Explore this historic foursquare, ready for a comprehensive renovation and brimming with potential. The home offers 2,977 square feet across the first and second floors, plus 529 square feet of finished living space in the attic. The home's excellent location puts you minutes from downtown and the hospital, just one block from Grinnell College, and a five-minute walk from Ahrens Park. Step onto the welcoming covered front porch and discover original woodwork, arched entryways, hardwood floors, and generous space for entertaining. The main floor features a spacious foyer with a grand staircase, plus a second staircase off the kitchen, along with a living room, parlor, and dining room. Conveniently, the laundry is located off the kitchen. A walk-in shower was added to the main-level bath this summer. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a study, and a bathroom. Continue to the finished attic to find two additional bedrooms and a storage room-an area filled with possibilities. Though unfinished, the basement provides tons of storage space. The interior is ready for updating, while exterior improvements include a new roof and paint. Storm doors on the east side of the home were replaced this fall. Natural light fills the home, and the two east-facing sunrooms offer great possibilities. The garage in need of TLC, accessible from the alley, has room for three vehicles. Don't miss the chance to bring your vision to this structurally sound home. Come see how you can make it truly special!
