About This Home
Welcome to this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bath home nestled in one of the most beloved neighborhoods—Gingerbread Lane, known for its decades-long holiday tradition and warm sense of community. This home offers the perfect blend of comfort, functionality, and sustainability, with thoughtful upgrades inside and out. Inside, you'll find spacious living areas featuring luxury vinyl plank flooring (installed in 2021) on the main floor and plush carpet throughout the rest of the home. The energy-efficient Pella bedroom windows (2022) help keep utility bills low while bringing in ample natural light. The attached garage is equipped with a Level 2 EV charging outlet, and a Simplisafe security system with door sensors and cameras is already set up and ready to go. Essential systems are covered: newer roof, a radon mitigation system and sump pump with battery backup. Step outside into a true suburban paradise. The fenced-in backyard offers peaceful privacy while the front yard is a pollinator’s dream—blooming from April to October with dozens of perennial Iowa natives, plus a springtime burst of tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths from the bulb garden. But the crown jewel? Your very own food forest. This mature and productive edible landscape includes: raspberries, strawberries and all kinds of fruit trees. A native wisteria shades the front door, creating a fairytale entryway. This home offers something truly special for every season.
