2 Birchwood Heights Dr., Iowa

Description

Extraordinary home, previously featured with an 8 page article in The Iowan Magazine....and you can see why with the many locally historically incorporated features throughout. Hand hewn barn beams featuring wooden peg and tendon construction, bridge girder beams span the vaulted main level living area, corbels, street pavers and a long list of other decorative accents that seem endless create an amazing example of blending the old with the new. Effective use of the southern exposure that allows walkout living area on the lower level that flows to outdoor entertainment spots and winter sun to heat the main level brick floors adding natural comfort to living areas. Sun lit rooms complimented with skylights and beamed ceilings add to the grandeur and spaciousness of this unique living experience, all situated on 1.32 acres in one of Ottumwa's finest residental resale districts.
