About This Home

As of November 2022

This historic home is nestled amongst mature trees on 3.86 acres, approximately 10 minutes from downtown Iowa City. Welcome to a gardener's paradise thanks to diverse plantings, mature garden areas, a field garden, trails, and nature at every turn. Brimming with authentic character this home and property were featured in Room Magazine. Stained glass windows in doors and hardwood floors throughout the main and upper levels bring a sense of bygone charm. Sweeping views of the surrounding woods thanks to large picture windows in the living, dining, and breakfast areas. The main living area is open concept and boasts exposed brick details and a wood-burning fireplace insert. A comfortable kitchen offers ample cabinet space and a moveable island that remains with the property. White-painted wood floors bring a stylish transition to the main-floor bedroom, currently used as an office. The upper level consists of three large bedrooms, as well as a full bath with access to knee-wall storage. Two covered porches, one off the kitchen and the other just off the office/bedroom, are perfect areas to enjoy the outdoors. An unfinished basement has a door to the exterior and is large enough for hobby enthusiasts to have workshop areas. A large outbuilding is currently used as a workshop area and has two large doors making vehicle storage a breeze. This unique property is just outside city limits with a nature retreat feel, yet moments from it all.
