    Sellers will not accept any proposed purchase agreements until June 9th at 7pm. All offers will receive a response by noon on June 10. Fully Renovated & Just Blocks from ISU-A Smart Move for Cyclone Fans, Investors & Low-Maintenance Living Perfectly positioned just west of Iowa State's campus, this beautifully renovated 2 bed, 1 bath home is packed with updates-whether you're looking for a low-hassle place to live, a rental with a current Letter of Compliance, or a long-term housing option for your favorite Cyclone. Nearly every major component has been replaced: new roof, siding, gutters, furnace, most of the plumbing, and electrical updates throughout. Inside, the home feels fresh and modern with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, updated light fixtures, fresh paint, new interior doors, and sharp, timeless finishes. The kitchen is a total standout with sleek quartz countertops, brand-new cabinetry, a tile backsplash, stainless appliances, a deep sink with disposal, and a pantry that adds practical storage. High-end window A/C units have been added to keep things comfortable and efficient year-round. The full bathroom has been completely redone with clean, modern finishes, and both bedrooms offer generous space, great light, and easy layouts. The bright and airy living room, anchored by a large picture window, makes the home feel instantly welcoming. A detached one-car garage provides added storage and parking, and fresh landscaping gives the exterior great curb appeal. You can't forget the adorable front porch. Located on a quiet street just minutes from ISU campus and local favorites, this home offers the kind of flexibility and convenience that's hard to come by. Whether you're a die-hard Cyclone, a parent planning ahead, or an investor eyeing a turnkey rental, this one is worth a closer look. Schedule your showing so you don't miss out!
