About This Home

As of September 2025

They say in real estate LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! Well, it doesn't get much better in Ames than this Colonial Village 3 Bedrooms and 3 Baths Ranch just steps away from Reiman Gardens and Jack Trice Stadium and also easy access to Hwy 30 for Commuters. This 4-Sided Brick Ranch was built in 1960 and situated on a 16,620 SF Lot (that's 0.38 Acres...that's big) with a 2-Car Attached Garage. You can tell this Home has been well maintained. Shows pride of ownership.
With 1,739 SF on the Main Level plus 1,739 SF in the Basement of which 764 SF is Finished, the possibilities are endless with all that space in a fantastic Layout and Floorplan. From the front, there is a beautiful Covered Front Porch and a built-in Flower Bed (Planters) attached to the Home. The Front Entry greets you immediately with a Built-in Glass Door Display Cabinet, a Coat Closet and a framed view directly to the large Backyard which is a Gardener's Paradise. The Front Great Room has a Gas Fireplace, a 2nd built-in Display Cabinet and it's spacious enough to set up as a combined Formal Living Room and/or Dining Space. You can have both.
In the back of the Home is a Dining area and Family Room with access to the 3-Season Porch (which leads to the Backyard) and the Kitchen with a Pantry Closet which has a Window. The private wing of the Home has 3 Beds and 2 Baths including the Primary Bedroom with an ensuite 3⁄4 Bath and 2 Closets.
That expansive 1,739 SF Basement has a Large Family Room, a 3⁄4 Bath, a non-conforming 4th Bedroom (just needs an Egress Window) and a Huge Den/Rec Room/Office that could also be a 5th non-conforming Bedroom with some modifications and already has 2 Closets. The remaining 975 SF unfinished side of the Basement is the Laundry and Utility area plus a huge Shop area for all your hobbies/work space.
Backyard has a large Concrete Patio and already set up for all your Gardening desires also with mature Concord Grape Vines, Cherry and Apple Trees.
