About This Home
As of March 2025This 1.5-story fixer-upper in Council Bluffs, Iowa, is brimming with original charm and potential. The exterior features classic architectural details, with vinyl siding and a gabled roof that adds character to the structure. While the house needs some updates, its solid bones are evident, hinting at its timeless appeal. Inside, the layout includes 3 bedrooms, with two on the main floor and one tucked away in the half-story above. The home retains its original hardwood floors, now in need of refinishing, but they showcase intricate grain patterns that are rare in newer homes. Vintage trim and moldings adorn the doorways and windows, adding to the old-world feel. Large windows in the living areas allow plenty of natural light to stream in, highlighting features like a brick fire place.
