Looking for a large .617 acre lot on the east side with easy access and a newly remodeled home? How about a 3 car garage PLUS a shed with a 1 car garage and lots of extra parking? So much new - from the roof to the basement. Updated kitchen, bathroom and 3 bedrooms; but wait till you see the original 1904 woodwork, refinished hardwood floors, and front door in the living and dining rooms! Laundry hook-ups in back porch off the kitchen so you don't have to navigate the basement stairs. Covered front deck to enjoy beautiful Iowa summers and the home is set back away from the street for your privacy and quiet! You will love the yard space for the kids and pets - even a swing on the tree that was lost in the derecho! And the riding lawnmower will stay! Come and take a peek.
