There’s a lot to love about life at 718 Decorah Avenue—starting with the space to live, gather, garden, and enjoy the best of Decorah right outside your door. Set on a generous corner lot, this 5-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an abundance of living space inside, complemented by thoughtful updates to the kitchen and baths and the convenience of main-floor laundry. Outside is where this property really comes to life: sip your morning coffee from the welcoming front porch, gather with friends on the rear Trex deck and brick patio, or spend an afternoon tending the extensive gardens alongside the resident bees. Fresh landscaping and a partially fenced yard add to the setting, with plenty of room to play, entertain, or simply unwind. When you’re ready to venture out, Trout Run Trail, parks, hiking and biking, and the heart of downtown Decorah are all close at hand. Comfortable, spacious, and connected to so much of what makes Decorah special, this is a home designed to be lived in and enjoyed.
