About This Home

If you’ve been waiting for a home with personality — this is it. This two-story gem in Le Mars offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a generous double garage, all set in one of the community’s most established neighborhoods. Step inside and you’ll find character you just can’t recreate — paired with the updates buyers love. The kitchen has been tastefully refreshed, the both baths remodeled, and electrical improvements completed. It truly feels move-in ready while still keeping its classic charm. Practical features make daily life easier — main floor laundry, a handy mudroom entrance off the back, and a welcoming front porch that’s just begging for a couple rocking chairs. The inviting foyer makes a great first impression for guests. Storage won’t be an issue here! There’s an unfinished lower level ready for your ideas, plus bonus loft storage above the garage with convenient stair access. Location? Hard to beat. You’re just minutes from schools, parks, the YMCA, public pool, and downtown Le Mars. Homes with this much space, charm, and convenience don’t come along every day. Let’s schedule your showing!
