About This Home

There's something special about a Craftsman style home that just feels right and this one, set on a corner lot in the heart of Ames' Campustown, is no exception. Just steps from Iowa State University, Jack Trice Stadium, and Hilton Coliseum, it blends everyday comfort with an unbeatable location. Inside, hardwood floors and a cozy gas fireplace create a warm, inviting living space, while French doors lead to a sun-filled den or flex space. The kitchen is both functional and beautiful, featuring granite countertops, a tile backsplash, newer appliances, and crisp white cabinetry with a pantry for extra storage.The dining area, with its own fireplace, a hidden TV, and easy access to the wrap-around composite deck, was made for gathering, which adds even more charm to this already beautiful home. A mudroom and an updated 3/4 bath round out the main floor space. Upstairs offers three comfortable bedrooms, a full bath, and second floor laundry. With major updates like a new HVAC system (2025), newer windows, a new refrigerator, and a 30-year roof, this home is a thoughtful blend of character, comfort, and modern ease in one of Ames' most desirable locations.
