Recent remodeled: Located in one of Iowa City’s oldest and most treasured neighborhoods, within the historic Lucas Farms area, this spacious two-story home blends timeless character with thoughtful care. Set on a large, beautifully landscaped lot along a peaceful, quiet street, the setting is as special as the home itself. Local legend has it that famed racehorse Larry Ginter is buried nearby, adding to the rich sense of history that surrounds the property. A welcoming, wide front porch invites you to slow down and enjoy the charm of the neighborhood. Inside, you’ll find recently deep cleaned and waxed hardwood floors, beautiful built-ins and trim also recently painted, and architectural details that reflect true craftsmanship. The home has been lovingly lived in and is ready for the next owners to create memories of their own. Featuring 5 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms, this residence offers generous living space with flexibility for today’s lifestyle. Gracious living and dining areas provide room to gather, while the expansive lot offers outdoor beauty and privacy. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Iowa City history in an exceptional location.
