SOLD $9.5M Highest Priced Sale on Record in Iowa

"Our admiration for Peace Harbor is unmatched. It is more than just an extraordinary home; it’s a masterpiece of incredible craftsmanship, brought to life by local contractors and artists.
What truly sets it apart is the unique story woven into its creation and life. With the support of our Wisconsin office, the reach from Christie's International Real Estate, carefully elevated marketing solutions and artful narration, we were able to connect the home with its future buyer. Working with Tom and his remarkable team has been an absolute honor and pleasure."
