Potential buyers with an affinity for sleek, contemporary, cool white interior design will feel right at home on a quiet street on the outskirts of Adel, where a modern property’s architectural highlights include a dramatic double-flight staircase.
Priced at $1,115,680 and built in 2019 with an angular, slate gray and brick exterior, the 3,817-square-foot, two-story house is listed by Realtor Jay Avant.
“It is a very hot neighborhood. There’s a lot of things going on in Adel. I believe that as time goes on, Adel will become a very highly sought out place.” Avant said.
The southern end of the cul-de-sac at 28803 Frost Lane joins a path connecting with the Raccoon River Valley biking trail. The home is part of a recent development located north of Grand Army of the Republic Highway, a convenient couple of miles from downtown Adel and a 10-minute drive to Waukee.
Once through the main entrance’s French doors, the 17-foot-tall foyer leads to a sparkling white living space, beneath an elaborate chandelier, and facing large sets of floor-to-ceiling windows and the elaborate dual path staircase that rises to the upper level.
On the ground floor, the living area sits a few steps from a bright kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, an attached pantry, a substantial island and a corner space planned for dining with views of the backyard.
The main level primary bedroom is paired with its own walk-in closet space, plus an en suite double vanity bathroom. Upstairs, beyond a landing that could function as a small family lounge, an additional four bedrooms with bathrooms. Those extra areas give the next owner, “room to be creative,” Avant added.
Even more expansion opportunities are possible in the unfinished basement, constructed with 9-foot tall ceilings and 2,143 square feet of unused space waiting to be converted.
Outside, the home offers an attached three-car garage, and a backyard patio with an uncommon second kitchen, already equipped with a grill, wine fridge, storage drawers and its own island seating. “If you’re buying a million-dollar property, you kind of want all the bells and whistles,” Avant said.
Large enough for a growing family, home ownership provides access to the Adel DeSoto Minburn Community School District.
The stark, minimalist design might steer away many traditional home buyers, but the modern interior and exterior has already attracted local attention. “It just takes one specific buyer that’s into that stuff. But we’ve heard some good things so far,” Avant said.
The home is listed at $1,115,680 by Jay Avant of LPT Realty. Contact Avant at 515-867-4360 for more information and a private showing.
