Property Description

This stunning all-brick home blends timeless charm with modern updates and is currently priced $25,000 below August 2025 appraisal—an incredible value you don’t want to miss. The original woodwork and detailing throughout were once described as “far surpassing any of the houses” remodeled or flipped nearby—and it’s true. If you value authentic quality and tasteful historic character over painted reproduction flash, this home will speak to your soul. This property has never been flipped—it’s been lovingly preserved. Every update has been done purposefully and with respect for its heritage. The gleaming hardwood floors, Edison light fixtures, and stunning stained-glass window remain intact, celebrating the home’s old-world charm. The remodeled kitchen provides modern function while honoring its vintage roots. The finished attic is a peaceful retreat that can be a primary or teenagers dream space.. A 3-season room opens to the fenced backyard, and the original carriage house has been converted to a 3-car garage with loft storage. The fireplace has been updated with gas logs, retaining its historical centerpiece. Set in a diverse, welcoming neighborhood near Drake University, this home has truly stood the test of time—offering a rare chance to own genuine craftsmanship in a world of quick makeovers.
