This home needs some finishing work, but has lots of potential. Enter the home through the mud room, then into the main level with living room, dining area, kitchen, bath and one bedroom. There are three additional bedrooms in the upper level as well as a flex area. Make this your office, workout area, or a place for the kids to play. If you are looking for a big yard, this is the home for you!! Lots of grassy areas for your kids/pets to play and to build a big garage...or whatever you desire. Nice big mature trees line the back and side of the lot. Great location close to the Iowa State Fair Grounds, minutes from downtown, Altoona and Pleasant Hill.
