Affordable Armstrong living with room to grow! If you’ve been waiting for homeownership to actually feel within reach, this is it! This CUTE 2-bedroom, 1 1/4 bath HOME isn’t pretending to be perfect—but it’s move-in ready, has surprisingly GREAT updates, and is absolutely packed with potential. A long list of improvements have been tackled, including a NEW metal roof on main house, newer kitchen and appliances, bathroom work, extensive plumbing and electrical updates, NEW seamless gutters, power garage door opener added, NEW sanitary line to the curb, and NEW water shut-off in the yard. And there’s more than meets the average eye: the walk-up attic offers exciting potential for additional living space. The wraparound deck with ramp adds outdoor living and accessibility. Sitting on a spacious corner lot with an oversized 2-car garage, there’s room to enjoy, improve and call it YOUR HOME. Armstrong offers the kind of small-town Iowa lifestyle buyers are searching for—a quieter pace, a close-knit community and everyday conveniences without the big-city price tag.

AFFORDABLE. LIVABLE. IMPROVABLE and YOURS.
