About This Home
Cheaper than renting and ready to move in with updates done for you while character has still been left! This cute & cozy bungalow offers so much in its small package - original wood floors & booth in kitchen nook, newer 12x24 LVT flooring in the bathroom & kitchen, fresh paint, a bathroom off of the bedroom (jack-and-jill style), new vanity & toilet in the bathroom, new kitchen faucet, newer appliances throughout, a fenced backyard, large front porch, a 1-car garage (best suited for snowblower, lawnmower, bikes, etc due to the position of the garage compared to the driveway) w/ a newer garage door and extra side entry, and much more. Great location near the new Trailside Elementary w/ easy access to any part of Cedar Rapids. Everything is ready for immediate move-in! NFC financing is available and listing agent is related to seller.
