Our century-old restored Queen Anne-style house is located in the historic Northside district of Iowa City, known as Goosetown - so-named after the Czech farm women who would chase their flocks of geese through the streets when the area was originally settled in the 19th century. The neighborhood is quiet, beautiful, residential, filled with historic homes, only 8 blocks from U.Iowa campus and downtown - within biking and walking distance [parking on campus is an expensive hassle]. Also 1 block from city bus line. Our house is located 2 blocks from the beloved historic K-6 elementary school of Horace Mann, soon-to-be renovated. There are many families and professional couples in the Northside and it has a great neighborhood vibe, with 3 public parks, a sandwich shop [Nodo], and hardware store [Ace] within blocks of our house. We are also not far from the public pool [City Park Pool] and the massive Hickory Hill Park, which provides close connection to nature, walking trails, bird watching, cross-country skiing, picnicking, etc. Backyard is sunny and green, with large vegetable and perennial flower garden, patio, natural gas GRILL [hooked to house gas, not propane], and sandbox. Newly refinished wood floors. Upright piano. Basement [not included in sq. footage] is unfinished and has new furnace, washer, dryer, chest freezer, and radon mitigation [commonly needed in Iowa]. We have lived here almost 15 years and spent the last 4 years restoring the house ourselves and want to find tenants who appreciate historic homes and will be happy here. House is ideal for 2 adults [professional or mature graduate students], or 2 adults/2 children. Non-smokers only. UTILITIES INCLUDED! Tenants do snow removal, mow lawn [mower provided]. UTILITIES INCLUDED! tenant does lawn maintenance, snow removal
