Description

Step into the heart of Iowa City’s popular Northside neighborhood with this beautifully updated and meticulously maintained home, where historic charm meets modern peace of mind. From the inviting front porch perfect for neighborhood gatherings, you’ll enter a space defined by stunning original woodwork, built-ins, and gleaming hardwood floors throughout. The main level flows seamlessly from a living room featuring a cozy gas fireplace into a formal dining room, and a versatile office with elegant beveled glass French doors. The 2019 kitchen renovation is a chef's delight, boasting crisp white countertops, a deep farm sink, a spacious pantry, and charming vintage tile, complemented by a convenient mudroom and a Bosch dishwasher replaced in 2021. Upstairs, find three spacious bedrooms, closets and ample natural light. The full bath features a luxurious walk-in shower. Freshly painted inside, the home is mechanically sound with a newer furnace (2021), A/C (2019), water heater (2023), and a new Generac whole house generator. Complete with an attached tuck under one car garage (with access to home thru basement), full basement with unending storage, and located just a short stroll from downtown, the University of Iowa, local schools, and favorite restaurants, this Northside gem is truly move-in ready.
