    You’ll love the space, convenience, and outdoor amenities this 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch in Altoona has to offer. A partial brick façade, mature trees and landscaping, and a covered front porch create a welcoming first impression. Inside, the entryway features hardwood flooring and opens to a spacious living room filled with natural light from a large bank of windows. Just off the living room is a roomy eat-in kitchen with hardwood floors, laminate countertops, and stainless steel appliances that are included. Step outside from the kitchen to enjoy a backyard enclosed by a wood privacy fence. The outdoor space includes a large concrete patio, utility shed, and an above-ground swimming pool—perfect for enjoying warm Iowa days at home. The pool's sand filtration system was replaced less than a year ago, and a new salt generator has recently been installed. The backyard also provides access to the detached 2-car garage. The main level includes three nicely sized bedrooms and a full bathroom with a tub/shower combination. Downstairs, you’ll find even more usable living space, including a large carpeted family room and a versatile bonus room that could serve as a non-conforming bedroom, home office, workout space, music room, or whatever best fits your needs. A second bathroom with a step-in shower is also located on this level, along with an unfinished laundry and storage area. The washer and dryer are included. Conveniently located with quick access to shopping, dining, the Altoona Aquatic Park, Prairie Meadows, and more, this home offers plenty of space and features in a location that makes getting around easy.
