2918 NW 76th Avenue

Ankeny, IA 50023

Architecturally Inspired Retreat on 1.5 Acres. Designed by one of the area's top custom builders of the time, Jones and Jones, this Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired home is tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on 1.5 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. Thoughtfully designed for privacy, the primary suite sits in one wing, with additional bedrooms in the opposite wing. The vaulted living room features light shelves, custom built-ins, and a thermostatically controlled Mendota gas fireplace. Just off the living room is a dedicated office that could easily serve as a craft room or library. The chef’s kitchen—updated four years ago—offers custom walnut cabinetry with smart pull-outs, dedicated baking zones, top-tier appliances, filtered water, and elegant lighting from toe-kick to skylights. Hand-blown bubble lights by Minneapolis’ Bicycle Light Co. illuminate the dining space. A large 3-season screened-in porch overlooks a one-third acre prairie and kinetic sculpture by Seattle artist Andrew Carson—a stunning focal point through every season. The finished lower level includes a 2nd kitchen, family room, 2 bedrooms, workshop, and ample storage. A 3-car garage ready for your EV charger and solar panels power the home efficiently—no electric bills in nearly 6 years. This is privacy, nature, and thoughtful design in perfect harmony.
