About This Home
Stunning full restoration of a late-1800s Victorian located in the Drake
Neighborhood revitalization district. This 5 bed, 2 full bath + 3/4 bath home has
undergone a complete renovation over the past 11 months through Invest DSM’s
Single-Family Developer Grant Program. Updates include new Hardie siding with
era-accurate Victorian profile, restored and refinished hardwood floors, new 10”
Victorian baseboards, solid-core interior doors, updated floorplan, and modern
mechanicals. Over 25% of the foundation has been replaced and the third floor
includes a second furnace with potential to finish for additional living space.
Second floor laundry and spacious primary suite. Tax abatement on the improved
value. Located near parks, shops, and Drake University
