What's special

Main floor bedroomFully updatedNew roof

This is the one ISU buyers wait for. Fully updated, 4 bed / 2 bath, and literally minutes from Iowa State University--you can walk to Campustown, games at Jack Trice Stadium, and everything that makes Ames fun. Inside, it's completely refreshed. The kitchen is straight out of a design magazine with new cabinets, countertops, appliances, and open shelving. Bathrooms are updated, flooring is new, and you've got fresh carpet + hardwoods throughout. Big-ticket items? Already done--new roof, windows, and exterior paint. You'll love the bright living room with fireplace, the main floor bedroom (rare find), and the fenced backyard + deck for grilling, hanging out, or tailgating before kickoff. Perfect for parents buying for students, ISU fans, or anyone wanting a clean, move-in ready home near campus.
