1400 2nd, Iowa

Description

Said to be the oldest wood-frame home in Keosauqua, Bonneyview offers a rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind piece of Iowa history. Perched above the Des Moines River, this lovingly restored property blends historic significance with timeless beauty. The home features an attached 11’9” x 13’9” summer kitchen, a covered back porch overlooking the Des Moines river, and a stone-walled garden with a small orchard boasting pear, apricot, peach, and plum trees. Every detail of Bonneyview has been carefully restored to reflect its original eras—1840, 1856, 1906, and the 1950s—including the masonry, siding, windows, sills, and roofing.
