About This Home

As of October 2025

Great opportunity to acquire a Ranch home in NE Grinnell on a large corner lot! As you walk through the front door, you are met by a nice-sized living room that transitions into the kitchen. The kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances and painted cabinets with updated hardware. The living room, kitchen and hallway have updated laminate flooring. Down the hall, there are 3 bedrooms and the full bathroom. All three bedrooms have original hardwood flooring. The bathroom features a linen closet for extra storage and updated laminate flooring. Additionally, the bathroom mirror, lighting fixture and fan are new. You will find the main floor laundry in the breezeway that is situated between the kitchen and attached, oversized 2-car garage. Venturing to the basement, you arrive at a large family room that offers extra space for entertaining friends and family. There is a non-conforming 4th bedroom, half bath, and utility/storage room in the basement as well. Don't forget about the insulated shop area and extra storage space that is attached to the oversized 2-car garage. Additionally, there is a large fully-fenced yard on the north side of the house. You will enjoy a low maintenance exterior as this property has a new roof, siding, windows, soffit, fascia, and gutters as of 2023. Washer & Dryer are not included. 24 hour notice required for showings. This one won't last long. Call your local agent today to schedule a showing!
