    What's special

    *SALE PENDING* This home is lovely, with lots of space and character. It sits on a double lot with mature trees, and there is a beautiful large porch across the front of the house. Inside you'll see details like stained glass and intricate woodwork that make this house memorable. The living room has a wood burning fireplace, and the kitchen has a newer dishwasher, gas range, and tile flooring. Upstairs are three big bedrooms and a large full bath. There is a nicely finished family room in the basement that gives this house versatility for relaxing or entertaining. There is a fantastic amount of storage in this home- big closets on both floors and built-in wood shelving in two rooms in the basement. Behind the house is an original carriage house with two stalls and a loft upstairs which can be used for storage, or for the clubhouse of kids' dreams. There is a large gardening shed as well. A big paved area at the back of the property leaves plenty of room for parking or playing. The front and back have been landscaped and there is a wealth of perennial plants including hydrangeas, peonies, lilacs, and lavender- and so much more. Call Becky at (641) 230-0774 to request a showing.
