifeProof waterproof flooring. The remodeled recreation space is ideal for lower-level living, with plumbing already in place for a future kitchen or wet bar. A dual-zone HVAC system adds comfort and efficiency. Garage and storage options are exceptional. The attached heated three-car garage features professional flaked flooring and attic storage. A separate free-standing shop offers four-plus car capacity and is fully insulated and climate controlled, complete with professional flaked floors, designer wood wall finishes, attic storage, and a 60-gallon air compressor. This is a rare lakefront opportunity where extensive updates, flexible living spaces, and extraordinary garage and storage solutions come together in one remarkable property.
