Set along the river in Cedar Falls, this raised-ranch home offers a rare combination of peaceful scenery, thoughtful updates, and exceptional garage space. Stepping inside reveals an open floor plan designed for comfortable daily living, with several skylights bringing natural light into the main gathering areas and creating a bright, welcoming atmosphere. The 1,430-square-foot interior includes three bedrooms and two bathrooms, along with updates that make the home ready to enjoy from day one. New flooring and fresh paint give the living spaces a clean, cohesive feel, while the renovated bathrooms and new appliances add modern convenience. A gas fireplace anchors the living area, offering a comfortable place to gather on cool evenings while maintaining an easy connection between the kitchen, dining, and relaxation spaces. The bedrooms are arranged across the home to provide flexibility for family, guests, an office, or hobbies. The master bedroom serves as a comfortable retreat, while the additional rooms offer practical space that can adapt as your needs change. Outside, the half-acre lot extends toward the river, creating a setting that feels removed from the everyday while remaining close to Cedar Falls amenities. The deck overlooks the water and offers a natural place for morning coffee, outdoor meals, or quiet evenings watching the landscape change with the seasons. The nearby bike trail is only steps away, and Black Hawk Park is close enough to make walking, biking, fishing, and time outdoors part of your regular routine. Storage, workshop, and parking options are another standout feature. The property includes a detached two-stall garage, an additional one-stall garage, and a complete lower-level garage beneath the home. The under-house garage is insulated and climate controlled, making it especially useful for vehicles, equipment, projects, or year-round workspace. With river frontage, multiple updates, versatile garage facilities, and direct access to some of the area’s best outdoor recreation, this home offers a lifestyle that is both practical and restorative. Experience the setting, the views, and the flexibility this distinctive Cedar Falls property provides.
