Location, quality, and timeless character come together in this beautifully maintained 1900 two-story home. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its original charm, this residence showcases spacious rooms, hardwood floors, and original trim throughout. A two-story addition completed in 2003 expanded the home with a generous, updated kitchen and a private primary bathroom. The finished attic offers a versatile bonus space—ideal as a fifth bedroom, home office, or creative studio. The basement provides additional finished living area with an egress window and half bath. Outdoor living shines with a large rear deck and pool area, perfect for summer entertaining. Ideally located just blocks from Grinnell College, Ahrens Park, and the new school site, this home offers both character and convenience.
