    Detached garagePrivate finished attic spaceStone patio with pergolaWell-appointed bathroomBright and spacious kitchenNumerous windowsFour lovely bedrooms
    This stately federal-style home on Muscatine is on the market for the first time since 2008 - and the sellers have been loving stewards of this gem, keeping the charm and carefully updating in all areas over the years. Light streams through the numerous windows onto the warm, freshly beautiful hardwood floors throughout the 1st and 2nd levels. The inspiringly bright and spacious kitchen is divided from the dining room by a four-stool breakfast bar. The exquisite living room has built in book shelves, a woodburning fireplace and glass French doors for that continental feeling. The laundry room/mud room leads to a stone patio with pergola and the fully-fenced private back yard. There is a detached garage and a carport space, too. The upper level has a well-appointed bathroom and four lovely bedrooms including one in the private finished attic space. The basement has high ceilings and storage space galore. This home comes with 1/33 ownership of the shared triangle park behind the property! New roof in 2018; new furnace in 2022; Minisplit added to attic in 2019; A/C is +/- 10 years old. New dishwasher; Freshly refinished floors on the main level
