    Back on market no fault to seller or house. Charming Solid Brick Home on an Expansive Double Lot! Welcome to 3225 Mahaska Ave, an immaculately maintained, solid brick home sitting proudly on a massive double lot. This property is an outdoor lover’s dream, boasting a beautifully fenced yard framed by mature trees and lush, perennial gardens. Inside, you'll immediately notice the freshly updated flooring throughout, including a spacious living room and dining area highlighted by gorgeous, refinished hardwood floors. The main level flows seamlessly into an eat-in kitchen equipped with newer, included appliances. While official assessor records list two bedrooms, this home offers incredible flexibility with a massive third bedroom in the partially finished, walk-out lower level—complete with its own private entrance and a cozy covered patio. Ultimate convenience is built into every floor with beautifully updated bathrooms on all three levels, including a private bath dedicated to the expansive upper loft. Enjoy total peace of mind with a newer furnace and water heater. Outside, parking and storage are a breeze with a large two-car garage, an attached carport for a third vehicle, and a massive 22x19 detached outbuilding that makes the perfect garden shed or workshop!
