    What's special

    Victorian characterOriginal woodworkDetached three-car garageDetailed trimModern cabinetryPocket doorsAbundant storage
    Best part about this Victorian? You get the charm everyone loves with the modern updates you actually want. The location is what makes Pella living so special, and the exterior is your chance to make it your own. Just steps from Pella’s historic town square, this iconic home offers classic Victorian character with modern updates. The seller is offering a paint credit toward exterior painting, giving the next owner the opportunity to choose their own colors and add a personal touch. Original woodwork, pocket doors, detailed trim, and two beautiful staircases showcase the craftsmanship. The front room flows into the living room, creating two inviting spaces for gathering. Updated kitchen features modern cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances, a gas range with pot filler, and abundant storage. A bonus room near back entry offers flexibility as a reading nook, playroom, office or drop zone. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a walk-in closet, soaking tub, and tiled shower. Two additional bedrooms share a hallway bath. A basement flex space, wraparound porch, mature landscaping, and detached three-car garage complete this home—all within walking distance of Pella’s shops, restaurants, parks, and community events. Some homes are special because of where they are. Some because of how they feel. This one offers both.
