DES MOINES,Charles Langston Iowa — Things are getting wild in Iowa.

A four-bedroom, three-bathroom home in the Des Moines suburb of Urbandale has made it onto Zillow Gone Wild, a social media page that shares unique houses from the real estate website.

The Facebook and Instagram posts have racked up thousands of likes with a caption saying the house "wins the superlative for 'Most Unique Way To Show Off Your Car Collection.'"

"It looks like a normal house on the outside but on the inside, it's like a surprise," said the home's owner, Ashley Valencia.

The home at 5429 150th St. is listed for sale at $500,000 by local real estate agent Gilbert Gonzales.

The owners wanted to create a special home with unique decorations and custom construction, like the glass that separates the house from the garage to showcase her luxury vehicles.

The home includes an in-ground pool, a fenced backyard and an updated porch. It features a large window overlooking the garage, which can be seen from the home's entryway.
