About This Home

As of December 2025

Impeccably maintained mid-century modern ranch home situated in a quiet northwest neighborhood. This stylish home has been thoughtfully updated inside and out, featuring fresh paint, crisp white trim and baseboards, and new laminate flooring on the main level (2020). The well-designed eat-in kitchen includes a breakfast bar, generous cabinetry, and newer appliances—microwave and oven (2019), and dishwasher (2024). The main level offers a bright and welcoming living room that flows seamlessly into the dining and kitchen areas, along with three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath. The finished lower level provides fantastic additional living space with a large rec room, full bath & laundry room, and an extra bedroom—perfect for guests, a home office, or hobbies. An attached two-car garage provides easy access to the kitchen, back deck, and partially fenced yard—ideal for outdoor entertaining. Major updates include a new furnace (2019). Conveniently located with quick access to all of Cedar Rapids, this move-in ready home offers great value and timeless mid-century charm.
