3063 Newport Rd NE, Iowa City, IA 52240

Morning coffee lands differently when you're gazing out the window over open space on your own acreage. Opportunities for land with a house, outbuilding and room for whatever extras you have in mind, within 10 minutes of downtown Iowa City, don't come along very often, let alone at this price point. This ranch style home, sold as a kit by Capp-Homes out of Des Moines, was both built on site and lovingly maintained by the original owners. Now 66 years later, it's on the market for the first time and ready for a new owner who will appreciate all that it has to offer. If sweeping views over rolling Iowa countryside, solid mid-century charm, and a machine shed big enough (36 x 24) to store your RV, boat, or ATVs sounds like your vibe, then you need to look this property. This country rambler offers more than you might expect, including both a main floor living room and additional main floor family room, a sun room that graces the front of the house, and a spacious unfinished basement awaiting your vision for additional living or workshop space. While the gold carpet is a throwback to another era, the seller reports there are oak hardwood floors beneath the carpet of the front living room, hallway and all three bedrooms.
