About This Home

As of June 2025

Welcome to 2535 Vernon Court SE, a masterfully renovated 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Cedar Rapids’ sought-after Vernon Village. Originally built in 1928, this 2.5-story stucco-frame home blends period charm with over a decade of thoughtful updates—creating a one-of-a-kind living experience. Nearly finished basement, attic areas, and above garage loft make the total living and storage space of this home close to 4000 sq ft! Step inside to find restored hardwood floors, a formal dining room, an eat-in kitchen, and a cozy living room with a fireplace – perfect for everyday living or entertaining. A remodeled home office with custom built-ins, dual workstations, ample lighting, and heated tile floors makes working from home a pleasure. There's even a walkout to the stamped patio AND the furniture stays! Don’t miss the second-floor veranda, backyard patio, and the charming custom arched front door—true highlights of this architectural gem. Recent upgrades include a new roof, premium Lennox furnace & A/C with WiFi thermostat, all-new double-pane, custom-colored windows, gutter helmet system, new stainless chimney cap, and insulated attic and ductwork for year-round efficiency. The finished basement features a media area (near completion), workout area, and a custom wine cellar.
