Mid-century meets calm, yet show stopping. Upon entry you are wowed by natural light and the view of trees on the .5+ acre wooded lot in the heart of Manville Heights. Your main entertaining area boasts an expansive stone fireplace and room to seat dozens + opens to the back porch which is ready for every meal al fresco. Over the past year the home was lovingly renovated and finished with high-end luxury appliances, clean lines, a large island, and 3 tiled bathrooms. 6 steps up to the Primary Suite you will find a soaking tub, walk-in closet and a tranquility to start and end your day. The lower level features a second stone fireplace, family room, 3rd bedroom, office/ non-conforming bedroom (4th) and a bonus room that could be used as a workout room, studio or hobby room. When the trees are full of leaves you may forget you're just a few minutes away from UIHC, Law School, Dental and Art School, Hancher Auditorium, City Park, the River Walk and Downtown Iowa City.
