Set in the heart of Ames, 926 Grand Avenue is where space, lifestyle, and location come together. This 4-bedroom, 3-bath farmhouse-style home offers 1,776 square feet in one of the city's most connected, walkable neighborhoods on the edge of the historic district. This address changes how you experience the city. Coffee, groceries, the downtown Farmers' Market, Main Street dining, Roosevelt Park, and Brookside Park are all part of everyday life. With CyRide nearby, quick access to Iowa State University, and Cyclone athletics within reach, everything Ames offers is right here. The two-story layout provides usable space for gathering, hosting, everyday life, and Thanksgiving tables filled with family and long conversations that run late into the night. You don't really ''go into town'' here -- you're already in it. And that shows up every day in how simple life feels, and how close everything is when you step outside your door.
