Charming Cape Cod home in one of Ames' most desirable locations-prestigious Brookridge Avenue, directly across from Brookside Park. This well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home blends classic
character with modern updates. Enjoy hardwood floors, tiled bath, stainless steel appliances, and a cozy fireplace for cool Iowa evenings. French doors open to a fenced backyard with patio and hot tub,
perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The large 2-car garage plus extra parking pad off the alley adds convenience. Spacious basement provides great storage and potential. From your front steps, take in park views and walk to downtown Ames, Wheatsfield Grocery, Café Diem, and Iowa State University. Loved
and cared for by the same owner for 10 years, who cherished walks through Brookside Park, ISU sporting events, and holiday shopping downtown. Homes in this location are rarely available-don't miss this chance to own a true Brookridge gem. Check out my youtube page to watch full video of home.
