Warm natural light and a layout designed for flexible living. Located near Meeker Elementary, the home offers added convenience for families, plus two distinct gathering spaces that easily accommodate entertaining, working from home, or creating a dedicated playroom or media retreat. The inviting eat-in kitchen features a cozy breakfast nook perfect for casual meals and morning coffee, while a lower-level storage area provides valuable space for seasonal items and household essentials. Outdoors, the fenced and beautifully shaded backyard feels like a private sanctuary, framed by mature trees and enriched with spaces for gardening, play, and relaxation. The sun lit raised deck off the kitchen is ideal for outdoor dining or quiet afternoons with a book, and the brick patio with a fire pit expands your options for evening gatherings. A playset with a sandbox adds charm and functionality for families. Conveniently located near Miracle Park, Homewood Golf Course, North Grand Mall, Hospital, and Interstate 35. With ample room to grow, a versatile floor plan, and a serene outdoor backdrop, this home invites buyers to bring their vision and create something truly special. ## Location - **Address:** 1821 Maxwell Avenue, Ames, IA 50010 - **County:** Story - **Coordinates:** 42.040223, -93.608367 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=42.040223,-93.608367 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Jatin Patel · **License:** S74080 - **Brokerage:** Friedrich Iowa Realty - **Broker Phone:** (515) 232-6175 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/1821-Maxwell-Ave_Ames_IA_50010_M85608-11736?f=listhub&s=CIBORIA&m=71153&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f1930762849r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f3267836422r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f2200990441r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f3907464623r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f3117335396r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f240581482r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f3741238236r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f645085318r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f4073336389r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f2170660985r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f1788617234r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f1802851876r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f1511621221r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f2607853337r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f2098199141r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f96023254r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f951488681r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f1407301075r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f2464343885r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f2035448308r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f3195743666r.jpg) ![1821 Maxwell Avenue - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/5e7e1ef6b5403d62d8f56f5089837b0el-f1219465735r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 71153 | **Updated:** 2026-10-27 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Central Iowa Board of Realtors, Inc.
