Welcome to 2201 California Ave, a well-cared-for Iowa City home loved by the same owner since 2005. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath property offers comfortable living with a 1-stall garage and easy access to the best of the city. You’re just 10 minutes from downtown, and a short walk to Fair Meadows Park—perfect for anyone who wants convenience without giving up a quiet neighborhood feel. This area shines with its walkable sidewalks, bike-friendly routes, nearby transit options, and year-round community events that make Iowa City one of the most engaging places to live. Being in a Big Ten college town adds another layer of energy, whether it’s game days, festivals, or the constant hum of campus life. If you’re looking for a home that’s been cared for and is ready for its next chapter, this one is ready for handoff to someone who wants to enjoy everything Iowa City has to offer.
