About This Home
Location, Character, and Endless Potential!
Just one block from both Grinnell College and downtown, this charming property offers a prime location with flexibility to match. Currently configured as an up/down duplex, it can easily be converted back into a single-family residence if desired.
Each 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom unit features its own private exterior entrance, beautifully refinished hardwood floors, spacious kitchens, and comfortable living rooms. Both kitchens and bathrooms have seen thoughtful updates, and the upper unit boasts fresh interior paint and in-unit laundry located in the bathroom.
The HVAC systems and water heaters for both units are located in the basement. A new roof and full exterior paint job were completed in July 2025, ensuring peace of mind for years to come.
