Wow! One of a kind brick home in the historic Riverbend Neighborhood has gorgeous views of the Des Moines River, complete with your own private dock. You cannot beat the resort feeling of life on the water, right in town. Cuddle up in front of one of the woodburning fireplaces and spot wildlife and river revelers from your living room. Charm and character abound - from the parquet floors in the dining room to the ornate fireplace mantle in the lower living room. Each bedroom has access to its own bathroom, with original colorful tile and fixtures. The Roper stove lends to the original charm of this beauty. The outdoor living is made for entertaining! The expansive back patio faces North to the river and has multiple levels, all accessible from the walkout basement or the side door from the kitchen. The front has a zen garden and expansive lawn. Dont miss this great opportunity! Wonderful Air BNB possibility; close to downtown events, bike trails, and the interstate.
