There are homes. Then there are HOMES. 335 Forest Dr SE is a McKay-built Federal/Colonial Revival that was literally on the cover of Better Homes & Gardens in the 1940s — and she has not lost a single ounce of her magic. Original hardwoods in the living room, foyer, dining room & upstairs. Wood-burning fireplace in the formal living room. A full mahogany rec room with the original acoustic ceiling that will make your jaw DROP, plus half bath on main- ahead of it's time. The kitchen has tile floors & butcher block countertops--charming doesn't even cover it. Windows replaced honoring the original time period. All new plumbing. Updated electrical. What about that unfinished basement with tall ceilings? Blank canvas. Pure potential. Massive mature trees. A stone path to the front door. A columned entry that stops traffic. This is Cedar Rapids history you can actually LIVE IN. Homes like this don't come back once they're gone.
