About This Home
As of July 2025Charming 1.5-story home on a corner lot in the heart of Waterloo! This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath gem, built in 1948, offers classic character with thoughtful updates throughout. Step into the welcoming foyer, leading to a spacious living room and separate dining room filled w/natural light—perfect for entertaining without feeling crowded. Noteworthy is windows are double hung for easy cleaning to! Here is an option to think about. Prefer another main-floor primary suite? The dining room could easily be converted into a large bedroom with closet space. The beautifully updated eat-in kitchen (2014) features ample custom cabinetry with crown molding, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of space for family gatherings. The main-floor full bath was tastefully renovated in 2020 with new walls, a tiled shower/tub, updated vanity, modern lighting, & flooring. Upstairs you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms and a convenient half bath. The lower level includes a workshop area, shower, storage room (with freezer to stay), and an extra-deep 1-car garage. Enjoy evenings outdoors on the stamped 17x18.5 patio, and keep things tidy with the 10x10 painted and shingled storage shed complete with loft. Additional 2 parking spots in the alley and off-street parking, plus a fenced yard with three entry gates and a vehicle gate. All within walking distance to the fantastic uptown amenities of Waterloo. Home is being sold AS IS—don’t miss your opportunity to make it your own!
